Gamespot have posted a preview of Whacked!, an upcoming game from Microsoft/Presto Studios which includes online playability. Here is a snippet of the preview:
The game itself features some very tongue-in-cheek humor, as evidenced by its "host," Van Tastic. Sporting a face that's 50 percent toothy smile and 50 percent big pompadour, Van looks like Elvis and Wink Martindale's love child. Oozing smarmy charm, Van serves as your emcee throughout the game via cutscenes and voice-overs during actual gameplay. The clichéd game-show conventions are all on hand in garish form: neon lights, a cheering audience, and mystery prizes.
