Over the past week and a half, I have spent more than my fair share of time playing THQ’s Saints Row II. Let me tell you, at first I was resistant to this blatant GTA ripoff, however, I gve it its day in court and I am glad that I did. It was a fun game.

Mad Catz Fender Precision Bass for Rock Band

Mad Catz have gone and done something interesting, they have made a bass guitar for Rock Band and a good looking one at that. It uses a split strum bar which will let you strum faster than with a standard strum bar and comes with a very reasonable price tag. Unfortunately, PS3 and Wii owners aren’t getting any love with this model; it is an X-360 only affair.

Guitar Hero Is Only A Belt Clip Away

If you love playing Rock Band with traffic, the Guitar Hero Belt Clip might be just the thing for you.
From the site:
You don’t need a game console to be a guitar hero, because now you can get all the face-melting hot lick action of the original video game smash in a mini guitar that clips to your belt! Just grab this official carabiner and get shredding! Features an LCD screen and 5 push buttons (plus a whammy bar button!), with 12 songs from the Guitar Hero library. The guitar neck even folds down for extra portability.
