Michael Jackson video game

Michael Jackson video game

Controversial king of pop Michael Jackson has a video game coming out on Wii, PS2 and PS3.

According to the press release, the game will include many of Michael's songs, trademark dance moves and videos for the "whole family to enjoy" (especially kids?).

Fans of Michael can also catch up with him on his "This is it" tour which kicks off next month.

*UPDATE* - Since Michael's untimely death on June 25th it's uncertain what will happen with this game. Oh and btw the tour's off.

I think I'll pass, most likely it's not worth the money and if prior games can tell us, it's not.

Why not make the game? Maybe to honor him because he died on june 25 2009 or yesterday if you're reading this today on the 26th. And when I said honor, I didn't mean honor him dying or yay he died I meant make people remember him or something.

I'm guessing this was canceled.

Canceled? Are you serious? Sales will soar now that MJ is dead. It's almost as if the game designers killed him.

I dunno. I thought maybe he could have been working on it somehow, maybe with voice work.

Why not make a game about him and his history and dancing.

We all loved (and still do) his music and awesome dance moves. Will be a hit amongst fans, just look how quickly the tickets went in the UK. The game should be a hit, singing games always are.

Why don't they make a game where you walk down the city streets of L.A. as an 8 year old boy, intentionally avoiding Michael Jackson chasing you.

I can't believe that they would cancel this. It's only common sense that if they released this game, sales would go beyond soaring, especially after his death. I hope it does come out though, because I would definitely buy it.

I love Michael. Just wish they could make a game like sing star or a game where you can actually learn his moves (that would be cool) but I dunno. I hope so anyways, Michael forever xxx.

Ok this is weird, I am reading this on 19th August 2010 and we still haven't had any info on this game so I would say it's postponed at least. It's been a year since he died and they still haven't even advertised it yet. R.I.P MJ.
