Very very very nice to confirm that Survival is a bonus track.

Word.

With all this promotion and seeing as there will be a shitload more promo to come, and with the 2nd single most likely appealing to a wider crowd (i'm not saying it'll be some compromised shit, i'm saying it will be a serious song like most of his 2nd singles, which does appeal to a wider crowd) it could surpass TES 1st week sales (1.3M).

i want this album to outsell tes or atleast one of his older albums, n i want him to shit on bandwagon fans aswell who think he felll off :worship:

also the promotion only lasts for a day, I don't think it will do very much for his first week sales.

Oh, cool. Two questions:

1. I wonder if the blonde hair will be present in the Survival video?
2. Does anybody have a CDQ download of Survival (mine has a few audio oddities in it)?

Does anyone think that cod and MMLP2 releasing on the same day will have a small effect on the album sales ?

There will be a lot of American kid's getting cod because all there friends are, wmommy won't stretch to buy the album too.

But I guess thats why there's a code huh?

This worries me, more specifically the end. Makes it sound like Survival is on the album, and we also get an exclusive bonus track for the code.

Activision and Eminem jointly announced today that all preorders of Ghosts at GameStop in the US and other retailers worldwide will receive a discounted price to buy Eminem’s new album on Nov. 5th.

The energy and intensity of ‘Survival’ really matches Call of Duty: Ghosts,” commented Eminem. “I’m excited to continue to be a part of the franchise.”

This program continues the close coordination announced in August, when Eminem first revealed “Survival,” a track from the upcoming album release as part of Activision’s worldwide live reveal event for the multiplayer mode of developer Infinity Ward’s new title. The ongoing collaboration between Activision and Eminem will continue later this month with a music video trailer featuring “Survival” and Call of Duty: Ghosts, and will extend throughout the launch of the blockbuster title.

Participating fans will receive a code on receipt with their purchase of Call of Duty: Ghosts. The code will make available for purchase at the special price of $8.99 an edition of The Marshall Mathers LP 2 featuring not only the track “Survival,” but also a bonus, exclusive studio track.


Also kind of confirms we'll get the video late this month.

Idk, the way it says Survival, than also a bonus. I just feel like it would have been worded different. Like "featuring 2 bonus tracks, Survival and a new exclusive studio track" or something like that.

Sounds like Survival is already on the regular version, and we get a bonus for getting Cod.
