[Rock Block] October 13th
Who cares... everyone's playing Uncharted 2!
Published: October 13, 2009
With all these fancy pants music games offering new songs almost every week, we figured we'd come up with a quick, easy (and lazy) way to consolidate all the news of what you'll find on the PlayStation Store and in the games' own stores (if they have 'em) each and every Thursday. Handy? Yeah, we know, but that's just the way we roll.
Bear in mind that this includes both the obvious titles like the various Rock Bands and Guitar Heroes out there, but can also include straight karaoke affairs Sony's own SingStar titles or the Karaoke Revolution games too, not to mention stuff from other publishers that fit neatly into this category. No, there won't always be stuff for those other games, but at the very least, the tidal wave of DLC can be easily managed right here. Bear in mind that in many of the bigger games, the DLC will work for both the newest and previous entries into the series, so just because you don't have the latest and greatest versions, we'll still be able to keep you up to date.
Yes, we love you too.

No new Rock Band 2 tracks right this second, BUT we do have some LEGO Rock Band news... We already knew that Iggy Pop was going to be a playable (Lego?) character in LRB, but they have also announced David Bowie as well! I mean, I for one am completely blown away by the absolute randomness of the choice of these two. Can we get a Lego Jimi Hendrix next? How about Lego Pink Floyd?
Who among us is not excited to get to see a Lego David Bowie rock out to "Let's Dance?"
