It would be interesting but not for me. I do know a ton of people that would snag it in a heart beat though.

Do you just want to look at the ladies? Because really all the game requires is a random number generator and the ability to do basic probability to determine the bankers payout vs what could be in your suitcase.... the graphics would be more time consuming than anything.

I admit being guilty of watching the show on occasion but seriously... wow. Part of the game being on TV is the suspense... so they'd have to dish that in a guess.

You're quite right in the fact that it isn't very hard to code. However, it's a brand and trademark that belongs to some very executive people, so the best you can do is petition for now :(

Would make a good free promotional game. If NBC could give away a code on the air or on their website that was good for a free download of the game it would be cool.

There's plenty of other versions of the game out there: web, cell phone, DVD, stand alone handheld, arcade, etc. I'd get it if it were free, but I don't think I'd pay for it.

i'm surprised that some of the gameshow games haven't been made on apps... the tv networks should definitely consider making them! i would buy deal or no deal and who wants to be a millionaire in a heart beat.

I'd love a Deal or No Deal. I like the concept of the game and on the iPhone, it would be even better.
