Game Informer reveals Guitar Hero IV drum kit [update] {Nintendo Wii Fanboy}
May 14th 2008 8:31PM Oh come on. They had to trim some fat off the game to make it work on the Wii, just like with the PS2, because of the lack of hard drive. Other than that it's pretty much the same. No weekly DLC, but again... NO HARD DRIVE. And anyways they're releasing a disc with a variety of DLC at launch! That's unprecedented, AND for cheaper than it would cost to buy those songs on 360/PS3!
I have no sympathy for your hollow complaints. If anything I'm jealous that I didn't buy the Wii version instead. Plus you got wireless guitars with tilt sensors that actually work!

May 14th 2008 8:25PM Agreed, these are a good step above RB drums (but still no hi-hat pedal!!!).
I hate saying that too, because when a big heartless corporation just copies and one-ups a smaller company that's doing some actual innovation, and proceeds to make billions (you know they will), it's just a sad thing.

May 14th 2008 8:21PM TheCoats... you do know that you don't HAVE to buy the Rock Band bundle, right? You can just buy the game and a guitar.
And I don't get how you rant about Rock Band and how you'll never buy it because you ONLY want guitar, then you say "I would be alot more happier buying guitar hero w/ all of its new instruments." wtf?
PixelJunk Eden: new screenshots {PS3 Fanboy}
May 14th 2008 4:46PM Well, on the surface they may seem that way. The art style is definitely the same, but I've never encountered flash games that look this good and have such fun and deep gameplay.
They'd be better compared to games like Peggle (which I also love), but these have more content and are less than half the price.

May 14th 2008 4:40PM It does sound and look a bit like Locoroco. I really like PJM a lot, and I thought PJR was pretty cool even though it didn't hook me quite as much. PJR reminds me of those slot car races that were popular in the 80's, so it's kinda nostalgic.
Game Informer snags first pic of Guitar Hero IV drums {Joystiq}
May 14th 2008 3:39PM I agree with the Ocular Fail comment. Too funny. But also, playing with ALL limbs makes you feel like a drummer... They definitely 1-upped Rock Band's drums by using cymbals and arranging in a slightly better layout, but STILL NO FREAKING HI-HAT PEDAL! wtf?

May 14th 2008 3:29PM "that's the only reason why I snagged it for PS3 over PC"
Oh, I forgot to mention there's 2 reasons... that one and the fact that I can use user-generated mods. Otherwise, I wouldn't have even considered UT3 for console. Shooters are all about user-generated content. Which reminds me, I gotta check out Gary's mod.

May 14th 2008 3:26PM Bullshit, name123, I'm long time fan of the Epic and their UT franchise. Having played a handful of current shooters, I keep going back to UT3 inexplicably. I can find some flaws, sure, and I wish it had a rank system like Warhawk or just something to show for all your killing, but it's just damn fun anyways.
Plus, in these days where Consoles are more like PC's than ever, I love the fact that Epic gives you the option of using a keyboard and mouse. I wish all games had those options. I'm just spoiled from being a long time PC gamer I guess, where I've always had the choice of K&M, gamepad, joystick, and wheel for all the games I play. Anyways, that's the only reason why I snagged it for PS3 over PC (my PC is having problems with video).
I have yet to play Gears of War, but I'm sure it's great (how could Epic make a bad game?), and I will snag it as soon as I drop some cash for a new vid card.
NSFW: Sony's Euro PS3 thumb for a penis ad {Joystiq}
May 14th 2008 3:11PM The US ads were pretty good actually. The Wii has had some decent ads here too, but the 360 seems to have had the worst and most scarce (again, in the US only). I guess that proves that advertising doesn't really work beyond just alerting consumers to what exists for purchase.
But I agree, advertisements in general do suck. I must say that I do like Europe's non-protestant ads containing nudity :) Just so long as it's not male nudity. I remember being overseas and flipping through a hardware store ad just out of sheer boredom, then seeing a totally naked woman showering. It was advertising shower heads or something... in all honestly I just remember thinking "boobies!"
