Are you a Wii owner that’s just itching to get your hands on Rock Band for your beloved console? I can’t blame you, as the game is fun as hell. However, it won’t be quite the same experience that is found on the 360 or PS3 due to the lack of downloadable content. When [...]
It seems like Rock Band has been out forever here in the US. I almost can’t remember a time when I wasn’t able to rock out to all of these awesome tracks. Unfortunately Europe has not has such a luxury. Thankfully the official launch date has been confirmed, and it’s not too far out, at [...]
Hands-on Mobile and Magmic Games are the two companies that are partnered up in an effort to bring one of the best mobile games of all time to your BlackBerry. Being a primarily business oriented device the BlackBerry has been passed up on a lot of really cool mobile games, but this is one that [...]
Activision really isn’t having a good week. They’ve now got a lawsuit in their laps from Gibson (which sounds like a load of crap) and now Harmonix is starting trouble with them. Apparently Activision still owes the former developer royalties to the tune of around $14.5 million for their work in the Guitar Hero series.
Last week I brought you the news that Guitar Hero publisher Activision is really working hard at trying to put user-generated tracks into the game, even if won’t be ready for another 5 years or more.

When they parted ways with Red Octane they decided [...]
There are some things that just make a person feel very patriotic. One of the big reasons why I love the US is because we don’t get screwed on release dates like some countries. Sure, Japan got Super Smash Bros. Brawl a month before we did, big deal. That’s nothing to the wait Europe [...]
It’s Tuesday, and that means there are fresh tracks just waiting to be downloaded for Rock Band. Well, that’s if you’re an Xbox 360 owner. My apologies to all of the PS3 rockers out there, you still have to wait an extra two days for your new tracks. While I can’t say that this [...]
This week has given us some pretty interesting information regarding Rock Band. Unfortunately, most of it has been less than accurate, or at least unconfirmed. We’ve managed to get a little bit of clarification on both the new Mic that was said to be compatible with the Wii and the March DLC that was revealed [...]
I’m really not the kind of guy that jumps up, points and says “I told you so.” However, were I that type of person, I would be doing just that. As I pointed out earlier this week, Rock Band will be making its way to the Nintendo Wii.
