DEFTONES MAKE ROCK BAND DEBUT, PLUS SINGLES FROM BOYS LIKE GIRLS AND CROWN OF THORNS
Guildford, UK. – 4th June, 2010 – Harmonix and MTV Games today announced that alternative rock favorites Deftones, as well as Boys Like Girls and Crown of Thorns, will make their debuts in the Rock Band Music Store of downloadable content for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and WiiTM.With more than 400 artists, including Jimi Hendrix, The Who, AC/DC and Green Day, who are exclusive to Rock Band, as well as more than 1,500 songs available through the Rock Band platform and 68 million songs sold through its download store alone, Rock Band is the undisputed sales and content leader in the interactive music space, providing the deepest and best selection of artists, songs and albums.
Tetsuya Nomura spoke about all things Kingdom Hearts in the latest Game Informer, including plans for future titles. Nomura confirmed that an announcement about a new game will be made at E3. However, the project probably isn’t in development for Wii as Normua said that there are no plans to bring the franchise to new systems. So again, that’s a “no” for Wii most likely, but the DS certainly has a shot.
One has to wonder if the reveal is a remake of Kingdom Hearts Coded, a mobile phone download that is only available in Japan. Phil Synder, the new voice actor for Jiminy Cricket, has a small blurb on his site which states that his first project is Recoded. Coded never made its way to North America and Nomura told Game Informer that with this latest game, he wanted to “do something for the North American fans.” Perhaps Recoded will finally allow North American players to get their hands on Coded, albeit in remake form.

Thanks to joclo for the tip!
Have you been had any trouble accessing the site today? I’m assuming that’d be a “yes” for pretty much all of you. The thing is, NE has actually been up for almost the entire day! I had to make a few DNS settings changes, but unfortunately, the “downtime” varies for different people. Usually DNS changes take up to 24 hours to propagate, so I’m betting that a few of you won’t even be able to read this until tomorrow. All should be fine in a few hours, though!
And speaking of site updates, I’m going to have another one very soon. All I’ll say for now is that this is the biggest update since the opened the site in 2007! Stay tuned for more information…
