And then there was cake: "Still Alive" is coming as DLC for Rock Band. See Coulton and Belmont rock out in the Joystiq video (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/02/24/video-jonathan-coulton-performing-still-alive-rock-band-dlc/).

"Maybe Black Mesa...that was a joke HA HA fat chance" makes it be Trogdor by lots

I clicked on the "share" link in the video and my system friggin powered off!

No do not pass go, no do not collect $200, or nothing, powered down!

My system is not OC and has been stable for months, so linky is bad?!?!

Portal song was very entertaining but I don't see how it will translate to a guitar piece without becoming totally unrecognisable.

What are you talking about? Those arpeggios in the background are all acoustic guitar. It's a direct translation.

That is part of the problem I think, it's boring.

The Trogdor however, comes in the NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGHHHHHHHHHHTTTTTTT. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mO4mjCeHUx8)

Well, we could wait to reserve judgment until after we've played it.

Hey! There's a thought.


Also, Still Alive is about 3 billion x infinity times better than Trogdor, and it hurts me a little to say that.

It was a very entertaining song but looking at what they were playing in that video jesus, whats fun about that?

I don't think it works.
