DETHGAME trademark surfaces for game based on Metalocalypse

by David Hinkle on May 15th 2009 11:45AM

The world's most famous band, Dethklok, is set to invade the games market, as a recent trademark filing by Cartoon Network suggests. This downloadable title will be called METALOCALYPSE: DETHGAME, and could be as jarring and invasive as something spelled with all capital letters suggests. Oh, and we're sure there will be blood. Lots of blood and guts, because that's metal.

The trademark suggests describes DETHGAME as "downloadable video games distributed via the internet," though no other specific information was mentioned. So, we're not sure if this potential game is planned for PC only, or if it will arrive on home consoles. With the creators of the show forming their own game company, we wonder if they'll have a hand in this.

The Metalocalypse has begun!

Gentlemen, it seems Dethklok is set to invade the videogame world. This could be a disaster. Here is our video game expert, Doctor Hinkle. Video gamers are by nature are highly trained killing machines with a deathcult like devotion to their consoles. If Dethklok were to release a game they would unify and become a lethal killing force.

+10 to THE WICKER MAN

Can playing the game kill/dismember you?

No, but playing with a cheesegrater can, so put it down.

Whoah, that's brutal.

As long as we can summon a lake troll and then go out and drink 100 beers.

Oh please let there be Mustakrakish!

It's about time.

Hey! I gots a reals cools codspiece too!

Uhh, that's a dildo...

What?

Yeah, a strap-on dildo

Now all we need is Season 3 to air.

Supposed to be this Fall, according to a bump i saw on AS

This is dildos. The most brutal band of all time needs to have its own add-on for rockband or gh. Either way this will still be the most brutal of all downloadable games.

Correct. I would jizz in my pants if 'Go Into The Water' was up as GH DLC.

Wasn't "Thunderhorse" in one of the previous iterations of Guitar Hero? In any case, IT NEEDS MORE BRUTALITY (I'd scream for my cream if I could get some extended version of Duncan Hills Coffee.)
