Three Heads Are Better Than One

All the News That's Fit to Use

-Bioshock 2 is set for a November 3rd release in the US, and an earlier October 30th release in Europe. Get your art-deco swim trunks ready, cuz we're headed back under water.

-The next DLC expansion for GTA IV has been announced, the non-controversially titled "Ballad of Gay Tony". I guess at this point there's not much left GTA can do to offend our sensibilities.

-We've seen some more footage and images of the turntable peripherals for Scratch and DJ Hero. Unlike the Guitar Hero/Rock Band relationship, you won't be able to play either game with one peripheral. The question remains whether Scratch's authentic drum pads or DJ Hero's buttons on the turntable will be more popular.

- Lego Rock Band has a competitor for the family rhythm game with Band Hero, from the Guitar Hero franchise. "Band Hero, on the other hand, is the series' first stab at a family-friendly rhythm game -- featuring "top-40 hits" and an E10+ rating from the ESRB."

-Punch Out has come out swinging, but is this update a little too familiar for your money?
