Flight Of The Conchords Coming To Rock Band

This week’s Rock Band update might have not been for me, but this certainly is. Formerly New Zealand’s fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo accapella-rap-funk comedy folk duo, Flight Of The Conchords will apparently be making their way to Rock Band. At the Emmy Awards in America, where FOTC were...

Review: The Beatles: Rock Band

A Beatles based music game has been a long time coming. In fact, it’s surprised me that it’s taken so long for the scouse foursome to show up in videogame form. Have Harmonix done justice to one of the most popular bands of all time? Well…I think so.

Rock Band Weekly – Pearl Jam’s Backspacer

After weeks and weeks of Harmonix taking money from me, their good run has come to an end. Not that Pearl Jam aren’t a good band, they’re just not my cup of tea. Their new album, ‘Backspacer’, is being released this week, both, in Rock Band and in the...

Rock Band Weekly – British Invasion Edition

Tis the morning after Noel Gallagher announced that he would be leaving Oasis, but that doesn’t mean that we still can’t play their songs in Rock Band. Harmonix have announced that a live version of, the Manchester band’s first single, Supersonic would be available to download as of next...

Rock Band Weekly – Tom Petty – Support: Billy Idol, Fleetwood Mac, Jet And…Zombies?

One of the aforementioned ‘friends’ of Rock Band is coming to a console/service near you this week.  Tom Petty will be headlining alongside Billy Idol, Fleetwood Mac and, Aussie rockers, Jet. This is now the 5th week in a row that Harmonix will be taking cash from my PlayStation...

Rock Band To Hit 1,000 Tracks With The Help Of Some Friends

Harmonix like setting themselves targets. They’ve done it in the past and they’re about to do it again. The music game extraordinaires have said that there’ll be 1,000 tracks in Rock Band by the end of 2009.

The Majority Of The Beatles: Rock Band Setlist Revealed

EA, just a few hours ago, sent out a press release containing 44 of the 45 tracks on The Beatles: Rock Band disc. Who knows what the last track will be, but my money is on either Help! or Hey Jude. I thought those omissions were a little odd....

Rock Band Weekly – More Foo Fighters?! I Predict A Riot

It’s that time again folks! Harmonix have once again decided they needed to take money from my wallet with the release of more DLC from bands I like. First up, there’s more here for Foo Fighters fans. 3 new tracks are added to the game from the Foo’s back...

Buy Guitar Hero 5, Get Van Halen Free

Activision have announced a pretty sweet deal for Guitar Hero fans. Anyone who buys Guitar Hero 5 in the month of September (the game launches Sept. 5th) will get a free copy of Guitar Hero: Van Halen. The best part about this is that, those who partake in this...

Rock Band Weekly – Feel Good Inc. Welcomes You

Harmonix seems to really like doing two things at the moment. The first is one-upping Activision Blizzard with every new Rock Band DLC update. “What, Gorillaz are in DJ Hero? Right then, lets get this rolled out” (My interpretation of how Harmonix organise their DLC oneupmanship). Subsequently the second...
