We’re sure that, at some point in your life, you saw that part in Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” video where he dances while killing some guy with a friggin’ gun and thought, “Gee whiz, I wish I could be that cool!” Well, you can’t. It’s actually impossible. We checked. However, EA’s free-to-play online shooter Battlefield Heroes may now be your best chance at looking the part with the addition of two Michael Jackson-themed outfits.
If you’re a goodie two-shoes, the aforementioned Smooth Criminal Suit of Ultimate Snazz is up for grabs, and if you play as a bad guy, Jackson’s black suit from – what else – “Bad” is yours for the taking. Both are free for everyone, making this the only situation in which being an ostentatiously dressed Michael Jackson in the middle of a warzone won’t make you stand out. Also, thanks to EA’s charitable action, “Bad” and “Smooth Criminal” will probably be stuck in your head for a decent portion of the rest of your life.
Both outfits are available at the Battlefield Heroes website. We can’t think of anything else to say because “Smooth Criminal” has now taken up permanent (and every loud) residence in our craniums. Comment about… something. Or whatever.

...in a grocery store. Some old Micheal Jackson song got started on their radio.
Her: I JUST LOVE THIS SONG! Don't you!!?
Me: I don't listen to this guy anymore.
Her: Why not?
Me: This guy's a child molester.
Her: No he isn't!
Me: I'm convinced he is. The door on the courtroom was a revolving door for celebrities. One could get away with almost anything under those circumstances.
Her: Well, he did that AFTER he made this song!
Me: For me, the fact that he did it killed my interest in earlier works.
Her: Well, y'know what? It's okay, because he's micheal jackson!
I had no response for it then. I have no response for it now.
Billy Mays died recently, he's well known. Hell, he's likely been seen more times on TV than Micheal Jackson. And y'know what, I don't think he ever molested any kids!!!
I wanna play Battlefield Heroes in a blue shirt and Khakis.
