Destructoid Exclusive: Rock Axe, the guitar controller to end 'em all

Wii News from N4G | Rock Band

Wii - Rock Band - Destructoid Exclusive: Rock Axe, the guitar controller to end 'em all

Dick McVengeance of Destructoid says,

"Let's face it: the Guitar Hero controller is not the ideal item for the game. It'd be nice to hold a full-sized guitar in your hands. We've seen people build custom controllers and put them on eBay, but those were one-off deals, and usually rather expensive."

Chinese Democracy lives on in Rock Band 2

Wii News from N4G | Rock Band 2

Wii - Rock Band 2 - Chinese Democracy lives on in Rock Band 2

Destructoid writes: "The latest out of the NYTimes is that this Monday MTV and Harmonix will announce that a Guns N' Roses track called "Shackler's Revenge" will make its official debut on Rock Band 2. The track is from the perpetually delayed album, Chinese Democracy. The article then goes on to state that Chinese Democracy could come out this fall with Duke Nukem Forever and When Pigs Fly.

Of all the songs that I wish could be in Rock Band 2, I can't say that I imagined a Chinese Democracy single was one of them. The Guns N' Roses library is considerably vast. How about "November Rain" or "You Could be Mine?" There's something special about those two songs specifically. It could be the Slash solo or the Terminator, but what do I know?

Anyway, feel free to speculate like crazy, because if a song from Chinese Democracy is going to hit Rock Band 2, then anything will. I call for the Orgy rendition of "Blue Monday", or even KMFDM's "Hau Ruck." Even better, how about the entire Jimmy Buffet library this time around?"

Sakurai talks about streamlining Brawl's development

Wii News from N4G | Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Wii - Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Sakurai talks about streamlining Brawl's development

As the old saying goes, less is better. The next Official Nintendo Magazine release (out this Friday) has an interview with Super Smash Bros. Brawl developer Masahiro Sakurai, who offered some details on how he went about designing the game. Sakurai noted that he had to cut out several concepts from the development.

For one, SSBB's current roster is just a fraction of the original character list Sakurai had in mind. Due to time constraints however, the SSBB team had to trim the fat on the game design:

Music Studio in The Next Guitar Hero - POD by Line 6 announced

Wii News from N4G | Guitar Hero IV

Wii - Guitar Hero IV - Music Studio in The Next Guitar Hero - POD by Line 6 announced

Alan Tsang of PS3Fanboy says,

"Not to be outdone by the onslaught of Rock Band 2 information leaking out, Activision has officially announced a collaboration with Line 6 to integrate the Line 6 POD into the new Music Studio in Guitar Hero World Tour. The Music Studio is a feature that will allow you "record, edit and share their own rock 'n' roll anthems." No vocals though, sorry! The POD, on the other hand, basically allows the player to change guitar tones using amps, cabs and effects. You can go anywhere from acoustic to heavy metal with this baby."
