Rock Band 3 Inadvertently Smiles for Camera at Gamescom

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 20th of August 2010 - 05:32 PM ]

<UPDATE> So because media outlets got the jump on confirming all the tracks in Rock Band 3 Harmonix decided to come out and "un-officially" confirm the rumors listed below. Way to try to cover up your mess there. But this isn't an announcement no matter how you try to play it. You guys screwed up and this is damage control. Just call it as it is. Source </UPDATE> You would think that in the "YouTube" generation everyone would realize that there are cameras everywhere. Read More...

E3 2010 Hands-On: Rock Band 3

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Saturday, 19th of June 2010 - 04:53 AM ]

This year at E3 had us taking a sneak peek at what was coming to Rock Band 3, including 22 of the promised 80+ songs set planned to be released. We also finally got to see what the new controllers from MadCatz and Fender will look like. But at E3 2010, they had so much more to show, as you hopefully read from Brian's, Binh's and my twitter accounts. If you haven't, or just really want to know what our thoughts are for it, let me break it down DJ Lance Rock style. First, they have completely redesigned the HUD/GUI for the game. Read More...

Review: Green Day Rock Band

by Brian Bentley [ Tuesday, 15th of June 2010 - 01:17 PM ]

Green Day Rock Band is a steady mixture of what you love from Harmonix – play style that is both easy to jump into and addictive – and what you hate about Activision’s Guitar Hero franchise – it feels repetitive and old. With Rock Band 2 a couple years past and Rock Band 3 on the way, it raises the question of how annual they expect to make the franchise and still get people to pay for it. This title is the spiritual successor to the infinitely popular The Beatles Rock Band released last year. That release was a great boon and innovation for the folks at Harmonix. Read More...

Cursed With Immortality And A Knights Contract

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 21st of May 2010 - 03:50 PM ]

Well isn't this interesting? Or at least look a bit interesting? A huge muscle bound guy with a scythe running around killing everything in sight. All while his partner, a witch, casts magic at everything in hopes to harm them and help Mr. Muscles. What is this gem called? Knights Contract if you haven't started watching the video by now. Now after you watch the video, think to yourself, "Is this an odd mass-up of every fast action game I have ever played?" You got God of War and Dante's Inferno mixed together for the big guy.

Rock Band Going To Metal Metal Land

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Tuesday, 30th of March 2010 - 03:50 PM ]

I knew it was going to be only a matter of time before the metal overlords known as GWAR made the move onto Rock Band. They hit up Guitar Hero already so why not move onto the Rock Band Network and spread their domination even further. Especially since Harmonix made it so much easier for bands to upload their songs to the network. Only a three week turn around most of the time, so they claim. There is no news on what songs or when the songs would most likely be seen, but from the interview performed at SXSW with lead singer/front man, Oderus Urungus, it looks to be in the works.

Green Day Rock Band Release Dated

by Brian Bentley [ Friday, 12th of March 2010 - 02:39 PM ]

Upon hearing the announcement of Green Day: Rock Band at the Video Game Awards, my face had a perplexed look that went deeper than when Jack Black pretended to freak out on stage at the beginning of the show. Completely unexpected, Harmonix chose Green Day as their follow-up band to give an exclusive title. So, the Beatles... then, Green Day. Read More...

Another South Park Song To Hit Rock Band

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 11th of March 2010 - 01:41 AM ]

While it is not Shitty Shitty Fag Fag or Blame Canada or even Uncle Fucker, it is one of the most amazing remixes and product placements in South Park in almost forever. I'm talking a little ditty that was featured with "Rock Band" during the episode of Whale Whores. Yea, that's right. Joining Timmy and The Lords Of The Underworld, artist and song title, is Eric Cartman's perfect rendition of Poker Face. A song that when I hear it gets stuck in my head for days. The Cartman version at least. Read More...

Rock Band To Let You Play The Super Bowl Half Time Show

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 5th of February 2010 - 03:41 PM ]

Well as long as you have a version of Rock Band that allows for DLC to be added onto your game. That and wait until after the game to buy the track from the Rock Band store. Like you would break anyways right. Between the Super Bowl it's self and the Super Bowl Commercials, when would you find the time anyways. Well that and if you are not too drunk buy then, but now I'm flowing off topic. Any Who, the fine minds over at Harmonix have gotten a hold of what The Who are going to be performing during the Half Time show. Read More...

What I Want: Rock Band Franchise

by Michael Camacho [ Monday, 14th of December 2009 - 12:47 AM ]

What I Want: From the Rock Band Franchise Recently I played Beatles: Rock Band and Lego Rock Band, and while one was looking back at a band's career and the other was geared to a younger crowd, they both did something that really caught my attention. They had a story, not just creating a band and playing songs at venues. You actually had a story to some gigs or had special concerts you held. I came to an instant revelation at this point.

Review: LEGO Rock Band

by Brian Bentley [ Wednesday, 25th of November 2009 - 09:26 PM ]

The LEGO® brand is known the world over. Beloved by kids and cherished by adults, “playing LEGOs” has been a part of our culture for over 50 years*. So, when the LEGO brand hit store shelves as a series of video games, consumers were elated. With tie-ins to licensed products, the games took on a life of their own – becoming immensely popular with the young and old. Something else popular with multiple demographics is the rhythm game genre. Enter LEGO Rock Band – a melding of the two products in a marketing dream scenario. Read More...
