Sad, just sad. For someone that had so many troubles in his life, and now that he has passed, he gets recognition as an artist again selling millions in albums and "This is it" movie and the only one's who benifit is his "estate" AKA greedy family. Anyone see the MJ bobble-head? Ridiculous. I just hope that these earnings are going to ONLY his children or to pay his outstanding debts and nobody else.
 
It's unreasonable to expect that consumers of the age that enjoy gaming would understand that media was, and continues to be, complicit in creating a caricature of Michael Jackson that is untrue at its core. These news consumers take everything at face value as if true. They take neither the time nor effort to fully investigate the facts; instead, they rely on tabloid and medialoid (mainstream media infected by tabloid journalism) to create their reality. Sad, really, but this is the "evolution" of journalism today. BTW, Jackson's estate has no outstanding debt and has been solvent for quite some time.
 
If nothing else, these comments have taught me how ignorant and
callous 'gamers' are. In case you idiots haven't noticed, the game
will celebrate peace, human connection, encourage donation to
charity and offer music and dance. All themes in Mr. Jackson's life. Your ignorance comes
from blabbering what media has fed you for years, without an independant
thought or clue what this man was about. From the dimwitted comments seen
here, children, of any age, are much safer on Planet Michael than anywhere
near the dredge I read here.
 
Are there still people out there who do not know THE TRUTH? Educate yourselves. The TRUTH is available for those who want to know THE TRUTH. Unfortunately, there are many more who would rather join in the evil of spreading lies and untruths because they buy into what the media tells them. When the jury was asked about the verdicts, they replied "the public didn't see what we saw and didn't hear what we heard." They're right! We DIDN'T! But we should have! The media are lying manipulators whose only interest is ratings, not TRUTH! DA Tom Sneddon was caught red-handed in the courtroom planting evidence that didn't exist. Janet Arvizo (the boy's mother) is the one who went to jail after the trial. Jordan Chandler fled the country to avoid testifying rather than finally taking the perfect opportunity "under oath" to put away his abuser. Read the TRIAL transcripts, that is where you will find the truth. Educate yourselves and please stop spreading these lies about our greatest American Treasure that was stolen from us by the media.

Michael Jackson did more for people of all ages across this globe than anyone else will ever do in a hundred lifetimes. Michael had a genuine love and concern for people of all ages, all races, and he dedicated his life to trying to make the world a better place. He spent countless hours honing his skills, perfecting his moves, mastering his God given talents just to bring us joy. I'm so ashamed of the way he was treated in return. May God forgive the media for what they did to this man. Taking the one thing that Michael dedicated his life to and using it against him in the most sinister context was a crime. The media capitalizing on it was yet another crime. 40% of audience/viewers believing it was shameful. Those who continue to spread the lies are beyond comprehension and logic. The "accuser" and his entire family all admitted under oath that they had LIED UNDER OATH in a previous lawsuit alleging sexual abuse by JC Penny guards; a case in which they swindled $150,000 out of JC Penny. Again, read the trial transcripts and learn the TRUTH based on the FACTS that came to light UNDER OATH. Make that change for the sake of the Man In the Mirror and other lives that you might have influence over.

We as parents and grandparents will continue to support ALL THINGS MICHAEL! We've had MORE THAN ENOUGH OF THE MEDIA LIES and UNTRUTHFUL BIASED REPORTING!
 
Having grown up with his music I recognize what he wanted to do, what he wanted to effect in this world. To transcend race and color, promote peace, and goodwill.

His personal issues are not what the game is about. I do hope it goes on to do something nice and beautiful, Maybe something positive could come out of it.
 
Whoever thought this was a good idea should be lined up and forced to play Hello Kitty Adventure for a week,then shot.
 
""We as parents and grandparents will continue to support ALL THINGS MICHAEL! We've had MORE THAN ENOUGH OF THE MEDIA LIES and UNTRUTHFUL BIASED REPORTING!""

I honestly believe that if he were alive today, you would be one of the unfortunate people that would let your kids stay at his house. Sadly you wouldn't be the one going through the emotional anguish, it would be your kid.

Every City/Town has that pervert that most parents with common sense can tell that something is wrong with them. So they don't let their kids go anywhere near that house. Micheal Jackson fit the bill in every way as a pedophile. Leaving that aside though I personally would not have let my kids go anywhere near his house just from the fact of how freaking crazy the man was. Even given the small percentage chance that he wasn't a pedophile the man was 100% crazy, and no kid should be let around someone that's crazy.
 
@ Be0wulf22

I've known Mr. Jackson for 14 years. You only know what the media fed you and it was all lies. If you ever took the time to read the court transcripts then even you would know the truth about Mr. Jackson. Do you know who Janet Arvizo is? Do know you know the truth about her? Do you know she is a welfare fraud and falsely accused JC penny of sexual molestation and then admitted to making it up? Do you know the facts about Gavin and what he told DHS? Do you know the truth about the Chandlers? Do you know the story behind the screenplay of Robin Hood Men In Tights? Do you know Mr. Jackson? Have you ever had a conversation with him? Have you ever spent a week with him getting to know him? Your ignorance of the truth and facts is obvious. Take a good look at the person in the mirror before you engage in spreading lies and rumors when you are clueless on the subject.

Clearly you did not read very carefully what I wrote or my previous comment post earlier today. I was defending him, just as you are apparently attempting to. The person who replied to my original post was the one buying into the media lies. I think you may have misunderstood that I quoted i7Rocks in my reply...those were not my words, but his. Please try to read and comprehend before flying off the handle.
 
@ Be0wulf22 Please accept my apology. My post was actually intended for RGPPLAYER.
 
Unfortunately, Michael Jackson is now known at least as much for his, uh, relationships with young boys as he is for his music. That's the bottom line (pardon the expression).

But hey, some middle-aged guy next door to me is inviting prepubescent boys over to his house for sleep-overs. Sometimes the boys will actually sleep in the man's bed. I was going to call social services but I decided after reading the posts here that everything's OK. Thanks for setting my head straight.
 
Some of these comments are so rude and IGNORANT. Michael was never accused of rape it was molesation and he was found not guilty because there was NO evidence of him being a criminal. The game if for 13 and up as most games are but that won't stop computer savvy kids from joining. The jokes are getting old and they're stupid because they're inaccurate.

You just can't make it stop, can you?
 
Michael Jackson did more for, yes 'for,' childrens' welfare than anyone on this post ever will. I don't blame those of you who don't realize that for not realizing that - you weren't told the truth in 1993 or 2005.

All around us, are clear examples of how media is manipulated -Breitbart, Beck, Palin - and on the left too. You all know Nancy Grace and others like her ran with the pathetic case Sneddon brought on behalf of a fmaily of grifters and everyone got sucked into believing it.

Meanwhile, a man driven to taking sleep-inducing substances is dead and his name is mauled daily in the mouths of strangers - unjustifiably.

Do the research: find out what Jackson contributed, achieved and endured
in his lifetime. Because to judge him by the last few years of his life is to judge him on a very limited snapshot of his life.

Oh, and for the record, whoever wrote 'he had a dungeon' - you know not of what you speak - and you know it.
