NPH & Felicia Day rock the dead

By Rach | Published Wed Feb-10-10 -

IGN has a first look at Rock of the Dead, a new Wii game from Epicenter, and it features voice work from Neil, with Felicia Day as his love interest for the game. According to their report, the game is similar to Typing of the Dead, in which zombies are killed using a QWERTY keyboard, but instead you use a Guitar controller (Guitar Hero/Rock Band controller compatible) to strum the bad guys to death.

The game doesn’t feature licensed music in the same vein as Rock Band or Guitar Hero, but it’s definitely music-focused. The team commissioned bands to create “rock” versions of classical music (Public domain, anyone?) and they sound pretty good as a backdrop to the action. According to Epicenter, the team has licensed Rob Zombie/White Zombie tracks for appropriate parts of the action. And I can’t forget to mention that the team commissioned the assistance of Neil Patrick Harris himself for the character lead in Rock of the Dead, who provides the cheesy outer-monologue and one-liners. Felicia Day’s the love interest here (Neil’s partner in crime in Dr. Horrible’s Sing-a-Long), and the game’s script was handled by the writer of The Witcher.

VGA video clips/interviews

By Rach | Published Tue Dec-16-08 -

Thanks once again to the people at church_of_nph, we have some video clips to link you to! Firstly there’s a couple of short red carpet interview clips – in this one he talks about wishing he had more time to play video games (“I have a Wii, I bought the Wii Fitness on ebay, I won it – still in the box”) and in this one he’s asked about what kinds of games he likes (“I like the Wii, because I can act like I’m throwing a dart and it happens”). Also, Spike TV themselves have uploaded some highlights of the show, including Neil’s “bit” when he presents his award. Sadly it doesn’t include the actual presenting of the award but we’ll let you know if we find it!

Finally, if you saw last night’s HIMYM, check out Barney’s blog this week to read his Christmas list and letter to Santa.

In Eat Lead, Will Arnett will bring to life classic 80’s videogame action hero Matt Hazard.

In the world of Eat Lead, however, everything stops being a game and becomes reality when players discover through the original storyline brought to life by Arnett’s and Harris’ voiceover that someone is using the new game to bring about Matt’s death once and for all.

Words of Wisdom

“Dear Resident, The time we spent together, however long it was, meant the world to me. I would love to see you again but unfortunately I cannot. You see, I am a ghost. I can only materialize once every decade, on the anniversary of my death. I chose to spend my one day among the living with you, sweet resident. Perhaps we will meet again, in another decade--provided you keep your figure. Until then, all my love from the beyond, Barney.”
- Barney Stinson
