Ep.1: The Concept

Six teams of up-and-coming devs compete in IGN's new reality competition show, The Next Game Boss, for a prize package worth $10,000!

You can watch the second episode of Next Game Boss here:

In the premiere episode, the contestants are given the challenge to create a video game concept but are thrown two last minute twists: they can only use one button for player input and it must also be PC compatible! Watch the first episode, hosted by IGN's Naomi Kyle with Daemon Hatfield as Head Judge and Craig Derrick from LucasArts as the special guest judge then leave us a comment below and answer this week's question: which team are you rooting for?

13 minutes of heaven

Bean team!!! 1up.... Uhh... my comments always at the end...

[lowemission69]

Holy shit they must have got their concept of this show from the horror genre because the black guy is the first to die !! team circle strafe are the first to get booted off the show !! HAHAHAHAH !!

[MarkChurch]

i havent seen the other episodes yet but i think cycles and stargazer were the best pitches. awesome show!

[n0cturnuss]

Hats off to IGN for a great show. But the judges sucks bad. Too fake/american idol faggotry. The judges need to be people who are at the top of their trade. Not some random IGN staffs. (I dont mind Naomi though, she can sit there and look pretty, but I would prefer a more qualified person to judge.)

GO TEAM BEAN

[dxmkrew]

Team Bean had the best concept and the best visual presentation. I still don't understand that sewer level game. This episode is where you lost me.

[ImTheBlackJesus]

There's always at least one douche in shows like this. The douche in this show happens to be that black guy on team circle strafe.

What a fucking tool.

[spanishforyou123]

This is like The Tester...but actually GOOD! The contestants have experience and the episodes are short and sweet. Plus. No drama
