Gamervision reports: "Thought Brütal Legend was going to be the most metal game of 2009? Think again. The entertainment powerhouse known as Dethklok will be getting an Xbox Live and PSN game this year, confirmed Brendon Small in an interview with the Wallstreet Journal. Konami is publishing the title, which will go by the incredibly metal name Metalocalypse: Dethgame, and has players controlling roadies for the group, fighting in the service of Dethklok."
According to reports circulating the internet, Metalocalypse: Dethgame, the game based on the Adult Swim TV series has been axed.
Adult Swim retracted their licence and thus ending development of the game due for release on PSN (Playstation Network) and Xbox Live Arcade.
Looked crap. I'm guessing it woulda ripped off of Brutal Legend, which by the way was a mean ass game!
I'm glad it was canned. I didn't seem like it was gonna do the series any justice.
wow this game must have sucked because it was way deep into the dev cycle, it was playable over a year ago
PSX Extreme writes: "If you're at all familiar with the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim lineup, you've certainly heard of "Metalocalypse," an off-the-wall animated headbanger-fest for hardcore fans of the music genre in question. Now, if you're a fan, you've likely been asking yourself, "gee, I wonder when they're going to make a game based on my favorite cartoon?" After all, they've already done it several times in the past, and they've even gone so far as to give an Internet comic strip (Penny Arcade) their own downloadable video games. Well, Konami is stepping in and giving developer Frozen Codebase a chance to appeal to all you metalheads out there with Metalocalypse: Dethgame, which is slated to release later this year on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Marketplace."
Just in time for Comic-Con, Konami officially announced that it's publishing a downloadable game based on hit Adult Swim show Metalocalypse. Earlier today, G4TV dropped into the publisher's hotel suite for a very brief first hands-on with Metalocalypse: Dethgame. It seems like a strange comparison, but the gameplay style reminds them most of No More Heroes.
this game will be so terrible. I can't believe someone is wasting the time and money to make it...
YES!!
Dude, XBLA is getting so many games, I don't know which ones to buy.
YES!!! This is going to be so metal! DETHKOLK RULES!
The show is awesome, but you know this game is gonna blow.
Hopefully as good as The Dishwasher
