Diner Dash

Five-million-selling casual series coming to Xbox LIVE Arcade on November 18th.

San Mateo, Calif. – November 2nd, 2009 – Hudson Entertainment is preparing to serve up a piping hot helping of Diner Dash® on November 18th for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. A new version of Diner Dash, the award-winning casual game franchise created by PlayFirst that has sold over five million units, is coming to Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the first time.

Diner Dash will feature the classic gameplay that fans have come to adore along with updated HD graphics,” said Sabine Duvall, vice president of product development at Hudson Entertainment. “With a brand-new 8-person multiplayer mode, a whole new group of players are going to enjoy Diner Dash.”

Diner Dash will come to life in 3D on next generation consoles when players have the option to take direct control of Flo as she runs around to seat patrons, take orders, deliver food, receive payment and bus tables as efficiently as possible within the time limit allowed. Players fond of the traditional control schemes may also use a point-and-click style with hotkeys to aid Flo in her quest for customer satisfaction, which is reflected in a heart meter that empties as customers lose patience. If the meter empties completely, then the customer will leave the restaurant. Servers looking to play with co-workers can join with up to seven other players in multiplayer across four diners in Team Dash or go 1 on 1 in head-to-head mode.
