“Game On”
Boot up, embrace the feeling
The start button is the portal to your being
Turn on, it’s a pleasure device
Game with me, the ultimate spice

I promise you it won’t ever be dull
In a world you’re all powerful
I’ll buff you, don’t be afraid
It’s Tuesday night, Let’s do this raid!

Game On! Is it immature?
Game On! I’m insecure
Game On! Don’t g-quit on me!
Game On! We got keyboard chemistry

(DANCE BREAK)

I feel so much shame
I get dissed for saying that I game
No one understands
Why I’m living in a fantasy land

In-game you’ve got cool hair
Go from slumdog to a millionaire
Level up, Feel the bliss
Forward slash, Almost kiss

Game On! Invite sent!
Game On! Hop on Vent!
Game On! Say it proud!
Game On! Screw the crowd!

Game On! No one else to please!
Game On! I’ll press your hot keys!
Game On! There’s no disgrace.
Go to hell real life I’ll punch you in the face!

(FIGHT BREAK)

Game on! (x8)
Game On! Steal my breath!
Game On! No perma-death!
Game On! Don’t resist!
Game On! Give that bulb a twist

Internet sabhi desh ko jodataa hai (The internet connects all nations)
Frustration nikalanekaa raastaa hai (Provides a outlet for all frustrations)
ONLINE GAMING may kuchh buraa nahi Hai (Nothing wrong with online gaming)
Us Vichhar CONTROL-ALT-DELETE” (Control-Alt-Delete that feeling)

I’ll admit, when we party it sizzles
Won’t let the spell fizzle
Grab the reigns, don’t re-roll
Point and click, take control!

Game On! No disrespect!
Game On! We’re not rejects!
Game On! No remorse!
This is a feeling you can’t outsource!

Game On! Invite sent!
Game On! I’m on Vent!
Game On! Never g-quit on me!
Game On! We’ve got keyboard chemistry.
Game On! Game On! Game On! Game Onnnnnnnnn….

    I thought this one was just as funny as do you wanna date my avatar, and I thought the video was almost as good, but do you wanna date my avatar is so catchy.

      Game On.. and Avatar. are these guys making billions yet? both of those songs are just so *^%***& awesome! so is the crew and Felicia! They should do music and have the guild moved in to a half hour sitcom on a major network, not fox(will get cancelled before it begins, like all the awesome shows on it). I read her, Felicia’ voice is untouched in this song, if so wow.

        I completely agree! ESPECIALLY THE PART ABOUT NOT PUTTING IT ON FOX!!! I hate Fox soooooo much. They canceled Firefly, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and countless other awesome shows. Not to mention they canceled Family Guy! TWICE!!!
        Rupert Murdoc is one of the most widely hated “media bigshots” in the industry. For those of you who don’t know who he is: he owns Fox and therefor is responsible for the shows that are canceled.

        I agree that they should most definitely be making more money, but I’m not so sure about signing with a major network. There is a high chance that the network will want to impose its views on the show and therefore alter it, ruining the originality and charm it already has. Too much risk, they should keep it as it is and hopefully make more money as they continue there work :)

      I’m with you on that one, Alexis. When I first saw Tink, my thought was ‘she looks odd…’ and then I realized it was because she was smiling. It kinda freaked me out.

      Posted August 1, 2010 at 12:18 am | Permalink

      I agree, Vork’s entrance was simply boss. He looked like something out of the Matrix and Blade combined. Cool, savvy and just plain killer. This video was just awesome, it is as good in a total spectrum as the predecessor video Date my Avatar, even though both are obviously so different, both was incredibly enjoyable. Onward with season 4 and keep them video’s flippin’ like flapjacks!! GAME ON!

    Thank goodness they were using auto-tuner. If it wasn’t for that they would sound horrible. And yes, you can easily tell it was an enhanced version of their voice. :(

    • Chris
      Posted August 1, 2010 at 3:59 am | Permalink

      There was one part where it sounded pretty obvious that Zaboo’s voice was being auto-tuned, but I’m not sure if it was like that the whole way through. After Dr Horrible, I think it’s quite possible that Codex/Felicia wasn’t auto-tuned, though.

      • Greg
        Posted August 1, 2010 at 5:56 am | Permalink

        Auto-tune of one degree or another is pretty much a standard on all music videos and music cd’s. Some need it more than others. Some just need it over some rough spots. Let’s quit being auto-tune critics and just enjoy the video for what it is…FUN.

      Here ya go, voice expert. A live recording of Felicia Day singing Date My Avatar “unplugged”. If after that you still can’t stop flapping your virtual lips to nitpick, stick both thumbs in your mouth, go sit in the corner and let the rest of us enjoy these vids for the fun they’re supposed to be.

    Great Tink’, perhaps not enough Clara, definitely not enough Codex singing, perfect Vork, not enough Bladezz (Bladezz is hawt), but way, way too much Zaboo O.O I know it fits the indian music though.

    All in all, really liked the clip. I think it was pretty well-balanced — just that I’m really peculiar! ;D

      I think the video was pretty kickass. Felicia and Amy looked delicious, and sounded great, touched or not… I’d like to touch them in other ways myself, hehe.

    I just want to know who did the choreography. It’s not listed on the credits but whoever it was did a great job. The series is great in its own right but the addition of some holiday specials coupled with music videos and its a Smörgåsbord of entertainment. It becomes the complete package!

    • Charles
      Posted August 3, 2010 at 12:09 am | Permalink

      If I were to venture a guess, I’d say Amy’s dancing background may have played a part. She might not have choreographed the whole thing, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she contributed.

    • Posted August 5, 2010 at 9:00 am | Permalink

      Straight from Kim Evey:
      “Chantal Robson who also choreographed “Date My Avatar” and is really good friends with Felicia and Maurissa Tancharoen did the choreography. There is so much? great stuff, some of which we didn’t use here. We’ll try to release a separate dance video so you can see all the moves.”

    Well since it’s not up on here yet Im just gonna post it on the most recent vid. Episode 3 was great! was staying up for it to come on the website and then i remembered i have xbox live and could go on and hope it was there.. and it was! I’m starting to wonder really how the whole like fawkes/codex affairness is gonna end up. ‘nother guild LAN off? Or possibly a Zaboo and fawkes duel…and oh jeez i’m rambling..anyway, i’ll probably comment on the actual video when it comes up too.(lack of a life gives me the luxury of doing so)

    On first viewing I didn’t like this at all. But I support The Guild and bought it on iTunes and have watched it maybe 10 times now and LOVE IT. It is so well done and each viewing brings something new I haven’t noticed before. I think the editing in ‘Avatar’ still holds up but this is a wonderful new offering. You guys are so talented and creative. When do we get the music MP3 version??

    A few things to say:
    1: This video is JUST as awesome as Avatar, but in a totally different style. :3
    2: Ever since I bought this song, I end up playing it when I start up WoW. ^_^
    3: Yes, Vork is indeed, Epic.
    4: Sandeep actually did those flips? Awesome!
    5: Tink smiles in the show… but yeah, this is one of the few times it’s not seething with malicious intent… :P

    And lastly, so far, this season is turning out AWESOME!!! :D Can’t wait for the next episode! :D

    Heeeey! That was a rip off from Kalluri Vaanil, of Prabhu Deva
    Here:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEnr_9PSIUA

    A lot of moves came from there!
    It doesn’t matter, that was very very cool anyways!
    Miss Felicia, you are outstanding!
    and Mr. Sandeep, you rock!
    Every member is great here as well!

    Wanna date my avatar is catchier, though =P

        It’s a great video, every bit as worthy of the guild as the other video.
        I only pointed that out, since I didn’t see anyone doing it.

        Before saying harsh comments, try to be nice, ok?

          The term “ripoff” is very negative, which is why people would take offense to what you said. Of course it’s not a ripoff, as it’s a very obvious *parody* of the Prabhu Deva video, all the way to the Buffalaxed subtitles to Vork’s singing.

    Great video guys.

    Felicia, did you sing your part? If so, you did a fantastic job – especially in the “I feel so much shame” warble. Tough to do.
