Morning Discussion

"What's this? A new chatty? Oh, Faylor, you're so good to us!"

Now, now, no need to thank me. I'm just doing my job.

So, ever since that Guitar Hero World Tour interview yesterday, I've had David Bowie and Queen's "Under Pressure" stuck in my head. Of course, it's one of the few songs that Neversoft couldn't actually get for the game. Stupid missing master tracks.

Speaking of games, I do hope you've managed to check out Peggle 2 for the latest in ball-bouncing awesomeness. There's a free demo, you know!

And I do hope everyone out there is enjoying the sudden flood of quality PC games. The Witcher Enhanced Edition just showed up at my place, Warhammer Online officially launches tomorrow, Crysis Warhead is at retailers, and I hear S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky has finally made it out as well. Now I just need the time to play them all.

    Looks like the holiday game season is starting a bit early this year.

      My son's bday is coming in a week. I tried to talk my wife into RB2... She didn't fall for it. She actually got him stuff HE wanted instead.

      WTF.

        He wants RB2. He just doesn't know that he wants it yet.

          Do the GH3 guitars work with RB 1/2?

            It does on 360, yeah. That's what I use.

            On the 360 yes they do. I think they are being made to work sometime soon with the ps3 also finally.

              So what's my best option if I don't have any RB game and I want all the songs?

                Rent RB 1 load it and pay the 400 MS points to export them. Then buy RB 2 and you will have all the songs but 3 from RB 1 (3 songs didn't get licensed for transfer) playable.

        Damn, I'm sorry to hear that. How long has your son been diagnosed with stupidity?

            My 6 year old daughter likes to try the drums even though she has no idea what she is doing on them.

            6 years is the perfect starting age. How else is he going to become a rock star?

                Please note my 56 year old dad plays guitar on expert in it. He can't drum past medium though but I do think he beat GGAHD sucker.
