Since the death of the King of Pop, we've been getting Michael Jackson news left and right - the gaming scene isn't an exception. Apart from the fact that MJ loved games and was a sucker for Mortal Kombat, MJ is gonna get one last hurrah at gaming, even in death. His own MJJ Productions confirm - a new Michael Jackson game is in the works.

Is there any cause for concern that the final set list for The Beatles: Rock Band (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii) will be compromised by Michael Jackson's death? How did MJ get into the Rock Band title for The Beatles, in the first place? If in case you still weren't aware, the King of Pop only happened to own the music catalogue of The Beatles via ATV, at least until his untimely demise.

Additional tracks have been announced for Lego Rock Band (PS3, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, and DS), and fittingly, following the demise of the King of Pop, they're making room for a Jackson 5 track, so said Traveller's Tales boss Jonathan Smith.

It was another frenzied week for the Xbox 360 blog, with beat-'em-up fighters and persistent zombies taking the lead in news items. Yep, am talking about Street Fighter IV and Left 4 Dead, parts 1 and 2. On the Industry side of things, Microsoft's been relatively quiet... Oh yeah, I hear they're being sued yet again. This time for patent infringement on the XBL.

Since the death of Michael Jackson last week, the internet has come alive with tributes for the late King of Pop. One of them is this mod of Left 4 Dead (PC, Xbox 360), where the game music is replaced by some of Jacko's most popular songs. And when it comes to the Left 4 Dead, it doesn't get any cooler than Thriller.

Paul Theroux of the Telegraph could not forget the conversation that he had with Michael Jackson. Now that MJ has gone to that big Neverland in the sky, the journalist takes us back to the old interview, which revealed that eccentric as he was, Michael Jackson too was a sucker for video games. Not just any video game too - MJ loved MK.

Like a scene straight off Michael Jackson's Thriller music video. Only, they're in a place that looks like Vegas, and the zombies are up to a whopping 7,000 in number. And, Michael Jackson isn't here. This is what we're seeing today with this new Dead Rising 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) E3 2009 trailer from Capcom.

You're probably already sick of hearing all those rumored set lists for Guitar Hero: World Tour. Inch by inch (song by song, rather), Activision revealed some artists contributing their own remastered tracks for the game, but now, the full blown 86-track list has finally been announced! In the process, World Tour has even set a new video game record of having the most songs on-disc. Read more to check out the full list of songs included in the game.

More Guitar Hero: World Tour (Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii) tracks have been spotted on Stuff magazine, further adding to the list of confirmed songs available for the game. Hit the full article for a list of the new tracks.

Hot off the heels of the Microsoft Xbox 360 price cut, EA Sports launched its much-anticipated Madden NFL 08 (available on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PSP, DS, PC). The Madden franchise has been the biggest-selling sports series in North America for more than a decade now, grounding its popularity on exclusive licensing, deep features, good graphics and hard-hitting gameplay. However, something funny was noticed in its latest iteration. Have a look at this video taken from the Xbox 360 version:

Yeah, that's a bit of Michael Jackson in Neverland right there on the gridiron. Make no mistake, this little glitch doesn't take away any of the game's athletic glory, but it sure does indicate that a little more game testing would've prevented this.

Still, Madden NFL 08 is still arguably the best football sim on the Xbox 360 today. It proudly continues that tradition of excellence that the Tiburon team is known for into this new generation of gaming. Let's just hope they put the same excellence to good use in correcting stuff like this.
