Dirty Dancing becomes a game. Codemasters Online Gaming has revealed it's working on the project, which brings the iconic dancing film to PC. There's still little information about it, although the studio Lionsgate is confident the game will make for an instant hit.

Anne Parducci, executive vice president of marketing at Lionsgate says:

"Dirty Dancing delivers compelling subject matter that has all the tools to become an instant hit online. The movie appeals to audiences of all ages and continues to win over new fans through increased exposure from the highly successful DVDs and multiple airings on cable.

For two decades, girls and women have identified with Baby, and through this wonderful game from Codemasters, they will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in her world like never before."

Dirty Dancing first appeared in 1987 and tells the story of a young lady who meets an experienced dance instructor. It's a film filled with emotions, love and of course dancing.
