If you didn't hear about it with the first commercial, then Mr. T is here to tell it to you straight once again. He has the greatest hair in the world, so it's the privilege of looking as good as he does in World of Warcraft is now available through an in-game item called the mohawk grenade. Players can pick up these grenades from Night Elf Mohawks stationed outside beginner areas and throw them at other players. Players caught in the blast get the Mr. T makeover.

Some may have doubted Mr. T's overwhelming hacker skills, but it looks like he's finally put all naysayers to rest and changed the face of World of Warcraft. Introducing, the Mohawk Grenade. It's an in-game item that can be hurled at other players to give them a "T-riffic haircut." Mohawk Grenades can be claimed from any Night Elf Mohawk NPC camped outside every starting zone. How long will these grenades be available? Until the Night Elf Mohawks decide that their work is done and move on...

We would think this is an April Fool's joke if this wasn't April 27. However, Slovenia-based game developer ZootFly is apparently very serious in their announcement today of a new game starring one of the greatest men of all time . . .Mr. T. Yep, the bad boxer in Rocky III and the gruff but lovable B.A. on the A-Team TV series will star in a series of "over-the-top adrenaline-pumping action " games.

The games themselves are based on the Mr. T comic book license from Mohawk Media. ZootFly says the first game will feature the man who makes us feel pity " . . . take on Nazis and their gigantic machines in the varied universe of South American rain forests, lost ancient cities, industrial complexes and contemporary military installations." Perhaps the oddest thing about this press release is that ZootFly claims that a fictional version Sims and Spore creator Will Wright will also appear in the game.

Their press release states, " In this universe, Will Wright is not a top-notch game designer but a top-notch American geneticist who was kidnapped and coerced to work on a diabolic plan. Mr. T and Will Wright will join forces to annihilate the Nazis and their hardware." Well of course they do. We plan to contact Will Wright to find of if he has given his approval for this move. No release date for the game was announced.
