Hello, long time since I wrote something here, but I tought this might be interesting for those who always wanted prog rock in video games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero, especialy the first one. Harmonix has confirmed some songs for the secuel: Rock Band Opening Act on Gamespot and this is the first oficial songs:

  • Dream Theater – “Panic Attack” Star:
  • System of a Down – “Chop Suey”
  • Foo Fighters – “Everlong”
  • The Muffs – “Kids in America”
  • Red Hot Chili Peppers – “Give it Away”
  • Motorhead – “Ace of Spades”
  • Cheap Trick – “Hello There”
  • Elvis Costello – “Pump it Up”
  • Journey – “Anyway You Want It”
  • The Who – “Pinball Wizard”
And another songs that still hasnt been confirmed oficialy:

  • “Man in the Box” – Alice in Chains
  • “We Got The Beat” – The Go Go
  • “American Woman” – The Guess Who? (or Lenny Kravitz)
  • “White Wedding” – Billy Idol
  • “Aqua Lung” – Jethro Tull StarStarStar
  • “Bad Reputation” – Joan Jett
  • “One Step Closer” – Linkin Park
  • “Peace Sells” – Megadeth
  • “You Oughta Know” – Alanis Morissette
  • “Testify” – Rage Against The Machine
  • “Spoonman” – Soundgarden
Hope there will be more prog on the future, some PT songs will be nice and of course, more prog bands even if they only put the most popular songs on the games, but still would be awesome Big%20smile

How about this for an idea for the Guitar Hero/Rock Band games:

Have them by GENRE

Guitar Hero: Metal
Guitar Hero: Classic Rock
Guitar Hero: Progressive
Guitar Hero: Alternative

Makes a lot of sense to me!

I had started Assassins Creed a long time ago but never finished it. I've been playing that for the past week or so and I'm almost finished the game.

I hear that once you've played like a quarter of the game you've played the whole thing.

Replaying Shadow of the Colossus for the third time.

Pretty much. It's very repetitive. But the scenery is nice and the combat system is fun. Plus I paid 60 dollars for it, I definetly intend to finish it! LOL

Has anyone been following the news coming out of E3?

There's been a massive announcement from SquareEnix, Final Fantasy XIII is going to be released on the Xbox 360! Big%20smile

E3 has been a huge letdown this year. Absolutely nothing interesting to me. Nintendo has a cool thing with 1:1 control, but they didn't show any games interesting enough for me to be excited for it. RE5 looks like RE4-2 which just means more action and less suvival horror. Oh well, games are going downhill for now.

Owow Mike, thanks so much for posting this link! I checked out the demo a few days ago and it blew me away - what an original game! I'm definitely going to buy it after having played it with "Peaches In Regalia" and "Salisbury". What a ride!

Got any favorite tracks that you play frequently?

I was playing this game for quite a few hours today. It just doesn't get better.

MMOs on consoles are normally complete failures, so I'm not all that interested in it, I do find it odd though that 2 of the very few big announcements from Sony were for MMOs, the other being a DC comics based City of Heroes/Villains rip off being developed by SoE who are best known for destroying Star Wars Galaxies.

I've been playing Elder Scrolls: Oblivion as well. The game never gets old or ends and the open ended gameplay is excellent.
