This is a video review of Guitar Hero on Tour by IGN. They got to play with it three weeks before it officially launches. IGN hire me please!

Judging by the video, Guitar Hero on Tour’s gameplay is exceptionally good. Plus, it is compatible with the old DS version as well.

I know I’ve written about Guitar Hero on Tour before but I think this game is worth every space it occupies. I’ve never been this excited for a game launch since Super Mario 3 and World of Warcraft.

Are you getting Guitar Hero on Tour for the DS?

Many-Worlds Interpretation is an interpretation of quantum mechanics. Basically, in layman’s terms it means that there are an infinite number of universes and that everything that could possibly happen in our universe (but doesn’t) does happen in another.

In short, just like Adidas’ slogan says, “Everything’s possible.”

Here’s a video that can illustrate Many-Worlds Interpretation. This video uses a Kaizo Mario World superimposed 134 times on top of another.

Even if you had an epic failure, stand up and try again, you might not have 100 lives, but the possibilities are endless.

Activision, the maker of Guitar Hero Franchise, has announced that it like be bringing downloadable content to the Wii version of Guitar Hero World Tour. DLC is unheard of when it comes to the Wii. The reason for this is Wii’s lack of a hard drive.

The Wii only has 512MB of internal storage for saving game content. This is not sufficient for downloadable contents. It does support SD cards for storage but games and other contents could not be played from it.

Ever wonder how it would be like to rule your own kingdom and live like a king? Well, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King lets you feel how it’s like. It’s not your typical Final Fantasy game and is available for Wiiware.

Unlike the other Final Fantasy titles, My Life as a King is not a RPG instead it’s a management/city-building game. Players are the kings in the game and everyone is under his rule. Rewards, gold or resources, depends on who you choose to pick to do certain tasks.

Konami revolutionized the music gaming genre during the late 90’s by giving us Drummania, Guitarfreaks and even Dance Dance Revolution. So it has every right to launch its own Rock Band/Guitar Hero-like title. Right?

Konami says its time for a revolution but I don’t see anything revolutionary about its Rock Revolution. The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions are much like Rock Band and Guitar Hero except that the drum peripheral has six buttons against Rock Band’s four.

With Rock Revolution’s release, it will bring another bunch of peripherals in the market. Why don’t hey just make every peripheral compatible?

Would you trust a machine to tell you how healthy you are? Wii Fit is being billed as the exercise game for the whole family. Yet issues arise about Wii Fit’s capability to accurately calculate a young child’s Body Mass index (BMI).

Obesity experts in the UK have condemned Nintendo after Wii Fit called a perfectly fit 10 year old girl kid fat. This made the kid’s dad angry.

“She is a perfectly healthy, 4ft 9in tall 10-year-old who swims, dances and weighs only six stone (84 lbs). She is solidly built but not fat. She was devastated to be called fat and we had to work hard to convince her she isn’t.”

This must be mod week. After writing about that great NES controller/coffee table project, this time I’m bringing you a NES System built into its own game cart.

When was the last time you had a bright idea and wished you did it? Well Kyle Downes of Ultra Awesome ran out of storage space in his room. At the beginning there was clutter. A true gamer, his floor is littered with consoles, game carts and boxes.

His solution: Build a coffee table slash gigantic NES controller to store his stuff. The NES controller has been a project of many mod but what sets this mod from the rest is that it is immaculately built that you might think a professional carpenter made it.

Some fanboys do have a lot of time in their hands. This Wiimote graffiti is found at cross-walk in Darien, Illinois.

Nibcrom writes in his site:

I thought the Wii Remote and the nunchuk might have been just chalk, but they are both spray-painted on the street.
