"Jackson" Zombie Pulled From Plants vs Zombies
"A recent update to the popular Popcap game has swapped out the Jackson-like dancing zombie."
Published: 28th July 2010 | Source: MTV Multiplayer |
When Plants vs Zombies was released, it was praised for its fun gameplay and eccentric cast of zombie opponents. Among these enemies was a dancing zombie that bore a striking resemblance to a "Thriller"-clad Michael Jackson. Unfortunately, it seems this pop king-inspired zombie is no more.
With the most recent update to the game, the Jackson zombie has been pulled out, swapping in a disco-themed dancer sporting an afro. This decision was made after PopCap received a complaint from the Jackson Estate.
"The Estate of Michael Jackson objected to our use of the 'dancing zombie' in PLANTS vs. ZOMBIES based on its view that the zombie too closely resembled Michael Jackson. After receiving this objection, PopCap made a business decision to retire the original 'dancing zombie' and replace it with a different 'dancing zombie' character for future builds of PLANTS vs.ZOMBIES on all platforms. The phase-out and replacement process is underway."
As a note to iPhone owners who currently own the game, don't go through the update process quite yet. A bug causes the game to crash after the process. A fix is currently in the works. New purchasers are not affected.

originally i wanted a silverstone fortress case (really want a case with right hand access as left side will face a wall)
but from watching the video reviews and much thinking the fortress just looked to cramped to do what i want in it.
700d looks perfect aside from faceing the wrong way but ill just have to do a kick ass painting or get a vynal image to mount the side i see.
Have you considered the Temjin BTW? Not sure how it stacks up against newer cases but it's a legend.
