Hot off the video game news wire….

Beloved rock act REO Speedwagon is getting a video game.

What the fuck?

No, really what the fuck?

Why on EARTH are they getting a game?  Like, unless it’s an artist specific Guitar Hero/Rock Band or a title based on say, a bands concept album, why should any band have a video game? Don’t we remember the last time a band was arbitrarily given a game?

And more importantly, why one who hasn’t had a hit album in TWENTY FIVE YEARS?!

Who is the audience for this title?

If you are the audience for this title, and are somehow on this site, I guess you want to know the details.

The game, titled Find Your Own Way Home is a point-and-click adventure title, set for the PC and MAC, and will feature 12 of the bands songs. No projected release dates, or screenshots (minus the awesomely terrible one above) were available as of yet.

Seriously…why?
