Aqua Teen Hunger Force game coming in Fall; Boston goes to DEFCON 1 photo

As we've told you before, your favorite crime fighting food items will be making their way to the PlayStation 2. But what we didn't tell you, was what the game's title would be or when it was coming out. Well, now we know, and since knowing is half the battle, allow us to tell you. This Fall will see the release of Midway's new Aqua Teen Hunger Force video game, titled: Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am.

Aside from having the greatest video game title ever, the Aqua Teen Hunger Force (ATHF) game looks like it will retain all the bizarre humor that makes the ATHF TV show so great (except in Boston). Peruse a brief description of the game to see what I mean:

"Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am is an epic, action-adventure combat golf, cart racing game that gives fans an opportunity to experience the Aqua Teen universe in a whole new way ... This game will set a new standard for crime-fighting, golf-obsessed, food battles."


Yeah, I think the ESRB is going to give this game a rating of WTF? But in all honesty, I couldn't care less about what the game play is like. Aqua Teen Hunger Force is one of the funniest shows on Adult Swim (second only to Sealab 2021) and if the game is nothing but a bunch of ATHF cartoons, I'll still be happy. Just as long as my main man Carl makes an appearance.

Caress the jump for the full description and press release. 

"MIDWAY AND CARTOON NETWORK ANNOUNCE
AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE ZOMBIE NINJA PRO-AM

Game Based on Hit Animated Comedy from Adult Swim Scheduled for Release on PlayStation®2 Computer Entertainment System this Fall

CHICAGO – March 21, 2007 – Midway Games Inc. (NYSE: MWY), a leading interactive entertainment industry publisher and developer, today announced that it will be developing an interactive title based on the hit comedy series from Adult Swim - Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am is scheduled to be available for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system this fall. The series, which follows the exploits of a trio of sentient fast-food items, has also inspired a feature length film - Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters due in theaters April 13.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am is an epic, action-adventure combat golf, cart racing game that gives fans an opportunity to experience the Aqua Teen universe in a whole new way. When Frylock is admitted to the prestigious Jersey Pines Golf Club, Master Shake decides to show the uppity members that he is also just as good (and uppity) and deserves a place in their exclusive club. Meatwad is, of course, persuaded to join in, and the three crime-fighting food products use golf clubs and a variety of other weapons in ways not intended as they battle numerous villains, fan favorites and other show characters.

"Aqua Teen Hunger Force is a unique and completely hilarious property," said Steve Allison, chief marketing officer, Midway. "We are working closely with Aqua Teen creators Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis to bring the tone of the TV show and movie into a video game."

"We are thrilled to be bringing the hilarious antics of Adult Swim's Aqua Teen Hunger Force to a one of kind gaming experience," said Christina Miller, VP of Consumer Products for Cartoon Network Enterprises, the network's global merchandising division. "This game will set a new standard for crime-fighting, golf-obsessed, food battles."

"This golden chalice represents a new age in gaming, the likes of which has never before been seen on this planet. The weak will tremble at the awesomeness of our full color, hand-made graphics!" said creators Maiellaro and Willis simultaneously and in unison.

'Aqua Teen Hunger Force' is an original comedy series that is part of Adult Swim, Cartoon Network's top-rated late-night sister service which presents programming six nights per week for a total of 45 hours. 'Aqua Teen Hunger Force' had its series premiere in September 2001, when Adult Swim launched. More than 60 episodes of the series have been completed to date. The Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters, also written and produced by Maiellaro and Willis, is scheduled to debut on over 800 screens on April 13, and will uncover the mysterious origins of Meatwad, Frylock and Master Shake."

I cannot speak of my hatred for ATHF enough, but that is irrelevant. For the first time, I have chuckled at a blog headline. Good work.

Oh, and Boston (the band) fucking rocks.

I hope this game is good. I was disappointed at the Family Guy game.

Boston is an amazing band. I think the quote stems more from Carl saying something like "I saw Boston live and they kicked ass" in one of the episode if I remember correctly, and not the advertisement fiasco that happened in Boston.

Brad Delp committed suicide not too long ago...

Fucking shame. His singing WAS Boston, just like Mercury WAS Queen.

I've been listening to Boston a lot lately.

Fucking shame man...

@Scape:

I think that quote from the show was about Loverboy. It was the one that featured the mighty Foreigner Belt.

It's nice to see that i'm not the only person on the planet that thinks Sealab is funnier than ATHF, though it definitely got shitcanned for a reason, as the creators basically ran out of ideas in season 4.

As soon as Captain Murphy died, the show died with it.
