Two different rumored Rock Band 2 setlists appear

, Jul 7th 2008 Discuss [1]

Every year around this time, we are bombarded with rumors. Does the summer heat give everyone an excuse to stay inside and pass rumors? Maybe, but it also nearly E3 time, which is when the rumor mill is in full swing. The latest we have is not one, but two different “leaked” Rock Band setlists. These come from “trusted sources”, which must mean that they are both completely accurate, despite being different. Read on for both versions. Read The Full Story

Rock Band goes to Japan

, Jun 4th 2008 Discuss [0]

It seems that Rock Band has done moderately well (see: awesome) here in the US, so it's only natural that they're going to want to release the game in other parts of the world. We've known for some time that they were going to have a European release (even if it did take a really long time to get there), but this is the first we've heard about it turning Japanese.

Rock Band Weekly DLC – Judas Priest is Screaming For Vengeance

, Apr 21st 2008 Discuss [0]

Rock Band has been out for a while now, and Harmonix has been true to their word about providing fresh DLC on a weekly basis. This has given us fresh new music to rock to, and thus keeps the gameplay fresh and fun. What we haven't seen is a full album released. Again, Harmonix is good on their word, and will be releasing their first full album tomorrow. Read The Full Story

Behold! Record Label, the latest game from Harmonix

, Apr 10th 2008 Discuss [1]

As you well know, April Fool's Day falls on the first day of the month. Unfortunately I think Harmonix missed that memo. Perhaps they thought that they might get a few suckers by waiting a few days to pull your prank. It's still pretty funny, even if it is over a week late. I give you Record Label. Read The Full Story
