Call of Duty Black Ops has Eminem and so in an effort not to be completely outdone Medal of Honor has signed up Linkin Park to be the voice of their title.
Personally I think Eminem is far and away the better musician but I guess that really comes down to personal taste and I would never go as far as to say Linkin Park is bad… or that I know much about music.
You can check out their new single, The Catalyst, in the video below which doubles perfectly as a trailer for the upcoming Medal of Honor.
I may find Eminem to be a better musician but I am possible more excited about the new Medal of Honor compared to the new Call Of Duty… I just found the pacing to be more to my liking or it could be that I have had hands on time with MoH and only hands off time with Black Ops.

Freakin amazing trailer, big linkin park fan…but heard the song yesterday for the first time and i’m really disappointed in it…its not as hard and poignant as their previous stuff.
but besides the mediocre song, its still a blerrie good trailer.looking forward to sporting a beard and killing terrorists.

To be honest, Linkin Park was never really “hard” mate, I never got into them because they always reminded me of a pop boy band with guitars.
Having said that, this is a pretty cool trailer though.

Got to agree with you there Christo the song isn’t quiet as gritty and hard as their usual stuff. not sure what you were listening to Bobby but it def. wasn’t linkin park 😉

haha, Mr Kotick, don’t you have some lay-offs to attend to!
well if your a fan or not, you have to admit that its not their most edgy song.

Let me see… what did I listen…. Korn, SOAD, Slipnot, Children of Bodom, Soulfly, Sinergy, Amon Amarth (before they hit it big), Dimmu Borgir etc. etc.
I’d even state that GWAR and Lordi (regardless of being hilariously cool bands) are infinitely harder than Linkin Park. 😛

Lol! Yeah, but I guess you mellow out as you get older so maybe they’re going the Metallica route? :getlost:

And I’m just messing with you guys, LP may not be my cup of tea, but if you enjoy it, it really doesn’t matter if Old Bobby Kotick hates it. 😛
PS: Dimmu Borgir… sniff.. brings tears to my eyes. Best band ever!
