Rock Band Sells 3 Million Copies, and 10 Million DLC Songs

We have all heard of Rock Band. Face it. You can either love it or hate it, but there is no denying its success. And by these recent sales numbers, MTV Games, and Harmonix are laughing all the way to the bank. Ok that was uncalled for.

But what contributed to the success of Rock Band? The drums and mic? Or just the sheer amount of DLC that there is? I am thinking the DLC. I know of many people that keep going back online to buy the newest songs. And who can blame them? Unlike Guitar Hero 3, there are weekly updates for songs. EVERY week since the game launched. So like I said, laughing all the way to the bank...

FFVII Director Hints at a FFVII Remake!


Woot. I am not much into Final Fantasy, but one of the few games in the series I like is VII. I dunno why, but I just like it. Now we have great news like this. Woot.

Now we do not have any announcements to make this official, and there was also no console to mention either. But just hearing something like this is good for now!

My feelings are that if a remake were to work well then all the core members of the original team must be reassembled, all the artists and designers. The problem is that, although all of us have an idea of what a remake should be and how to do it, organising such a thing right now is logistically very difficult. All the different members are now involved in very new, very large projects like Final Fantasy XIII and those projects are going to take a while. Maybe, when all those games are finished then we can look at doing something like that. Of course, that said we came up with the idea for Crisis Core in just two days. It was a case of 'this is what we want to do, so let's do it'. So, you can definitely expect the probability of something spontaneous happening at some point, but it's hard to predict.
