Keytar Confirmed for Guitar Hero...Well sort of. (Photo/Video Proof)
Demios | 8:42 AM on 07.12.2008 4 comments


While doing my daily investigations into finding new tidbits of information with Guitar Hero or Rock Band i came across this interesting video from Amplifier/Effects Pedal makers Line 6's website...

Line 6 POD pedal walkthrough

Now while Liam Lynch is awesome i couldn't help but notice the nice shots of the studio mode.

I knew the studio mode would be pretty awesome, but there's seems like some serious options and choice. Namely KEYTAR! They could have released this as a entirely separate game entirely and i would have gladly paid for it.

Now im just hoping we get this Europe-side not too long after my American brethren.

Have a drool over these:

Demios | 7:27 AM on 07.09.2008 25 comments

Despite the obvious news that PINK FLOYD / AC/DC have entered the music-based games, there are some solid tracks included in the sequel. Also nice to see that Harmonix have tapped into the previous games too and reintroduced some songs into the multi-instrument platform. (Possum Kingdom/Cowboys from Hell etc...)

Tracks i cant wait to play:

White Wedding
TNT
Man In The Box
Judith
Black Betty
Hots For Teacher
Cowboys From Hell
Comfortably Numb

Oh shit, just forgot SULTANS OF SWING!!!!! Fucking WIN Harmonix!

The thing that worries me about this list is the exclusion of certain tracks that were confirmed (namely Elvis Costello track) so as much as i want this to be true, it could still be a well crafted fake...

Worst News Ever...(NVGR)
Demios | 5:51 AM on 06.10.2008 16 comments


Just heard on the radio that the Prince concert i was due to go to this Monday has been canceled. Jesus im depressed. This guy tours Europe rarely enough and never comes to Ireland and now because the promoters didn't feel like they made enough money off people and ticket prices (65-155 euro / 100-245 dollars) they went ahead and pulled out!

Now while im pissed off and had a nice few days booked off with my ladyfriend too i cant help but feel sorry for the people who had booked flights/hotels etc... coming from Europe, seeing as this is his ONLY European date this year. Those people must be rightly pissed at his royal-badness.

Now im off to have a drink, i need it after hearing this shit...

Who wants to help me out...
Demios | 8:06 AM on 05.27.2008 4 comments


With the recent announcement that Hideo Kojima will be be signing copies of the new MGS game in both NYC and London on (11th June and 2nd June respectably).

Now i am a avid autograph collector, granted its usually based within the confines of music and film but i would literally KILL to have this guys sig in my collection. I mentioned my intention to pay handsomely for his autograph in a couple of other blogs already but i said id just throw out the idea again and see is there any takers. I realize that i am probably not the only one who would gladly offer their family for a chance to get one of these but i figured its worth asking anyway seeing as Destructoid's got a massive membership based in both areas and seeing as im living here:



Thanks in advance.


(Cheers to Anus McPhanus if he can pull it off in London either way! You = Win just for trying man! Flights to London were insanely expensive anyway.)
