I'm doing it now.

 

The New 8-BIT-Rebellion trailer has been posted at LP's Facebook. The new song is called Blackbirds!

 

A preview of the song Blackbirds is near the end of the video.

Thanks! I've known about this site for a while, I just never signed up for the forums.

 

Thanks for signing up dude! Stick around and post, this is a pretty neat forum.

 

Hi Everyone,

My bandmates and I are thrilled to announce our game, “Linkin Park 8 Bit Rebellion,” will finally be out late this month for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. In the game, you’ll battle enemies and solve mysteries in order to stop an evil corporation’s mass-brainwashing campaign. Here’s some other stuff you’ll find:

- an 8 Bit version of each member of Linkin Park
- new 8 Bit versions of some of our most popular songs
- characters and art designed by the band
- a brand new Linkin Park song, entitled “Blackbirds,” waiting for you at the end.

Besides being being the first game to contain a new, exclusive LP track, this game is a “first” in other ways: it’s the first massively multiplayer music artist app, our first game, and will be in the first wave of games designed for the iPad.

Look out for it later in the month, and feel free to tell some friends.

Thanks,
-Mike

"will finally be out late this month"

I think he meant next month.

Wow I haven't heard anything about this! Mike recently produced and featured on a song from Cypress Hill's new album Rise Up, which comes out on April 20th!

This sounds sooo dope!

 

I believe that's just because he did it a while ago (if it's the same song).

^ That was posted quite a while back. And I think this is the first time a sample of the actual song was put out.

 

Awesome sample! Can't wait to hear the final product.

 

I thought I'd add this here. This was the live chat Mike and Chester had today. Not too much news except some more 8 bit teaser stuff. It's good to see them interact and be personable with us though. I would expect more chats in the future since that is Mike's Ustream account page.

Mike actually went on an LPU chat to tell everyone about the uStream that was about to happen.

Click HERE will take you to 4Shared to download the chat log from LPU.

Alternatively you can read everything that was said,

- He describes Blackbirds in one word: icecreamsandwich
- Mike asks if Blackbirds was leaked yet, everyone said no.
- He said that even if the song did leak he hopes you'd check out the game anyway.
- Mike says the game is pretty cool.
- He got an email from Apple promoting the iPad.
- He is waiting the 3G (and WiFi) version of the iPad to come out.
- Artificial Life, Inc are supposed to bring the band an iPad with the game on it.
- Mike has only played the iPhone version of the game.
- Under the words MikeShinoda.com on his blog, in Japanese it says "I don't know how to speak Japanese" etc.
- His brother translated that for him.
- He is in the studio.
- He tells everyone to go on their uStream accounts.
- He says they should try and crash it.
- He said he will post the lyrics to Blackbirds once the game and song is released.
- He says "BRB" and claims that he is going off to record Chester's vocals.
