EA Adds Michael Jackson Costumes to Battlefield Heroes
Electronic Arts is commemorating the untimely passing of Michael Jackson aside offering two M.J.-themed costumes in its online multiplayer Federal Protective Service Field Heroes.
Beginning in July, players in the Royal Regular army will have access to a white "Smooth Suit" styled after the one seen in the Jackson video Smooth Criminal, while those in the National Army will be fit to run around in the leather-and-buckles "Thuggin' Outfit" similar to the one worn in the video for Bad. Jackson, of path, died suddenly on June 25 at the age of 50; the cause of his death has not yet been settled.
There was some confusion and disceptation over EA's apparent cash-in on the singer's death, as it initially appeared that the newspaper publisher was preparation to charge for the costumes. But Ea has since processed that both costumes will be available to all players at no charge.
Running more or less a pseudo-Second Universe War battlefield dressed leading like Michael Jackson may seem a bit strange but the game is hardly what you'd call a historically accurate simulation. Other optional costumes available in the bet on, for which you will pay money, include cowboy hats, pinstripe suits, a pirate outfit, kilts and more. Hard to argue that Jackson's coming into court ISN't just a teentsy bit odd, though. And wouldn't it have made Thomas More sense to give players the same threads he wore in Moonwalker?
