Well, it’s finally here. The Rock Band game we’ve been waiting for, Rock Band 2. Harmonix announced a release date of December 18, yes, Today! It will be available in a few different ways: you can pick up strictly the game for $49.99, a standalone guitar and standalone drums will be available as well for $69.99 and $89.99 respectively, and the full band game will be available for $189.99. Harmonix has also given us Wii owners a bit of good news, every song available on the PS3 and 360 version will be available to download….eventually. Sometime after release they are planning on releasing DLC songs weekly, starting with the pack of 20 free songs & 30 songs that are already available to download on the PS3 & 360 versions of the game. No news on how long this will actually take Harmonix to get to us but, they aren’t leaving us out in the cold.

Check out the below video for Hula Wii…
About the only good news I have about this title that it has no US release date as of yet. But beware, it’s coming… when you least expect it.

Remember the multi-colored Wiimote straps that debuted in Japan a few months back? No… me either.
But in any case, folks who live in Australia can currently go buy the set which features straps in colors Green, Blue, Pink, and White.

The straps sell for AU $9.95 ($7)

October 20th is the day you Wii Music fans will want to circle on your calenders, as this is the day that Wii Music hits store shelves.
So, what do you think, will this game have mass market appeal or will it get lost in the shuffle with all the other “music” games (Rock Band 2 & Guitar Hero: World Tour)? Leave a comment below with your guesses.

Supposedly the download is going to be fully compatible with Guitar Hero World Tour, which hits store shelves in October.

Not much for me to add here, so check out the description from the site below.
On Friday, Sept. 19, 2008, eight Wii video games will be featured as the top eight deals in the Amazon.com Gold Box. The identities of each deal will be revealed one at a time.
Here’s how it will work:
The first deal will be the Gold Box Deal of the Day. Its special discounted price will be available all day (or until we run out) on Friday, Sept. 19.
A series of seven Lightning Deals will then kick off at 6:00 AM PST. Each deal will be featured for a limited-time throughout the day until they are sold-out or until the next Lightning Deal begins. Learn more about Gold Box Deals in our Help section.
Start doing some finger stretches, as I’m sure many of you will be clicking a lot tomorrow.

Yep, you read the title right.
“Wii Fit Family” will begin airing next week on Nick at Nite. The show will have families going toe-to-toe in various zany Wii Fit challenges.
Not only is this a horrid idea, it’s also hosted by Kristi Yamaguchi.
—
On another note, if their going to have a show about video games, I demand they bring back Nick Arcade, but only if it’s hosted by Phil Moore.

It’s been confirmed that some tracks from the Jimi Hendrix estate will be making their way onto Guitar Hero: World Tour.
Kotaku has a good quote from Janie Hendrix, the overseer of everything Hendrix…
Guitar Hero really was on the ball and and they were biting at the bit to get this out this year, so, we just accommodated them…Jimi was a kid at heart — he definitely would have played these games
Some of the songs that have been confirmed are Purple Haze, Foxy Lady & Little Wing.
