Sony and EA recruited Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda to demonstrated Medal of Honor at Gamescom today.
The rapper – who is also the lead in rap band Fort Minor – demonstrated new mode Gunfighter to the assembled trade, media and partners at Sony’s press conference.
The mode allows gamers to take control of a helicopter and shoot the Taliban.
Linkin Park’s latest single – The Catalyst – debuted as part of a new Medal of Honor trailer earlier this month.

![Core Keeper key art 1 [Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity](https://mcvuk.com/wp-content/uploads/Core-Keeper-key-art-1-310x165.jpg)
More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
