Reuters has the scoop on the new “Jackass” video game. The popular MTV series that has spawned two movies is now moving into new territory with their first video game. Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Steve-O and the crew have all signed on to lend their likeness and voices to the project.
“We’re excited as all hell about it,” Knoxville said. “It is kind of odd that people will take on our personas and depressing that they’re going to have to do that. We’ve never really worked on anything like this before. This is our first video game. We just hope that our video game is as crappy as our movies.”
Players will create their own “Jackass”episodes by combining stunts. Most of these aren’t from the tv show and are extreme.
Henry Price, senior director sales and marketing at Red Mile says, “We have the luxury of throwing characters off a 50-story building into a pile of elephant dung without worrying about our insurance rates.”
The game is scheduled to hit the shelves September 24 for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable and Nintendo DS platforms.
