Play Grand Theft Auto IV With Senses Fail on Xbox LIVE

The band Senses Fail is back for more! They had so much fun in their last Game with Fame in May that they've returned to take on Xbox LIVE members. Alternative rock band Senses Fail will be online October 4, 2008, to play Grand Theft Auto IV™ Xbox LIVE® members. And they'll be releasing five FREE music videos on Xbox LIVE Marketplace to celebrate.

If you're an Xbox LIVE Gold member, and you want a chance to play with members of Senses Fail, send a friend request to the following Gamertags and be online half an hour before (7:30 P.M. ET) the Game with Fame session starts on Saturday, October 4, 8:00 P.M. ET.

Senses Fail consists of James "Buddy" Nielsen (vocals), Garrett Zablocki (guitar), Heath Saraceno (guitar), Dan Trapp (drums), and Jason Black (bass). Their third full-length release, Life Is Not A Waiting Room, releases in early October, and you'll be able to play band members just as the record hits store shelves.

In conjunction with the Game with Fame, Senses Fail will be releasing five FREE music videos on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. The songs include "Buried A Lie," and "Rum Is For Drinking, Not For Burning" off their Let It Enfold You album, and "Can't Be Saved," "Calling All Cars," and "The Priest And The Matador" off their Still Searching album.

Their new release, Life Is Not A Waiting Room, combines the usual brilliant guitar work with a searing emotional undertone exemplified by the album's title. "I felt I had been living as if I was waiting for something to happen, but I know that is the wrong way to live—it just doesn't promote any sort of happiness," Nielsen says. "The title sums up the direction I want to go in, and what I want to get away from, and it's a cry to everyone else to stop living like I have."

Play Madden NFL 09 With Hollywood Undead on Xbox LIVE

Hollywood Undead are about to drop a musical bomb. On their debut album, they've concocted an explosive cocktail of hip-hop, rock and metal, forging an alternative style that's primed to blow the scene up.

The band performs in individual masks in order to maintain an air of mystery. This originated from their MySpace page, which they filled with pictures of themselves in hockey masks. They made their live debut in August 2008 at the Virgin Mobile Festival after winning 285,000 votes, over half the total, in a Book the Band contest against four other bands.

Their popular song "Undead" is featured on the new Madden soundtrack, and now you have a chance to play with the band in Madden NFL 09 in this Game with Fame event.

If you're an Xbox LIVE Gold member, and you want a chance to play with members of Hollywood Undead, send a friend request to the gamertag HollywoodGWF and be online half an hour before (6:30 P.M. ET) the Game with Fame session starts on Sunday, October 5, at 7:00 P.M. ET.
