PS3 - Rock Band - Rob Thomas to Rock Band: "Call me" Rob Thomas admits he's not much of a gamer. And given his commitments to his burgeoning solo career and his duties as frontman of Matchbox 20, that's not surprising.

That said, he does own an Xbox 360 and a PlayStation 3. And, as the father of an 11 year old boy, he's been known to pick up a controller from time to time. The game of choice in the Thomas house? "Rock Band"

"There's something great about watching [my son] playing a Pixies song with me on 'Rock Band'," he says. "[The game] puts a kid in a world they're familiar with, but unbeknownst to them, they're being exposed to this great assortment of music."

PS3 - Rock Band - GameStop starts huge Guitar Hero, Rock Band sale Ben Kuchera of ArsTechnica writes:

"The great thing about Guitar Hero and Rock Band packages is that they come in OMG-XBOX-HUGE packages. Why is that a great thing? Because boxes that big cost retailers money to store, which means that, with new rhythm games coming by the end of the year, it costs more to keep them around than it does to sell them at a huge discount. That means it's time to blast out existing inventory at OMG-GAMEBOY-MICRO prices. Let's take a look at what you can grab.

You have the name of the game, the system, the old price, and the price that the bundle is on sale for. If you don't have the game, or if you just need to pick up a few instruments to have as extras, this is a great time to do so."

Randall thinks that games like Rock Band may eventually abandon consoles altogether, instead taking the form of instruments with built-in music.

PS3 - Rock Band - MTV: No Michael Jackson Track Pack Planned Any hope Rock Band owners had about playing some of Michael Jackson's greatest hits will have to put on hold for the time being.

"There's nothing in the works right now on that," said Guthrie.

Key words being "right now," of course.

PS3 - Rock Band - AMP ENERGY Reveals Judges For $100,000 Rock Off NextGen Player writes:

"The semi-finals are over, the finals date is set, and on this coming Saturday four Rockband "bands" will compete for the ultimate glory of walking away $100,000 richer.

One of my colleagues commented that real Battle of the Band competitions rarely (if ever) give out so much prize money for the winning band. I guess in our modern gaming-obsessed society it pays to play plastic instrument over, you know, the real thing."

PS3 - Rock Band - Rumored PS Store Content for 06/18/2009 PlayStation LifeStyle writes:

"This week is lacking on confirmed content, but there is a nice amount of content being rumored to make up for it. The original PSOne Classic Metal Gear Solid sneaks onto this week's update, and it is rumored that Solid Snake will be bringing another PSOne classic along with him. The update will be extra heavy if Fat Princess shows up. Look for your normal round up of DLC, and the possibility of a couple demos."
