Infogrames' Coporate Song

[Thunderfall]

You may be interested in this news reported by PC.IGN on the 8th. It's kinda funny!

<font color=brown>At this year’s E3 the company sent out a highly produced corporate "song" along with press releases and media assets that ties together the company’s efforts into one unifying mission statement, which is to simply…you guessed it, “rock your world” (and believe us, we have been more than entertained by this song here at IGN). Quite a hefty goal, no? Having grown tremendously in the last two years with acquisitions, new titles, and teams, Infogrames has become a global entertainment company, as such, the French publisher and developer has settled on seven, yes seven, major studios across the US, that’s not including its offices in France, either.

...And what exactly are we talking about when we bring up "the song?" Well, <a href="http://pcmedia.ign.com/media/news/sound/infogrames.mp3">download it here</a> (3.28 MB), and listen for yourself, to what may be the worst thing ever recorded since the invention of plants and dirt.

I received a complaint email from a visior saying the song is not appropriate for children:

<FONT COLOR="red">Some things just shouldn't be made public on the internet so as to protect
the public. That song was such a thing. For the love of god - think of the
children.</FONT c>

I agree the song is really bad, but I am clueless why it's bad for the children.

<FONT face="tahoma">Hmmm, I didn't notice anything bad for children in that song. Maybe I missed it, but I am for sure not listening to it again to find out.</FONT f>

PC.IGN is a pretty reputable gaming site. I hope they didn't lie.

What a stinking pile of monkey spunk. I'd rather pull a rotten tooth out of a dead horses penis with my teeth then listen to that heap of venomous refuse again.

I HAD to dig this one up again (do d/l and listen )

In a moment of weakness looking through my mp3s tonight I played it again...

...Infogrames has been hated for MUCH they have done with civ3's release and I wonder if ANYONE can put this song into correct context

May aswell also say that for great gaming music for free try:

I don't know wether to cry...or to sob uncontrolably...

This sounds like Janet Jackson singing a "Pink" song while stoned on PCP with Lyrics writen by the guy who came up with the "Nice to know ya' yoshinoya" compaign For Yoshinoya, if you havn't heard those commericals, trust me, you're better off

OMG roflmao! lol that's one of the most hilarious things I've heard in ages!

... civilization. Superman saves the nation. Nsync hotline, Dragonball, alone in the dark and that's not all. rolfmao!

 

[eyrei]

By the Gods! What is the ****ing connection between infogrames and gospel/R&B musicians? I hope someone got canned over that!

Got about half way through it. What were they thinking? Remember, the geniuses who approved this were the ones who decided Civ III was ready to ship.
