Earlier today it was announced that Major League Eating: The Game will be launching exclusively for WiiWare on July 14th, 2008. If there's anyone out there who loves to play food-eating simulators then get ready to battle it out against some of the world's most glorious gurgitory athletes! This involves mastering moves like biting and burping; all while chewing at high-speeds.

"Top level competitive eaters are more than brilliant athletes and tacticians, they are more than fierce competitors. These brave men and women are artists of the alimentary canal, warriors who create living poetry with each wiggle of the epiglottis. Each gurgitator is like a classical musician in a symphony of salivation, A pile of hot dogs sing like a Stradivarius in the hands, mouth and stomach of maestros like Joey Chestnut or Takeru Kobayashi. It took more than thirty artists, engineers and designers, and of course the Wii's motion sensitive controller and excellent online abilities, to recreate the Major League Eating experience as a videogame. But we did it."- Bill Swartz, Head Woof at Mastiff.

Who plans on eating their way to the top? Personally, eating for fun has always been a great way to pass time, but sadly I can't help but feel that pretending to eat can't be as good as the real thing. I suppose eating this way you can avoid piling on the pounds!
