There’s about 40,000 Mario music videos out there, I know. But really, this one is awesomerer than most. In particular when it speeds up (as the timer runs low), and the mosh pit ending.

Well it’s been a busy week for the game voted “Most likely not to leave my Xbox” by, um… myself. Earlier this week, a couple of sites leaked about 30 songs from the upcoming game’s setlist. Instead of issuing a cease and desist, or denial, the crew from Harmonix went the complete opposite direction. They [...]

So no sooner than I post that no picture of the new Rock Band 3 Pro Guitar peripheral exists, Destructoid goes and blows out crazy details on the game modes and the instruments. Their articles are excellent and well worth a read if you’re getting fanatical about the game (instruments here, game thoughts here). Those [...]

Boy the E3 news is coming out before E3 this year, huh? Guess it makes sense if you don’t want your game buried below all the other news. To that point, Rock Band 3 got tore open by USA Today (of all places) this AM. So what do we know? The new keyboard peripheral is [...]

Earlier this month, we posted about the horribly bad move of allowing Guitar Hero 5 players to “use” Kurt Cobain in any way they wanted in GH5. Well, seems like the web picked up on it and caused the expected “OMG WTF BBQ” response. So, here’s what you’ve missed since then. Warning: Bad Nirvana references [...]

This weekend, the 09 edition of the Penny Arcade Expo kicks off on the west coast. So what, you say? Not a Penny Arcade fan? Well, I’ll let that slide. But odds are you are a fan of Rock Band, and that’s what we’re talking about here. See, Harmonix-staffed rockers Freezepop, Jonathan Coulton, MC Frontalot [...]

Look, I know it seems we write about the same 5 or so games over and over here lately. “They’ve made a Guitar Hero post… a Modern Warfare Post… must be time for a Rock Band post!” Well you’re right! And if you don’t like it, get your own blog. Ahem. As I was saying. [...]

At some point in the future, I’m sure there will be a GH5 review on this site. Shit, who knows: whomever reviews it might actually like the game. I can tell you it sure as shit won’t be me! But as far as I’m concerned, this video above ______: A) Shows Why Courtney Love Sucks. [...]

Did you know that the first person who got behind The Beatles: Rock Band was Dhani Harrison? That the pitch for the game began before Rock Band was announced? And have you ever wondered how the hell there will be a multitrack when all of the early Beatles recordings were mixed mono? There’s a lot [...]

So, perhaps Guitar Hero: Van Halen wasn’t the best kept secret out there. It’s been subject to rumor and speculation for some time now, well before it was announced shortly before E3. Now, famous early leak site XBox360Achievements.org has posted the GH:VH (good acronym, almost makes it sound as good as AC:DC) achievements. Expecting surprises? [...]
