Konami publishing Metalocalypse: Dethgame on PSN, XBLA

by Ben Gilbert on Jul 20th 2009 7:45PM

Confirming our suspicions of a forthcoming game based on Cartoon Network show Metalocalypse, Konami is this week announcing its intentions to publish Metalocalypse: Dethgame for Xbox Live and PlayStation Network. The show's creator, Brendon Small, confirmed to the Wall Street Journal that he's been working with Konami to produce the upcoming downloadable title from developer Frozen Codebase.

Rather than playing as Metalocalypse's lead characters, Small says you'll be controlling a "band of roadies" fighting in honor of the show's fictional band, Dethklok. Konami will allegedly be announcing the game later this week at the San Diego Comic Con.

I'd rather have a Home Movies game, even if it was just a reskinned Animaniacs for SNES.

Make that ESPECIALLY if it was just a reskinned Animaniacs for SNES.

Did you just compare Home Movies to Animaniacs?

With Brutal Legend on its way, I kinda figured this was inevitable.

But a good kind of inevitable ^_^

It better be Brutal!

YES! Maybe it'll be some kinda hybrid nascar theatrical type of event. SHIT YOUR PANTS!

i never liked this show, but the concept for the game sounds pretty decent.

I just hope this game doesn't turn out to be dildos.

It will be brutally dildos. Not in a good way though.

"Hey, i gots a reals cools codspieces toos!"
"Uhh, that's a dildo."
"Yeah, a strap-on dildo."

a squidbillies game could be pretty fun, now that i think of it...

A Venture Brothers game would also be quite nice.

"I ain't won Jack-a-lot at the squattery, because i ain't jackin' a squat-y. The Lottery should be renamed the Jack Squattery because that's all i ever done won in it!!!!!"

vs.

"Hello, i am Dr. Henry Killinger, and zis is my Magic Murder Bag"

Brutal...

DO YOU FOLKS LIKE COFFEE?!?!?!?!??!?!

Real coffee from the hills of Columbia?!

the duncan hills awakes you

Playing as a 'band of roadies' sounds pretty lame to me.

The Metalocalypse game will "face fist" brutal legend!

And after that most brutalest of brutal beatings, it'll get "Bloodtrocuted"

SWEET! I love this cartoon. My only issue is how CN breaks up the seasons and drives the repeats into the ground.

However a Home movies game would rock too. That shown doesn't get enough justice. One of my favorite episodes is when Brendon and the coach are in court and they have a mini reflection on how TRON is a great movie lol.

How about Metalocalypse songs on Rock Band? Pretty please!

This.

YES!

BRUTAL

I know! I been sayin' that since rhythm DLC became a thing! On Guitar Hero 2 (way back in the good, Harmonix developed days), I never turned the game off without playing "Thunderhorse". Well, that and "Push, Push, Lady Lightning" by Bang Camaro.

Brendon, release Rock Band tracks please. We promise we'll ALL buy them.

I hereby declare this an opportunity to go berserk with epic Metalocalypse quotes. Have at it.

"I woke up this morning with a clown's hand, in my pants. That's what i did today"
"I am going to govern the fuck out of this state! Now show me your guns!"
"We want a PR Person."
"I am a PR Person."
"No we want a *real* PR Person."
"I am a real PR Person."
"We want a woman."

I do cocaine.

I do c-c-c-c-coooocaaaaaaiiine! Yeeeee-aaaaah!!

This better be blacker than the blackest black (times infinity).
I also hope they make this game in the Marianas Trench. That would be brütal!!!

Awesome!!! Time to kick some ass in the name of William Murderface!!!

As long as it's zazzy, I'm down.

Did somebody say.. zazz?

Will you guys PLEASE... stop saying zazz.

I have never bought any DLC so far... but this, I think, will push me over the edge. That's brutal.

yes yes yes i love there music!

Cash cow.

I JUST SHIT, PISSED AND SPEWED ALL DOWN MY SELF IN EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
