Guitar Hero: On Tour Impressions

I just got a copy of Guitar Hero: On tour for my Nintendo DS and I got a bit of time to try some of the songs and the peripherals. The game comes with a hand strap/grip, guitar pick (stylus), stickers and the game. The hand grip has four buttons on it, which correspond to […]

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith to Have Drum and Microphone Peripherals

According to an item description released by Best Buy on the upcoming Guitar Hero: Aerosmith game, that no one really wants to buy, will have other instruments. The description is as follows:
Take on the roles of Aerosmith members Joe Perry, Brad Whitford and Tom Hamilton.
I know damn well they all didn’t sing. Best Buy […]

Rock Band Drums Kits in the Wild

While over at Wal-Mart earlier today, I spotted a nice stack of Rock Band drum kits for sale. They had both Xbox 360 and PS3 versions for $79.92. Yeah, gotta love being 7 cents below MSRP.

I guess is people bought the standalone game, the drum kit is good. I think putting out extra guitars would […]

New PS3… the white model?

Looks like there is a mythical white 40 Gb Sony PS3 perhaps coming our way in North America? Or at least Sony felt the need to file the pictures with the FCC. I wonder if the possible white version also is a magnet for dust like the black version? Will the white version also come […]

CES 2008: Gaming Monitor

I came across this monitor and the concept is pretty sweet, but in practice how can you justify having this huge monitor on your desk just to play FPS games. From the look of this monitor it is pretty deep which won’t exactly be a great selling point, although it does give you that peripheral […]

Replacement RockBand peripherals

Well recently a brand new (sort of) PS3 wireless guitar showed up on my doorstep to replace my dysfunctional one that came with my PS3 RockBand bundle. It came in a doubled up box that I will use to ship back the defective one, making the process pretty simple although putting a $100+ charge on […]

The joy of returning peripherals, shame on RockBand

Well with the excitement of RockBand upon us all, many of those good boys and girls that waited so eagerly to open their bundles of RockBand made a rather rude discovery. Their peripherals were broken, this could range from a nonfunctional guitar, broken whammy bar, a strum bar that had a mind of it’s own […]

Rock Band Rant

Rock Band is probably one of the most fun games to play during this holiday season, you can easily spend a few hours playing it before you even realize it. Oh and once you play Rock Band you realize that poor old Guitar Hero is a joke of a game in comparison. Rock Band really […]

Rock Band - PS3 vs. 360 comparison

Okay, so I recently had the opportunity to get some real hands on time with both versions of Rock Band for the PS3 and Xbox 360 and here is how it breaks out. Both games are for all extensive purposes identical for either system, you can form a band or play solo tours or just […]
