Family Guy will feature the offbeat humour of the show's writers in an action/adventure game focusing on the lovable oaf Peter Griffin, his world domination-obsessed son Stewie and their talking, martini-drinking dog, Brian. Throughout the game, these popular characters wreak havoc in many of the same locations depicted in the animated series.Beginning September 2, all U.S. Xbox 360 owners will be able to purchase full episode downloads from seasons one and two of the hit series, as well as "Family Guy Presents Stewie Griffin -- The Untold Story." Xbox LIVE users, which make up the largest online console gaming community on any gaming console, will be able to load up on the eclectic "Family Guy" household. Created and executive produced by Seth MacFarlane, the Emmy Award-winning animated comedy has become more than a television show, growing into a full-fledged cultural phenomenon.
"'Family Guy' is a perfect match for Xbox LIVE," stated Fox's McCabe. "The Xbox LIVE community will love having the Griffin family on this platform."
Microsoft's Honey said, "It's exciting that Xbox LIVE users are going to be amongst the first to be able to download 'Family Guy' and add these episodes to their digital library of entertainment. This series is so popular on TV; it's sure to be a hit on the service."
