Per the folks at the Christian TV talk show Club36, Pokemon characters are actually “Oriental demons” who have come for your children. Also, some game called Guitar Hero is “addictive,” and something called Minecraft is distracting kids from reading their bibles. Be warned.
Yes, it's true. Activision Blizzard is no longer making Guitar Hero games. I know you're all torn up inside, so let this song console you. RIP, Guitar Hero.

Rock Band has blood on its hands.
Annie Leung, a 25-year-old from California, achieved the highest score on Guitar Hero 3 by a female gamer when she racked up 789,349 points playing “Through the Fire and Flames” by Dragonforce on the expert setting. That means Leung played more than 500 consecutive notes without any error on one of the game's most difficult songs.
Some genius pyromaniac modded his Guitar Hero so that it controls the valves to a burning propane tank, creating a sort of musical fire fountain set to AC/DC. If menorahs could do this, Hanukkah would be much more popular.
If this dude ever wants to get laid he should come up with two better talents than playing guitar hero and doing this spin move but still, it's pretty funny and worth the watch. (via theinternettoday.net)

Somebody whipped up an 8-bit version of Guitar Hero that fittingly debuts with Guns N' Roses and Michael Jackson songs. It runs in an NES emulator and it's called D-Bag Hero, or something.
The sad thing is that I probably would have spent hours playing this in the '80s. They were simpler times.
Tech Buzz A heart-shaped guitar for Guitar Hero. It's marketed pretty specifically towards girls, but you know this is what Prince would use if he ever played Guitar Hero.

Rock out on a button-coordinated vag! If you're looking to make your 13-year-old, shaky-voiced cousin feel especially awkward this holiday, nothing makes a better gift. (If only it were real!)
An amazing, live recreation of Guitar Hero, performed on a bike. Words don't quite capture this — the amount of work someone put in to do this is incredible. Fan film or another viral ad? Update: As you suspected, it's an advertisement for Guitar Hero World Tour.
Kobe, ARod, Tony Hawk and Michael Phelps rock out Risky Business-style in an ad for the new Guitar Hero. Kobe steals the show, per usual.

The song will be available for download in a “bundle” with two old Pumpkins tunes on the game, where Corgan will also appear as an avatar. May we suggest he face his manga?
