What do they do? Linkin Park to Microsoft;
Microsoft launched its beta Project Spark last December, allowing players and developers create and play custom games on consoles Xbox.
To promote their new album The Hunting Party, The Linkin Park teamed up with Microsoft to create an interactive music video that the users they will be able to take part, shuffling the scenes to rebuild it from scratch.
The band collaborated with developers Team Dakota to create a seven-hour interactive video for new single Guilty All the Same, which they say can be played in three acts. The visual effects are suitably dark and gloomy, and the overall gameplay seems to show someone trying to escape a typical hellscape destroyed by some unholy entity. Of course, the mix of sound and visual effects probably fits well enough. While it's not entirely clear what might be changed and in what ways, Microsoft and the band promise that players can take scenes from the video and remix the song and the gameplay, as they want.
Αν και η παρουσίαση δεν είναι η πιο συναρπαστική που έγινε ποτέ, είναι αρκετά εφευρετική και φαίνεται να κάνει καλή χρήση της νέας πλατφόρμας Project Spark. Οι Linkin Park θα προσφέρουν το μουσικό βίντεο στους Gamers free for xbox and the Windows 8.1, and “The Hunting Party” will be released on June 14th.
