Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson had a lot going on before his sudden death. An upcoming tour. A new album. And even a video game. That’s right, the King of Pop has a game in the works that is schedule for a winter 2009 release. However, it appears that the game might be placed on the back burner after yesterday’s news.

The game is planned for a release on the Playstation 2, Playstation 3, and Nintendo Wii. However, Jackson, being an avid gamer himself, often wanted to give input into his video game endeavors. This was the case for Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker on the Sega Genesis (and also in the arcades – though the arcade game differed greatly from the Genesis title).

The new Michael Jackson title is being produced by MJJ Productions, a company owned and run by Jackson.
