This goes to show you, not even the best of the best can always expert everything! Rush sits down and plays Rock Band on the “expert” setting on the song Tom Sawyer and manages a less than stellar performance.

Mega Man 9 – Actual Teaser FootageMega Man 9 – Actual Teaser Footage
Here is the first teaser footage, badly encoded with tons of words overlying the action but you get the idea. It’s total 8-bit retro feel with classic NES style sound effects. This instantly rockets you back to your youth in front of the cartridged based square box of an entertainment system.
Is this going to have lasting appeal? Will development shops open up to re-create the retro style gaming platforms on new hardware? This WiiWare title should do well considering it is new content created using the old virtual console NES look and feel. If gamers are eating up classics this should do extremely well.
Or, is this effort a total waste of time. Mega Man fans should fall in love as Mega Man 9 is like going 80’s style..
Game Time – Solid Steve vs. The M-Rated GamesGame Time – Solid Steve vs. The M-Rated Games
We’re lucky to have a lot of talented friends in the game industry and today we’re lucky to be able to share a new video show from Jerry Bonner. I asked if we could show off their new show, Game Time, and get a little audience response from the show and its content. Personally, I think it makes a great addition to the game industry and New Media in general, teaches something to people while entertaining at the same time.
So, here is the pilot, Episode 1: Solid Steve vs. The M-Rated Games:

Rock Band 2 Songs ExpandedRock Band 2 Songs Expanded
Game Informer magazine is showing off a few more songs for Rock Band 2. The song list includes yet more great variety in their set list, it’s also said that you’ll be able to pose your characters and upload them to RockBand.com to show them off. Not sure that’s a killer feature, but additional features are always good for new game releases.
Anyway, latest song information:
- Bon Jovi – “Livin’ on a Prayer”
- Steve Miller Band – “Rock ‘n Me”
- Rage Against the Machine – “Testify”
- Billy Idol – “White Wedding Pt. 1”
- Joan Jett – “Bad Reputation”
- Avenged Sevenfold – “Almost Easy”
- Social Distortion – “I Was Wrong”
It wouldn’t be Rock Band without Bon Jovi, apparently, and the inclusion of Testify would make it a rocking good time. We get to flashback to White Wedding as well and you have to respect a game that includes Steve Miller Band!
Recently we received a few tidbits of their song list, now this! Soon we’ll have the entire confirmed list of songs (barring the rumors which have been very accurate so far). What songs would you love to see in a Rock Band game?
