Rock Band gets an international flair today, as this week’s bevy of downloadable tunes brings two songs from Spanish-language bands that, yes, feature Spanish lyrics.

As if the world needed any more proof that the average American consumer is a greedy troglodyte, the sad news over the weekend about the trampling death at a Wal-Mart in New York only confirms it. For the past couple holiday seasons, I’ve turned on the news the day after Thanksgiving and watched with embarrasment the all too familiar footage of hordes of shoppers storming and shoving ......

As a Rock Band and figural toy devotee, I was intrigued by the idea that my customizable Rock Band character could be made into a three dimensional figure though an on-demand process, via Harmonix and the Rock Band website. Made-to-order figures surely represent a whole new frontier in customizable, creative toys. What could be cooler than a mini-replica of myself staring at me while I sleep? I me...... [Show More]

(It’s been a good, but long hard week - here’s something fun to close out the week and kick off the weekend)
I remember first hearing about Guitar Hero back in 2003 (I believe). A friend of mine was visiting his friend who happened to be a video game reviewer and had an early edition of the game. He said it was the most fun he’d had in a long time… and I...... [Show More]
Okay, there are other songs apart from “Tem pted” ; available on Rock Band this week but they don’t matter. I discovered “Tem pted” ; after playing GTA Vice City and spent several days in high school where I listened to that song and that song only. It topped my iTunes play count until my old Dell decided to poop out on me. So, yeah, you know what I’m getting from my ...... [Show More]

First, I need to convert the HTML list
of Rock Band songs into a machine readable format. That means doing a little screen
scraping. Originally, I used Beautiful
Soup but I found that UnicodeDammit got
confused on names like Blue Öyster Cult and Mötley Crüe. I’m guessing it’s broken
because IronPython doesn’t have non-unicode strings.
Instead, I used SgmlReader to provid...... [Show More]
Shortly after I joined the VS Languages team, we had a morale event that included
a Rock Band tournament. I didn’t play that
day in the tournament since I had never played before, but I was hooked just the same.
I got Rock Band for my birthday, Rock
Band 2 shortly after it came out in September and I’m hoping to get the AC/DC
Track Pack for Christmas.
There are lots of son...... [Show More]
Harmonix and MTV Games are all about consumers needing only one set of plastic instruments, unless of course you’re referring to the Chester household, in which case I hear they stockpile their peripherals by the dozen in a say of the art vault.
To make good on the words of encouragement, Harmonix released a patch this day for the PlayStation 3 version of Rock Band 2 which repairs a sl...... [Show More]
Waar een tijdje geleden er nog hevige discussies tussen Harmonix en Neversoft waren, heeft Harmonix de eerste stap gezet naar een betere onderlinge verhouding tussen beide ontwikkelaars. De ontwikkelaar van Rock Band en Rock Band 2 heeft namelijk voor de Playstation 3 een update online gezet die ervoor zorgt dat je in de game buiten de standaard instrumenten ook die van Guitar Hero: ......
