DarkStar Video Game To Feature Over 20 Classic RUSH Songs
Rushisaband.com is reporting:
DarkStar is a first-person role-playing video game that's been in development for over seven years. It's usually described as more of an interactive movie than a video game because the characters in the game are live actors. The game is of interest to Rush fans because it will feature the music of Rush; over 20 songs spanning 12 albums. Back in July of 2004 they released a
teaser trailer online that featured 'One Little Victory'. It's also interesting to note that a number of people who worked on the Mystery Science Theater 3000 TV show - which included many Rush references - are involved with this project. Here's what the website says about using the music of Rush along with the complete song list:
"For over 30 years, these Canadian Rock Legends have continued to produce cutting-edge progressive music, and have toured nearly non-stop, culminating in a spectacular live in Rio concert and an incredible DVD of that concert. There are at least 20 songs from the RUSH repertoire in Darkstar, spanning music from their earliest albums from the '0's to some of their newest on Vapor Trails. Talks are ongoing with Anthem Records, Inc. in Toronto about cross marketing opportunities, including possibly utilizing some of Darkstar's scenes in the band's live visual presentation in concert."
