A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games It's been an intense last few weeks in video games and the news and I'm sorry we've missed a few recaps for the week. I blame E3 and SDCC for being so closely crammed together and there being so many new video games and experiences to have to cover. We are small but we are mighty when it comes to covering our video games. If we weren't you wouldn't have had those track listings for both Rock Band 4 and Guitar Hero Live to go through here. Read More...

Eleven new tracks have been added to Rock Band 4 to expand the on-disk track list even further We've had a short list of six songs for Rock Band 4 already announced to be on the game's disk when it launches on October 6th for the PS4 and Xbox One. We'll be able to move over all of our downloaded songs without issue, even though they may not all be able to use all the new Rock Band 4 features at launch, but of course we want to have a nice array of songs to play out the gate. Harmonix knows this and they are taking great care to add more to the game disk for Rock Band 4 as well as letting us submit our own ideas for great songs for the game. Even if some of them may end up being DLC after Rock Band 4 launches but still… Well it looks like we get to add eleven more tracks to the list of on-disk tracks for Rock Band 4. Read More...

A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games Finally we are back on track and getting all of the video game news and updates finally out there from E3. There was a whole lot to cover in the world of video games and we did our best to get everything we could during and after the week. This included some great hands on impressions for Mad Max, Guitar Hero Live, Drawn To Death, and Assassin's Creed Syndicate. These were also only some of the video games we were able to get to and we all know that there was a whole lot more but our team is limited here and we can only get to so many video games in the day.

While At E3 I Was Able To See Rock Band 4 In A More Intimate Setting Than Just The Trailer. Here's My Take On It The rhythm games are making a comeback strong this year and Rock Band 4 is not going to slouch around and let the others take the limelight it is known for. In fact at E3 the only way to get hands on with Rock Band 4 was to swing by the stages that Harmonix and Mad Catz had set up to play the game on as well as give you that extra feeling of being a rock star again. We are all going to feel this way when October 6th rolls around and we hook up Rock Band 4 to our PS4 or Xbox One. This isn't just your good old fashioned Rock Band though as Rock Band 4 is also coming along with a few more updates than just the better controllers and drum fillers during the game. Read More...

A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games It is now time to jump out of the frying pan and into the video game fire. This week is done but that only means that E3 week is up next. Oh all the video game news we are going to be slammed with there. There's the new Mirror's Edge Catalyst, Fallout 4, Drawn To Death, Hellblade, Rock Band 4, and The Walking Dead just to spout off a few. Of course we will all be up to our eyeballs in new video game news, impressions, and hands on after next week. Hells during it at that too. Read More...

Another, yet more detailed, look at the Rock Band 4 controllers that we will need to truly shine in Rock Band 4 Next week a lot of us, media and fans alike, are going to get to get our hands on Rock Band 4 and give the game a good play through at E3. In this case it won't be only the game but also the new controllers being made just for Rock Band 4 by Mad Catz. Something that also needs to be impressive to be able to show off all of the work that Harmonix has put into the game thus far and moving forward. We've had looks in that past at all of them but it was more glitz and glamour as to what to expect for the Rock Band 4 hardware but some people like me want to know more than just "the buttons are quieter" when it comes to the controllers. Read More...

The new campaign mode for Rock Band 4 will have you playing Gigs that feel realistic and not one song wonders So far we have heard a lot on how Rock Band 4 will be changing the hardware we will use to pretend to be rock stars with when it launches later this year. Not much has been given to us on how Harmonix is changing the gameplay or what they are planning on adding to the overall experience. This of course means here we go with our first little bit on how they are changing gameplay for Rock Band 4. This time in the way of what is called Gigs for the game. Read More...

A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games Someone crank up the Queen as another week in video game news as bit the dust. Wow that was kind of a lame way to start out with but at least we have a whole lot of awesome video game new and updates for you to make up for it. Granted it is very Batman: Arkham Knight and The Wither 3 heavy when it is all boiled down but at least we had a nice look at the new controllers for Rock Band 4. Not to mention all of the excitement of Nintendo setting up some great themed areas at Universal Parks across the globe. Read More...

With the updates for Rock Band 4 Harmonix has also upgraded the hardware and now we have a look at what has been changed We have yet to see official gameplay for Rock Band 4 but we have had a look at the new controllers for the game and how Harmonix is changing things up to give us that rock star feeling all over again. Well, to clarify they have given IGN exclusive "first rites" to the Rock Band 4 and the virtual rock star feeling as it is Guitar Hero Live that is aiming for the real feel. Now that is out of the way we can dig right in to what we can expect to be plugging into our PS4 or Xbox One later this year to experience what Harmonix and Mad Catz will be bringing with Rock Band 4. Read More...

It was recently announced that Mad Catz will co-publish Rock Band 4 with Harmonix to bring it to the PS4 and Xbox One Take it as good news, bad news, just news, but Mad Catz is going to be co-publishing Rock Band 4 with Harmonix. This to me seems like the perfect marriage to get Rock Band 4 out and with the equipment some may still need to fully enjoy playing the game. For those who may not know somehow, Mad Catz is one of those companies that make all of those custom controllers, fight sticks, and Rock Band controllers in the past. At least versions of them so, like I said, it makes perfect sense that they would partner up with Harmonix here to help bring Rock Band 4 to the PS4 and Xbox One. Read More...

A recent interview with Eric Pope from Harmonix discusses the new engine and a possible release month for Rock Band 4 Earlier this month we had the solid confirmation that Rock Band 4 is on its way this year to the PS4 and Xbox One. There were a few other little things also confirmed at the time as well. According to a new interview in a UK games industry magazine (MCV) there have been even more details talked about as well as a possible release month of October of this year instead of "sometime this year." Amazing news indeed and would make sense with the franchise's past releases but now I am getting ahead of myself with the Rock Band 4 news. Read More...

A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games Two big video game conventions happened and are still going on this week which in turn means we had a lot to cover. New updates, rumors, releases, announcement, and all that video game jazz. We also had you covered all week with our special little flair added in the mix. From things like the Mortal Kombat X rumors to the announcement of Rock Band 4 and the release date for Mad Max and The Phantom Pain. That includes all of the video game new in between too. Read More...

Rock Band 4 has been officially announced by Harmonix and is coming to the PS4 and Xbox One this year It's been rumored and speculated on and now we can confirm that Rock Band is making the jump to the PS4 and Xbox One via Rock Band 4. Granted this isn't in any shape of an HD "remaster" of any past version as the speculation pointed at, it is a whole new Rock Band for the next generation consoles. The next best part about this announcement is that Rock Band 4 will be hitting our homes sometime this year. The best guess will be sometime around November or December of this year but Harmonix has claimed that Rock Band 4 will be out in 2015. Read More...

A Lot Has Gone On This Week. Here's A Recap Of What We Covered In Video Games There we go with the first real week of video games news. Loads and loads of new stuff and we were only able to cover so much, as usual. Evolve and Battlefield Hardline have been some of the bigger things but we can forget about the two new characters fully revealed for Mortal Kombat X and all of the horror titles we can look forward to in the near future. That being Until Dawn for the PS4 and the recently announced Friday The 13th title in the works. Like I said, a whole lot in the first real week of video games news. Read More...

In the wake of some new Rock Band DLC, Harmonix has issued out a new survey that could mean a new title or next gen port If you signed up for Rock Band's newsletter or linked your games to Harmonix's web accounts then you might have received a nice little email recently asking you to take a survey. If you did not, then A you are missing out and B you would not have been asked directly about all of your past Rock Band experiences. These kinds of surveys go out all of the time and in fact this would be the second one I have seen in the last few months. Read More...
