Michael Jackson has a planned video game bring released for the PS2, PS3, and Nintendo Wii this holiday season. No word yet as to whether or not the performer's death will cause a delay or cancellation of the game.

1.15 - I'm in my late 20's

and believe me when I tell you that when I was kid Michael Jackson was larger than life. He wasn't just a performer; he was the biggest star in the world. I saw him perform at Madison Square Garden when I was six years old and that concert was perhaps the best I've ever been too. Despite the controversy that surrounded his life in his later years, I can say that his music, his shows, and his performances brought my family together on many a night. And getting his Michael Jackson's Moonwalker for Sega Genesis was maybe the best Christmas ever.

Rest in peace Michael.

I remember seeing Michael Jackson in concert in 1984 at the Orange Bowl in Miami... What a bummer! The guy has had nothing but controversy in his life for the past decade. An abrupt end to a sad life...

And poor Farrah Fawcett... overshadowed by MJ in the news only hours after her death... at least Ed McMahon got a few days in the headlines.

There was a Charlies Angels video game as well but you don't see news about Farrah Fawcett. This is NOT gaming news no matter how you want to spin it and this site is a joke when it comes to reporting stories that shouldn't be approved. You are just whoring this out for hits to your NEWS site and you are just a footnote as the "gaming guys".

6.3 - oh please

I think we can all say that Jackson's relationship w/ kids was highly questionable. Then the guy moves to Bahrain, which is like the child molestation capitol of the world. He might as well have moved to Thialand!

And who dies of a heart attack at 50? Something tells me cocaine might have played a role in this. Why else would his nose had been rumored to fall off on an airplane. And all those surgical masks he goes around wearing?

I'm not saying he didn't have an incredible musical legacy, but I do find Michael Jackson as a person to be quite deplorable.

Michael Jackson was one of the first true global cultural icons, transcending normal human barriers of race and creed to touch and enrich the lives of billions with his unique and inspirational abilities in song and dance.

Michael was one of the few truly kind souls out there, who would never hurt anyone and who had done a lot to further the causes of those less fortunate. It is a shame that elements in the media could not stand this and spent decades trying to bring him down with endless smear campaigns.

But he has beaten them, Michael has now become immortal and will be remembered for what he did best, Rest In Peace.
