Rock Band 3Cheats: PS3 X360 WII
Rock Band 3 has finally been unveiled and it aims to change the way gamers see the rhythm music genre by introducing a range of new elements that haven't really been seen until now.

Green Day: Rock Band - First LookCheats: PS3 X360 WII
Not long ago it seems the gaming industry was completely over-saturated with rhythm based music games, particularly from the Rock Band and Guitar Hero franchises. Green Day: Rock Band though, marks the release of the first prominent title from the genre of 2010 - and we've kind of missed them!

Though today's youngsters would not consider it fact, The Beatles are one of the world's most popular rock bands ever, and in many peoples opinion, the greatest. Their harmonies and softer music style compared to the likes of Metallica and Van Halen may be just the twist the rhythm games genre needs for a new leading title to emerge.

Rock Revolution
It seems that rhythm games have been taking over the computer and video games market over the past year or two with the likes of Guitar Hero and Rock Band performing well, and now Konami have attempted to cash in on the music games genre with Rock Revolution.
I would like to begin by stating just how predictable a move this is, and to be honest I would go as far to say that attempting to tempt part of the Guitar Hero or Rock Band fan base away was a doomed plan from the very start. You would expect an establishment [ ...More ]
