The Gorillaz will be headlining next week's Rock Band update with three songs being made available as DLC for the game's PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. The Wii version is also getting its own update in the form of eleven tracks taken from the Rock Band back catalog, while Rock Band Unplugged will play host to a pair of new Iron Maiden songs.

Activision has finally revealed the full track listing of Guitar Hero 5 (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii). The list features 85 tracks ranging from pop to rock, from indie to classic. The game is slated for a September 1 release.

After trickling the whole thing out piece by piece on different websites, Activision has finally put up a complete list of the bands whose songs will show up in Guitar Hero 5 (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii) on the game's official website.

Quite unsurprisingly, Hideki Kamiya's new action extravaganza Bayonetta (PS3, Xbox 360) has been slapped with a Mature rating by the ESRB. I didn't really expect anything less from a game with a dominatrix as the heroine.

MTV Games has announced that songs from the first Rock Band game will not be available as downloadable content for Rock Band 2. Apparently, the reasons are capitalistic as they plan to publish the first game "indefinitely." Better call up your friends and see if you can borrow a copy to export the songs.

Making its way around the Internet is an intriguing new rumor related to Guitar Hero World Tour (Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii). This rumor is made interesting by virtue of it being a potential set list for the game. Find the rumor list after the jump!

A release schedule of what seems to be the March DLC lineup for Harmonix and MTV Games' Rock Band (Xbox 360, PS3, PS2) has surfaced. We're tagging this one as a rumor for now, but the lineup - which includes songs from artists like Bad Company, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Evile and Nine Inch Nails - sure does look interesting. Check out the full article for the details.

We've got some good news for you Rock Band lovers out there. Sean Baptiste, director of Community Development over at Harmonix, has announced the latest set of downloadable tracks for rock band, and they involve some goodies from Iron Maiden, The Hives, and Stone Temple Pilots.

The entire song list for Harmonix and MTV Games' Rock Band (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) has been released and it's a pretty solid line-up. The game offers 58 songs (45 licensed tracks off the bat and an additional 13 unlockable songs) from the 1960's all the way to the present.

It looks like there something for everyone in the game. Old school rockers lovers would probably be excited to play the Rolling Stones' Gimme Shelter, The Outlaws' Green Grass & High Tides, and KISS' Detroit Rock City while the youngbloods would probably want to headbang to Metallica's Enter Sandman and the Beastie Boys' Sabotage.

Rock Band is slated to hit North American stores this November 20. You can expect to find the game to be going for about US$ 169.99 (inclusive of the guitar, mic, drum kit and game) and US$ 59.99 for just the game itself. Anyway, we're not going to keep you hanging any longer, here's the entire track list for the game. Enjoy!
