Linkin Park launched an iPhone game earlier this year, and now they're officially moving on to become a part of one of 2010's biggest EA releases. The band will provide the music for a new "Medal of Honor" trailer directed by their DJ Joe Hahn on August 1. The sounds will come from their new album A Thousand Suns' first single "The Catalyst," which will also play as part of the game's soundtrack. And EA says they've only just begun.
"'Medal of Honor' marks the beginning of an innovative new relationship between EA and Linkin Park," EA worldwide executive of music and marketing Steve Schnur said in a press release. "I've personally known the band since 1999, and they have always been an intensely creative group who understand the power of videogames and have wanted to explore and expand the medium’s possibilities. 'The Catalyst' is one of the most anticipated tracks of the year, and the combination of this new song and Joe Hahn's distinctive visual dynamic re-sets the bar in our commitment to bringing together landmark EA games with artists whose talents go far beyond music." Exactly what kind of EA-related plans Linkin Park may have post-"Medal of Honor" weren't specified, but they agree that they'd like to work on other such projects in the future. "I definitely think we could do things with them down the road," bassist David "Phoenix" Farrell told USA Today. "It was a good and fun partnership on our end. I know our fans are gamers and it is a cool way to get your music heard." Do you think Linkin Park will be a good fit for the "MoH" soundtrack? What else would you like to see them do with EA? Anything? Nothing? Source here./ -------------------- |

I think it is quite interesting and I think it is awesome that they are working with EA. Its a great way to reach more people. And it makes us fans happy. --------------------  |

I don't know how to think about this...
I mean it's clear that this is a money related partnership that mainly warner and EA is responsible for. Generally I wouldn't be concerned about such relationships, but isn't it a bit ambivalent that they support a game in which American Warfare is being celebrated and on the other hand release critical songs with political meaning concerning the grievance of the war related-moral? (eg. Hands Held High, or presumably Jornada del Muerto) -------------------- ...The Little Things Give You Away...

Too bad they didn't start the partnership a few months ago. I would of loved if there was some LP in Skate 3. Skate 3 definitely has a great soundtrack already, but it would of been sick if there was a LP song or songs! Kick-ass game.

I have a feeling we may get Linkin Park Rock Band because of this partnership.

-------------------- By the time you finish reading this signature you will realize that it really makes no sense but yet you continue reading. Why? Stop reading.. Really.. Ok, this makes me uncomfortable.. Are you stalking me? Stop it, you pervert.. OH COME ON! I SAID STOP IT! You didn't stop, did you? Οk, you've made it far enough.. Only to find out, as I already said that there's nothing interesting.. Now continue reading other posts and other people's signatures.. Weirdo..

I guess is a good partnership... hopefully this will bring us new songs from times to times in the future xP something like what happened with New Divide. |

Maybe LP and EA are related in the Media stuff, maybe EA can provide some good stuff to LP in the Live Shows... LP want to have the best live Show in the World so EA could help....
Maybe the deal is, LP gives music, EA gives Media... -------------------- My Twitter My Facebook Youtube

Would be cool to get LP in the next Need For Speed soundtrack, Hot Pursuit!
I always loved NFS soundtracks.

Hopefully there will be some good selection of keyboards in ATS so they can make it to Rockband 3 for DLC...

I like it, and I was supposed to buy the game before I knew about this too, so it's definietly a good idea.
But I don't like EA games these days, they're only doing this because of one thing...And we know the answer deep inside of us

QUOTE (jakolp @ Jul 29 2010, 12:08 PM) That would suck I was actually thinking about this the other day. And it might actually work. Most of the vocal and keyboard parts would actually be pretty hard. It could be a good way to show off the keyboard mechanique. |
