Record Label™ Video Game...

Read Full Story >

Yeah, April Fool’s was last week, but this is pretty great:

“Let’s be honest, it’s as close to the real thing as anyone without family on the inside is ever likely to get,” confides Kevin Kelleher, Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Sony BMG. “But things on our side of the fence aren’t always pretty. So whether you’re paying off DJs under the table for additional radio play, faking your own artists’ album reviews, or simply determining what private information you want the spyware on their CDs to collect for you… we guarantee that you’ll be able to experience all the pleasure, satisfaction and unaccountability of being a real-life Sony BMG executive.”

You could buy SonyBMG for $349 if you wait until January.

This is a fake, if this was real you'd end up losing thousands of dollars not just $349.

#4 a non-imus says:

Absolutely brilliant. Clearly a social commentary on Sony's "untouchable" status and general unaccountability. And this parody links to genuine articles about actual crimes Sony commits year after year. This is how parody should be done. They even started pasting actual reactions to the article from around the web at the end of it. Classic.

Does it come with a clip-on ponytail and harmless snorting powder for extra-realism ?

#7 torrents says:

this game would require a very good return policy, because after all, it would take very long for it to finish!
