Metallica Videogame Planned

Thanks to an anonymous reader pointing to this Reuters/Yahoo story with more details on the newly announced Metallica-licensed videogame. Apparently, the 2005-due title, which other sources mention is a vehicular combat game, "has the ideas and the inspiration and the identity of the band behind it", and will, oddly, also feature art input from Geof Darrow of The Matrix/Hard Boiled/Big Guy And Rusty fame. Let's hope the title can improve on band-licensed games from Aerosmith , Journey, or even Iron Maiden?

We've always wanted our fans to experience our music online .. But up until now, the existing distribution methods have not passed the kind of 'quality' standards our fans have come to expect from us.
Really, Lars? I don't see your sorry ass has-been band on the iTunes Music Store. Perhaps it's because you know that there's no one who knows a bit from a byte that'd give you a thin dime. BTW, St. Anger sucks ass. I heard it from someone who got it from Kazaa.
