Question
Dear Scorpion.
My question here is:
Was there any inspiration or backstory for play for blood? (one of the most underrated songs of Megadeth, and one of my favourites).
The lyrics in that song are simply amazing. Thanks for the time you put in answering some questions.
Tomas, Argentina
Answer
Dear Tomas,
I'm glad you asked about that song, it's a great one and the underlying theme applies to so many people. It's actually a metaphor for all the crazy gaming cultures and how addictive the games become - ultimately creating a fantasy world where people no longer "play" for fun.
I personally don't play any games due to the lack of opposable thumbs, but I think there's no point unless you play for blood.
