Ah, I bet you thought I was going to use “Make it work!” in the headline to describe the recent news that Atari is bringing a Project Runway game to the Wii. The popular phrase is the most well-known thing to come out of the hit Bravo Lifetime reality show for people that have never seen it.

But I have not only seen Project Runway, I watch it each week on a regular basis and know all the ins and “auf”s of the show. So, instead of “Make it work!” I decided to channel Season 4 winner Christian Siriano and drop a “Hot mess!” for all you fans out there.

Aaaaand … now I’m realizing I should not be proud of any of this and am super humiliated I told you.

So, uh, yeah. Atari is bringing a Project Runway game to the Wii. It comes out next year. And you can use the Wii Balance Board to strut down the runway and show off your newly designed fashions to the virtual judges. I’ll probably be buying it. Thoughts?

Guys?
