Gene Simmons and KISS are the poster children of the term "selling out." You need not look any further than KISS Hello Kitty, which apparently is a thing.

Apparently, Simmons and company are eager to return to games. But don't expect a sequel to the Dreamcast-era game, KISS Psycho Circus. It appears KISS will be collaborating with one of gaming's biggest brands--Angry Birds.

"We're talking with Angry Birds, KISS and Angry Birds, which will become a deal," Simmons told IndustryGamers.

Simmons believes "the gaming world is waiting for the KISS games that are going to explode," and that he's focusing on "taking the brand to places where no band has gone before." Well, no one could have expected an Angry Birds crossover, that's for certain. "We are really trying to take it in areas that haven’t been done before and have stayed out of the marketplace because the ideas simply weren’t exciting enough."

      I wonder if the houses will be made of Dominoes.

      The bonuses will be Black Diamonds.

      I've only played Angry birds a couple of times, bought the mini on the PSN store. This will be a little bit of fun. if ever there was a band that fits into the world of video games, it's KiSS, and not saying that because they are my fave band either. I remember playing and liking the Psycho Circus game from years ago. Hopefully at some stage, there will be a bit of a revival in the music game genre...KISS would fit perfectly for guitar hero, or a Rock Band game (Still wonder why we got a Green Day Rock band but anyways)....even aside from the very deep catalog of Albums, the visuals would work perfectly...hopefully one day, will be able to play the Destroyer album in one of these games....

      Now I will sit band and watch myself get flamed to death....
