Free Stephen Colbert for the Rocking
Have Rock Band for the Xbox 360? Go take a look on Xbox Live, because Harmonix has just offered Stephen Colbert’s amazing ’80s hit “Charlene (I’m Right Behind You)” free for the downloading. While none of us can rock quite as hard as Colbert?you can see the music video above for proof?it’s mighty neat to be given the chance. So between Rock Band and Guitar Hero, we’re able to play songs from Metalocalypse, Strongbad, South Park and Portal…where the hell are my Flight of the Conchords? (Via Kotaku)

He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
