Guitar Hero: World Tour gets more expensive deluxe edition bundle


If spending $100 on a new plastic instrument and Guitar Hero: World Tour isn't enough, Red Octane is offering up a deluxe bundle for those that need to lose that extra cash, but don't want to go in for the entire band kit. For $109.99, fans will get a custom guitar bag for their new plastic axe, as well as a Guitar Hero keychain. We're not sure if that's worthy of an extra $10, but for those of you who are really worried about scuffing up their new Guitar Hero guitar, it's an option.

These are the on-disc tracks you'll be jamming to in World Tour


Okay, folks. This is it. The huge list of confirmed tracks that will be packed into your disc of Guitar Hero: World Tour. We won't waste any more time dancing around it. Head past the break for the big list 'o tracks.

Band on the Run takes a World Tour


For those of you who'd like to see The Beatles make their way into some music game, you might be able to have a nice consolation prize. Guitar Hero: World Tour has just been confirmed to include a plethora of new tracks, one of which is Paul McCartney & Wings' "Band on the Run." Whether you're a fan of the man's post-Beatles efforts or not, you have to admit it's a catchy tune.

The full list of confirmed tracks is after the break.

Sting to shred in Guitar Hero: World Tour


Along with Jimi Hendrix and Ozzy (and other notable classic rockers), Sting will have his likeness featured in the upcoming Guitar Hero: World Tour. The original story over at USAToday.com has since been pulled (all we've got is this image to go on), so we can't find exact details as to what capacity he'll be featured (Will he be playing The Police songs? His own tracks?), but the screen above tells us the man will be rocking the bass.

Any Sting fans out there? Like his old stuff, or his new stuff? Or both?

Activision Blizzard still 'reviewing' fate of Ghostbusters


For those of us who enjoyed unprecedented levels of excitement at the announcement of a Ghostbusters game, it's been a rocky ride ever since. First, we heard it was canceled, then the Terminal Reality boss said it would be published. Now, we just don't know what's up.

The recently-merged Activision Blizzard doesn't know what's up, either. That's why they're still considering what to do with the game and "reviewing its options regarding titles that it will not be publishing." This means that should the company decide not to publish the game, it could be sold off to another publisher. Either way, we just want to see it release.

We ain't afraid of no ghosts, just cancellation

If there's something strange in your neighborhood, who ya gonna call? Ghostbust ... er ... well, maybe not.

With the Blizzavision merger, a few Sierra titles (like Ghostbusters) may get the axe. When it comes to efficiency, Sierra has been deemed a "non-strategic business unit," which (we're sure we don't have to tell you) is not good. While the recently merged publisher reports that Sierra franchises like Crash Bandicoot and Spyro will be safe, the fate of Ghostbusters is still up in the air.

Offering a bit of reassurance, Sierra claims, "[Ghostbusters] is not cancelled and will not be cancelled." Some words from the people with the money, though, would probably make us feel better.

Rock 'N Roll Racing artwork is as awesome as the game


Hey, you know what game should be on the Virtual Console? Rock 'N Roll Racing! This blogger can't tell you the amount of time he spent on that game. It's one of the most under-appreciated gems on the SNES. Now, through this eBay auction, a little piece of the game's history is up for grabs. The pictured art covers all of the characters in the game, done by game artist G C Almond.

With Rock 'N Roll Racing on the brain, we're wondering why the game hasn't been released to the Virtual Console yet. Actually, why hasn't it been a spotlight of Virtually Overlooked? We've got too many questions that need answering!
