Attention Video Game Enthusiasts!
Nu Revolution Entertainment is continually searching for ways to give new exposure to our founder and franchise artist Wordsmith. As part of our global marketing plan this dedicated push began back in 2008 with a promotional contract signed with Joint One Radio of Japan. This partnership made Joint One the greatest promoter of Wordsmith in the Far East and was not long in bringing opportunities for exposure in many markets, the newest of which being the realm of Video Games.

Often considered the medium of the future, video gaming is an industry on the cutting edge of technology much like the cinema of the mid twentieth century. Artists and musicians now view the gaming industry as a suitable platform to showcase their craft, and thanks to Joint One, independent grind sensation Wordsmith has joined the party on one of the most hotly anticipated games of 2009, MadWorld.

Developed by PlatinumGames and published by Sega, MadWorld is eagerly awaited as the new hope for mature gaming on the Nintendo Wii console. This stylized video game pushes cartoon violence to the extreme, however developers intend the game to be seen in a comical light what with the over-the-top absurdities of the game-play. The player controls Jack, a mechanic with a chainsaw on his arm, as he competes in a royal rumble style game show called Death Watch. Players can look forward to fun, creative and violent ways to dispatch hordes of evil contenders as you work towards the 100 million dollar grand prize.

MadWorld makes great stylistic leaps both with striking visuals and a diverse audio soundtrack. The color scheme involves only three colors, a stark black and white canvas made bright red with the blood spillage of your enemies. In fitting with the style and vision the game was given an upbeat Rap soundtrack to entertain and engage the player throughout the contest. Nu Revolution artist Wordsmith is an unsigned artist fortunate enough to be involved with the project.

Wordsmith wrote the song “Death & Honor” to be used as music for one of many boss battles throughout the game. Word had this to say about the opportunity: “It was an honor to score some music for the Nintendo Wii's first true action game MadWorld as I was a video game junkie growing up. Due to my music, I only find myself playing video games with my kids, but I look at this like I'm coming full circle. I have to give a big thanks to my Japan Marketing Reps Joint One LLC.. I just signed a two year extension with them… so I look forward to more projects like this and a lasting imprint in the Japan Market.”

MadWorld was released on March 10^th in the US and April 10^th Overseas for Nintendo Wii consoles.
