Linkin Park is one of the most popular bands on the planet since they sing songs that angsty teens can identify with. Whether you are a minority, an AZN, a gamer, or a bro who drinks Mountain Dew alone in his room that is dimly lit with the glow of a computer screen, Linkin Park has become the ultimate prophet / psychologist / bro of a band.

It seems like Linkin Park made an iPhone app to 'appeal to their fan base.' It seems to be some sort of 'vintage' 8 bit video game played on an iPhone. iPhone is apparently the new Gameboy for tweens. Bands are always encouraged by 'social media experts' to do something new and exciting that gets ur fan base 'excited.' I think their fans like to play video games, but probably ones where you kill other humans, or maybe ones where you travel to other planets to kill aliens.

According to the trailer, the 8-bit thing comes into play musically, because the game "features original and 8-bit versions of some of their greatest hits." It also references the band's gaming roots, which include a lot of standards, according to Shinoda.

"My bandmates and I grew up playing games like 'Metroid,' 'Donkey Kong,' 'Zelda,' 'Space Invaders,' 'Mega Man' and 'Rygar,'" he said. "We wanted this game to have the feel of a vintage game, and a big part of it was the music."
