However, this rendition doesn\\\\\\\'t come with a hard drive and will sell for 19,800 yen, or about $195 Canadian. aol.ca | Toggle Comments (0) |

Smashing Guitar Hero
|
|
|
Another big musical name has climbed aboard the Guitar Hero tour bus. Smashing Pumpkin\'s frontman Billy Corgan will appear in Guitar Hero World Tour. Corgan joins fellow musical soldiers Jimi Hendrix and Ozzy Osbourne as in-game characters. Activision has also revealed that the Pumpkins\' hit song \"Today\" will be a playable track, and that\'s not all. The band will debut their new single “G.L.O.W.” exclusively in the game. This is the first time a band has recorded a new song exclusively for Guitar Hero that will also be released to the general public afterwards. Rock Band had a similar arrangement with Motley Crue’s Saints Of Los Angeles single, selling more than 47,000 copies through the Xbox 360 version alone, compared to the 10,000 on iTunes. This is a very cool trend. Smashing Pumpkins | Toggle Comments (0) |

Competitive Edge

|
The PlayStation 3 edition of Mirror\'s Edge is going to have an edge over the versions. Electronic Arts and Sony have signed a deal to provide downloadable content exclusively for the PlayStation 3 version of Mirror\'s Edge. As to what kind of content, that\'s still a secret. Mirror\'s Edge is a first person action game that focuses on climbing and death-defying jumps and was one of the freshest, and dizzying, games at E3. And I still say that the main character, Faith, looks a lot like Donna. Mirror's Edge | Toggle Comments (0) |
