    This just in...

    The "Buy It Now" price of $1.5 million has been taken down. As of this post, the current bid is $580. Pitiful considering his other games and possessions! His game collection is probably worth way more than $1.5 million! Heck, the rare stuff, like the 6-player X-Men cabinet, is most likely worth hundreds of thousands of dollars!

    1.5 million dollars buying an island and a yacht? What islands are you looking at? Here in Seattle 1.5 million can barely buy you a new yacht... let alone a big house...

    @Kocrachon: It all depends on the location really. I read an article awhile ago advertising an island for sale here in Australia for 1.5 million

    Meanwhile, that same amount of money could buy you a small beachfront home in a "suburban" location.

    @Ants_Pai: This would make sense if I owned a PS3, but I am a 360 owner and have been for quite some time. I just hate how fanboys overlook the corrupt things MS has been doing over the past few years. I'm a huge fan of the 360, but I'm not frickin' blind.

    I don´t get pissed at all at these rumors. Michael wasn´t an ordinary celebrity. It´s not like Soulja Boy is trying to get into games or 50 Cent. Michael was involved, as all of us know, on a good amount of games from a time that this media hadn´t the same attention as it does nowadays. He was a real gamer and deserves to have his new game completed. I think it´s a good idea!

    space channel goodness aside, i adored Moonwalker on Genesis. even tossing "another side of me" in where thriller shoulda gone was ok, and i say this having not yet played the arcade version.



    i so hope this next venture is like that one.

    @KaneRobot: I believe "Another Part of Me" is used just because if you were to look at the arrangement for "Thriller," you'd see that simple baseline and sparse melody would make a poor fit when ported to the console's synthesizer. That said, the chorus of "Thriller" does appear in the game during some dancing attacks.

    @KaneRobot: i could be wrong here, but im pretty sure it mightve had to do with controversy? i know that sounds retarded, but bear in mind, while the charges against MJ wernet on as of the game's release (as i recall, anyway), the beginning of the full Thriller video brings MJ's disclaimer that he's not tied to the occult or any such madness just for making one of the greatest music videos of all time. you know, the 80s were fucking weird when you think about it.



    i dont recall if id read a solid connection there or not, but that's what id assumed. thinking about it, Kobun's answer there is just as plausible.
