Will Arnett, Neil Patrick Harris star in Eat Lead

by Justin McElroy on Oct 28th 2008 2:26PM

Remember a long time ago (OK, so it was at 8 a.m) when we complained about Eat Lead's generic game design and other problems we spotted during a demonstration? Well, forget them, because they've just been rendered moot by star power.

What kind of stars, you ask? Well, how about Will Arnett of Arrested Development fame as lead Matt Hazard? Still not sold? OK, fair enough. But what if were were to promise ... ready? ... Doogie Houser himself, Neil Patrick Harris as publishing boss Wallace "Wally" Wellesley?! Yeah, we thought you'd change your tune.

Take note, game publishers: Put NPH in your games and you can make them as generic as you please. Hell, we're ready to fax D3 our $60, just to make sure we Eat Lead as soon as possible. We're suckers like that.

DAY ONE, MOTHERFUCKERS!

*queues up The Final Countdown in iTunes*

Curse you joystiq comments
*downvotes self*

So how much would you pay for an actual Doogie Houser game starring NPH?

MY FUCKING SOUL.

Well I wasn't GOING to buy it, but if Neil Patrick Harris is in it, well...a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

Don't plan the plan if you can't follow through. All that matters taking matters into your own hands. Soon I'll control everything.... my wish is your comma---

Yeah, that made it a sale for me. I don't know why, but Harris is still cool in some weird cult way. I mean hell, who else could make that picture on a unicorn work?!

STAND BACK EVERYONE
Nothing here to see
Just imminent danger-
In the middle of it me
Yes
Captain Hammer's here
Hair blowing in the breeze
The day needs my saving expertise!

It looks like for this game

It's a brand new day
And the sun is high
All the bloggers sing
that you're gonna die
Go ahead and laugh
NPH is a funny guy
Its a brand new day...

Seriously joystiq, zero dr. horrible references? Zero?!

I like you guys! Let's make out. :)

*slobber*

Doogie

*giggles

I just wanted to say, Doogie.

*giggles again

Lol....

NPH FTW!

Dr. Horrible has a UNICORN?!

It gives him magical mayonnaise for his sandwiches and all he has to do is rub its horn.

Actually, that is Good Horse, to whom Bad Horse is evil twin.

Wonderflonium = Unicorn extract

BTW, teh gheyz or not, I just wanted to say his character (Barney) on How I Met Your Mother is AWESOME!!! Simply AWESOME!

I think what you're trying to say is...Swarley is..

Legen...

wait for it...

DARY

High Five, c'mon don't leave me hangin bro!

Neil Poon Handler! I love that guy in everything he is in.

But I don't know if I can give you a high five... Hahaha

I love How I Met Your Mother so much =)

Hey Fenix!

Across-the-intertubes high five!

Oh yeah!

*High fives HH

OH COME ON!

It's a shame you probably won't be adequately upvoted for that.

Yeah, the guy riding the unicorn is gonna be in a game with the guy wearing the $6000 suit. COME ON!!!

-What do you think the PH stands for in NPH?
-Patrick Harris
-No, common mistake. Poon Handler.

Dr. Horrible? In a game? I'm down.

Hopefully he'll break out in song while he's at it.

Hells ya! WWNPHD?

All bow to Doogie!

I am buying this game!

NPH in a game?

DAY ONE PURCHASE.

And by the way, Will Arnet was a fucking comedic genius in Arrested Development. Who could forget GOB?

"I'M GONNA LIVE FOREVER!!"
^^^^^

If this confuses you, watch this.

http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/4f551b0252/will-arnett-human-giant-sex-tape-from-human-giant-and-will-arnett

i think i just blue myself
(there has to be a better way to say that)

yay GOB

I'll e-mail you my $60 to make sure I get in on the ground floor!

Win.

im gonna rock out with my cock out

I keep forgetting that NPH likes the CACK, somehow it makes him even cooler in my book (no homo).

NEIL MOTHER FUCKIN' PATRICK HARRIS!!!

will arnett is probably the funniest man alive. I will buy this game for the comedic splendor

"And I won't feeeeel.....a thing."

God I love Dr. Horrible. and I love the awesomeness that is NPH.

I've made a huge mistake...

for not wanting this game early today

awww I want a unicorn, and a leather coat.........and Neil Patrick Harris

The game is going to be pretty average, but it's exactly the sort of thing that's going to build up a cult following regardless of it's gameplay flaws.

will arnett and neil patrick harris put this game on my watch list for future purchase

NPH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
