November 29th, 2008

 
Here is a prime example of America’s incessant spending habits. They were fighting over Wal-Mart’s Xbox 360 Arcade Guitar Hero 3 bundle for $199, BTW. Insane. No wonder there was fatalities yesterday.

Zero Punctuation on Guitar Hero World Tour

November 26th, 2008

Spot on, as usual. Well, except for the all the bibbly-babbly about Australia residents not getting Rock Band soon enough. Everyone knows that Australia isn’t somewhere you live - it’s somewhere you fly to every few years for snorkeling and koala petting.
(Man, I miss Australia.)

Xbox 360 game install sizes

November 24th, 2008

Now that the NXE lets users install games onto the hard drive, space is premium cause these games aren’t small.

Video: Rock Band developers aren’t very good at playing Rock Band

November 11th, 2008

This is a silly, nigh inaudible video of some Harmonix developers playing Rock Band. They mostly stink, I think—I’m not a Rock Band or Guitar Hero connoisseur—but as Kotaku points out, it’s hard to fault Harmonix completely.
First of all, this video was taken at the Nottingham GameCity3 event, whatever that was—it’s fair to assume [...]

Boobs and Guitar Hero: A global perspective

November 6th, 2008

In honor of Heidi Kium’s turn as a Risky Business-inspired Guitar Hero player (who, as John Brownlee notes, never looks at the screen), we present you with the ultimate Guitar Hero player, who, in the proud tradition of “hot girl playing Wii”, truly changes the way we look at a video gaming.
