So, while Guitar Hero 5 continues to reign at the top of the XBOX 360, PS2, PS3 & Nintendo Wii charts and has been acclaimed by many newspapers and review magazine as the “best Guitar Hero game for your money”, many of us however, still haven’t got around to buying this outstanding game with unlimited songs to choose from!

I introduce to you; JamLegend…JamLegend is an addictive browser based ‘Guitar Hero’ style game ideal for those borings days at school or work, or those rainy days when you can’t be bothered to go out but maybe your younger/older sister/brother is hogging the console.

Once you sign up to JamLegend, don’t miss up because you join the worldwide league and all games are tracked, so the better you are, the more chance you have of being at the top of the leaderboard!

Not to mention, you can still have the usual features as per Guitar Hero like multiplayer rockfest battles and so forth.

Give it ago today; JamLegend.com… oh and did I mention it is completely free?!?

“I don’t know that I would have wanted it either,” Jon Bon Jovi told the BBC.

“To hear someone else’s voice coming out of a cartoon version of me? I don’t know. It sounds a little forced.”

Bearing in mind Kurt Cobain, when he was alive, never liked the corporate side of the music industry, knowing that a company was making money off of his back, I’m sure he’d be turning in his grave today… or would he?

I’m sure having Kurt Cobain, although the great grunge rock God he was, does having him as an ‘cheat’ code to lip sync any bands songs really a major purchasing decision when people buy GH5? We think probably not. What do you think?

Publisher of Beatles Rock Band, Electronic Arts (EA) has been beaten to the number 1 spot in the gaming charts by non other than the direct competitor, Activision Blizzard’s Guitar Hero 5 (as of 19th September 2009).

In fact, not only has it been beaten to the number 1 gaming chart spot, but Beatles Rock Band didn’t even come 2nd… not even 3rd. It came 4th!

Don’t get us wrong, this isn’t a bashing of B:RB, but it is interesting because we do think it is a good game and with having the Beatles brand behind the game, bearing in mind how many records these guys have sold over the decades, where did Electronic Arts go so wrong?

Well, that isn’t hard to answer really, when you look close enough. It is nothing to do with the quality of the new Rock Band game, but it has everything to do with timing.

According to a HMV spokesperson, chart position was mostly effected to a ‘mid-week release’. It has to be something very, very special to enter the charts mid-week and be able to come on top because you have 1/2 the time to get twice as many sales in.

Wow, what was EA thinking? I think this is what you call a EA publishing #failwhale.
