This isn’t a real news item per se, but I thought you guys would get a kick out of this. I’d heard of the Brazilian video game metal cover band MegaDriver before, and enjoyed their tunes, but never knew that they possessed such a stunning axe!

Destructoid adds, “This custom axe sports a 24-fret maple neck with EMG 81 active pickups, a Floyd Rose Lo-Pro bridge and a Brazilian body of ‘Angelim Pedra’ wood,” and I suppose that would mean something if you were a guitar player. I’d love to have a Tails bass myself…

This was all due to a nasty feud between them, Harmonix, EA, and Red Octane which I will not go into great detail, simply because this is a game review, not MTV’s Behind The Scenes. Besides, my puny brain cannot remember industry details unless I have Gamasutra.com and Gamebiz next to me. So how does Neversoft handle Harmonix’s baby this time around?

This goes specially for Nahu. These insane videos make every guitar player hide behind a big 300 Watt Amp for protection. Dream Theater’s guitarrist, John Petrucci shows away some of his real side. Time to start practicing!

I don’t play the guitar, but this is wicked cool; and I DO beleive that something happens when someone plays that fast.

This is what’s crackin’ on mah PC tonite! A guitar Hero simulator for PC called Frets on Fire. But, how am I going to play a guitar hero-type game if I don’t have a guitar? *Ping!* Using your Keyboard! you assign the “tabs” to keys and fret with the “Enter” or “Shift” key preferably.
