Match The Song To A Game — So Play Me, Maybe

Let’s face it, this article only exists to talk about music. It’s actually a content breaker, as we’re always talking about games. We’re only covering it by linking it to games, but how often can they actually link to games?

Whatever though, we try.

In the eGamer team, I am known for missing my schedule on this feature. Whenever it’s my turn — which is every second week, alternating with Alessandro — I forget. This week, not so much.

A popular song on 9gag, and uhh, the radio, “Call Me Maybe”. It’s quite catchy, and it’s either loved or hated. Many hate, unfortunately.

The line which made the song popular is “Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here’s my number, so call me, maybe?”

We can change that, can’t we? Which game would ask you to call it, maybe? Probably a game you loved, or a game you were excited to play — only to finish it and stop playing. At the moment games will never ask you to call them, but in the future, who knows? I mean, they want to implement online-only play, and basing on that logic, a game calling you to play is totally possible.

If you haven’t figured this out, yeah — I only use this regular article to talk about songs which are completely irrelevant and piss everyone off. Don’t believe me? Check the archive.

So, here’s the song, and if you cannot link it to a game, just voice your thoughts on it, maybe?

    I… quite enjoy this song. It’s been stuck in my head for weeks and it’s certainly better than say, Domino, another song that sets up shop in your memory upon hearing it.

    How about Prototype? Alex finds love in his search for the truth about his past. The female in question, aware of who Alex is, nevertheless throws caution to the wind, walks up to him and goes: “I can’t look right, at you baaaaby! But here’s my number, so call me maybe.” 

    And then he consumes her because she’s a web of intrigue character or something. Scumbag Alex.
