Buy Game On - NOW!
As I blogged yesterday, after the online, FREE release of "Game On" on MSN/Zune network last week, today saw the official release of "Game On"via iTunes, Amazon and other outlets via Tunecore.com. It wasn't long before it was rising in the charts. Since iTunes is regional, I could only check on how it fared in Canada, but @TheGuild, @FeliciaDay and a cadre of Guildies was monitoring it around the world.
...I was watching as Game On hit number 4, then number 3 and finally rested at number 2:
The Guild had beaten Shakira, Eminem and Master Bieber - only Katy Perry withstood the assault. It was the same in the US.
What an amazing result!
Going head to head with massive, established stars and winning is a huge triumph for an independent webseries. Think about it for a moment. All the advertising and constant rotation these songs and stars get were no match for the power of The Guild. Awesome!

Behind the Scenes
If you want to know more about the shooting of Game On, I reviewed it on PinkRaygun last week - and here's a video from our good friend Greg Benson from the set!
MORE Guild Goodness!
Something else happened today, too - Season 4, Episode 3 was released! My review on PinkRaygun will be up tomorrow, and you can see the epsiode here:

Catapault?? Anyway, great Royle Family (Royle Familay?) reference.
ReplyDeleteWell you have really put the cat among the pigeons with that. I have always spelled catapault that way but now I'm not sure.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I can't locate my dictionary and online spellings vary (and anyway you can't believe anything that's on the internet. Everyone knows that). And don't get me started on spellcheck and its hatred of proper English spellings.
You are obviously a discerning person since you picked up on the Royale Familay reference, so maybe you could check in your Big Book of Words and confirm.
