Return of the Blog

Posted: August 5, 2010 in Breaking News

Hey all it’s been a very long time since you’ve heard from us here at the blog. Things got busy around here and I just decided to call it quits on the blog but don’t worry because we’re back in full force! Expect updates throughout the week on all of the latest games and gadgets!

Next week’s Rock Band downloadable content brings you Rush’s Moving Pictures (for real this time) along with 6 other rocking singles by various artists.

We imagine that Activision Blizzard has more green cash money than a number of medium-sized countries thanks to their ownership of some ridiculously profitable franchises. While the skeptical industry analyst might expect them to sit on their surplus, or perhaps swim through it Scrooge McDuck style, a recent announcement from Activision revealed that they’re using said wealth to provide faux-rockers with a pretty terrific pre-order bonus for Guitar Hero: World Tour — an extra guitar peripheral.

As far as we can tell, the offer is only extended to those living (and purchasing rhythm games) in the UK, and is limited to pre-orders of the GH:WT bundle (currently retailing for £150 in most online stores). While it’s scientific fact that the modern gaming enthusiast already owns approximately seven guitar peripherals, newcomers to the rockstar simulation genre will now be able to play with a full band without incurring any pesky fees for an extra axe. Would-be bassists, rejoice!

That seems like a long time to wait, but trust me, this year has flown by. Don’t expect to have to wait too much longer. Who knows?
