I’ve heard a lot of different remixes of some beloved old-school songs, but this is the first time I heard a remake rock this hard. What makes the video more badass is how the artists, during their jam session, decide to play a little Mario with the lights off! That takes this video…. TO THE EXTREEEEME!!
During a visit to my local CVS in North Bergen, NJ, I noticed something quite interesting in one of the aisles. It seems CVS is starting to sell video games at this particular location. The game that was on sale was the Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock Guitar / Game Bundle for the Wii for a damn good price of $49.99, especially when you compare GameStop is selling the same bundle for $79.99. Looks like Christmas is coming early for some lucky boys & girls!
For those wondering if rumors of the Nintendo Wii dropping it’s price tag were just that.. rumors. No need to wonder. Nintendo has revealed through Press Release that on Sunday September 27th, you’ll be able to pick up the fastest selling console over the past 3 years, the Nintendo Wii for $199!
If you ever see a pipe in the park, I highly suggest you don’t approach it. You don’t know if that very pipe will include a Piranha Plant like the one above.
Last night during The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, Dhani Harrison was invited to sit and discuss The Beatles: Rock Band with Conan.
During the interview, Dhani said he was the mastermind behind making The Beatles: Rock Band a reality when he accidentally met with MTV president Van Toffler right after MTV had bought Harmonix. Through their discussion, Van suggested Dhani meet with Harmonix President Alex Rigopulos, which was only the first step to bring their one in a million shot dream into what is being released today, The Beatles: Rock Band.
Of course, since Conan is a talented guitar player, he couldn’t help but try the game out for himself. The song selection was one I felt to be questionable. So many popular Beatles songs in the game, and they went with Birthday?
In Oct. 2008, Harmonix revealed a bomb-shell of an announcement. One of the most influential, and most sought after bands of all time was going to be in Rock Band. Not only will the music of The Beatles be made available to gamers around the world, but they were going to be the main focus of the game.
The Beatles: Rock Band is Harmonix’s first title dedicated to a single band. Find out if Beatlemania is alive and well in our review.
Last year’s Guitar Hero: World Tour was a huge success for the Guitar Hero franchise as it was turned into an obvious direction: playing in a band. Even though the title specifically mentions the guitar, music-based games such as Guitar Hero have become more than just two people wailing on their axes. It has now become a social experience that brings people together under one roof to rock the night away. Guitar Hero 5 is the latest iteration of Activision’s popular music game franchise. The question is: Is Guitar Hero 5 the latest and greatest?
The ‘Thank You Mario’ screen is something that every gamer growing up in the 80’s should know. We’ve all seen it way too often in our journey to save Princess Toadstool and we’ve all been angered by its message that the fair princess was in fact, not in the castle you were busting your ass to get to.
Now you can create your very own ‘Thank You Mario’ screens. All you need is this LINK and some imagination. Feel free to share your ‘Thank You Mario’ screens in the comments.
Oh, Nintendo Wii. You’ve made us all make very awkward movements while playing your “family fun” games. I still can’t see someone playing Wario Land: Shake It without snickering like the 27 kidult that I am. Although masturbatory gestures are fun for everyone, this latest Robot Chicken short really takes the awkward movements into a completely new direction.
The game: Humping Robot. The objective: Hump, hump, HUMP! As with most Nintendo Wii games, the fun really starts when you play it’s multiplayer!
