The Week In Games: October 5th-11th

Another Week, another 7 days of game releases. Not a terrible week, just nothing spectacular. Later this month will completely demolish what you are seeing now (LBP, Far Cry 2, Fallout 3, Guitar Hero World Tour, Dead Space, etc.). We’ve got a lot of sports this week,...

Harmonix Responds To EU Patch Worries

Quest For Booty Blu-Ray Binned

After continuing to listen to the rather large 1Up Yours podcast whilst writing, I have found out that Rock Band is a timed Xbox 360 exclusive in Europe (Boo). The price is still not confirmed but most places (i.e. Eurogamer) are quoting £180. The timed exclusive means that PS2,...

Rock Band Announced For Europe – Apparently No PS3 Version Yet!

I should’ve posted about this earlier but I guess I just forgot as I already have Rock Band (sorry for bragging). Like many of you will know I imported Rock Band a few months back and absolutely love it and after hearing the European price and apparent PS3 delay...
