Musical Gaming
A product of a wasted evening
Music and gaming are two of the world’s biggest moneymakers and with albums containing more and more special features such as videos and interviews, why don’t music and games combine? If band’s albums contained ‘special bonus games’ – surely they would sell better and people might not turn to bad awful fileshare software which makes poor multi-millionaire music producers unable to fill their swimming pools with caviar any more. Here are some of my ideas:
Eminem:
The Slim Shady LP album contains the track with the lyrics, “Will the real slim shady please stand up!” therefore the game to accompany the album should be a ‘Where’s Wally’ Style game. Several locations will appear on your screen filled with bogus bleached-blonde rappers and it is up to you to target the correct one. Levels where you have to spot shady will include the Grammy’s (He will be the one punching Moby), his old trailer park home and an Eminem look-alike contest. The add-on game is something that will surely spice up Eminem’s album and stop him droning on about his mum or his ex wife for once.
TATU:
The Transylvanian lesbian pop duo’s album could contain a game to accompany their ‘controversial video’, which made them famous. The game could involve a nice bit of lesbian rioting, lesbian wet T-shirt contests and a lesbian web browser (You must be 18!). You could take control of either of the girls and lead them on feminism marches in their poverty stricken country. Of course there is a twist, you have to attack riot police, burn your bras and get off with as many other women as is humanly possible. When the riot police come with the water canons, the game turns into a lesbian wet T-shirt contest, the wettest woman wins! You have to throw yourself (and other women) in front of the water streams and then a lesbian judge will crown the most soaking competitor the winner. They say sex sells; I want to buy this already!
Staind:
The American rockers most famous song is named ‘Outside’ – so why not make a game based around the track? The game could be based on a bloke who comes back from a heavy night from drinking to find he is locked out! You have to find another method of entering the house so you don’t have to sleep in the rain. Scattered around the outside of the house will be the tools of your trade (e.g. a half brick, a hook shot and a crowbar). It shouldn’t be a particularly hard game but hey, you get to break things!
Sum41
The punk bands most famous song, ‘In too deep’ will be highlighted in the game on their album superbly. You play as the Sum41 crew and are trapped on a nuclear submarine 600 feet below surface. You are literally in too deep. The water pressure is squashing the submarine and it is up to you to rock your way out. You have to play groovy music in an attempt to raise the sub and live happily ever after. If you fail to raise the submarine then you will be just another additive in Birdseye fish fingers.
Limp Bizkit
Fred Durst, the blue-eyed whinge-pot and his misfit posse’s best song is entitled, Break Stuff, and what a good name for one of today’s action/shooting games. The aim of the game is simple; you break stuff! You walk around the local Tesco with a baseball bat and smash anything and everything in sight. Points are awarded for everything you bash and more points are awarded for getting more valuable things such as Ming vases and the security guards legs. All the while the heart crippling bass guitar is booming away as background music. A violent game by anyone’s standards but if Vice City is allowed on the market then this will be allowed too!
Oasis
A popular song from their Heathen Chemistry (their worst album yet, might I add) is The Hindu Times; this could quite easily be a Bollywood film or a new age video game. You take the role of an Indian journalist who works for the newspaper The Hindu Times. You have to collect stories on your 15mph scooter and get back to the office in time to meet the deadline. You will have to push your investigative work as well as your writing skills to the limit in this fast paced journalistic journey. Surely this will be the greatest game to ever have come out of India; in fact it will be the only game…
Blink 182
The punk rocker’s song named ‘Aliens Exist’ is a great basis for a game. You would take the role of an investigator who is trying to prove that we are not alone in the universe. You use your guitar gun to break into Area 51 and steal an alien life form to prove to the world that aliens exist. You will be faced with enemies such as the FBI, the CIA and Bill Gates however they can be easily overcome by rocking them with a funky tune. However I think this could sound a little too much like an episode of the X-Files.
Snoop Dogg
The age-old rap star could have a game devoted to his name. Snoop Dogg’s kennel catastrophe. Old Snoop has been left in the kennels whilst his owners go on holiday and a canine riot breaks loose. You will have to rap the other dogs back into their cages within a time limit so mean Mr Dre the kennel keeper doesn’t find out. Or you have the option to risk it big and go on a homeward bound, back to the Snoop crib where all the b*tches hang out!
Outkast
The newest song from Outkast is the mind-numbing Hey Ya, which could be converted to a game where a really annoying song is played over and over and over again on Radio 1, and it is up to you to stop it. Maybe with guns and stuff, you could probably stand to waste some people, erm, yeah.

I just bought it off ebay and would be a pleasant surprise.

I think a Deftones album actually had a game, in the enhanced portion of the CD. I haven't got it though, don't get your hopes up.
Hhahahahaha
"rap dogs back into their cages"
