The first edition of Rock Band isn’t even launched in countries like Sweden, but in the US (and other countries of course) you might be able to pick up Rock Band 2 already in September - at least if you own a Xbox 360. A long interview with the Lead Designer Dan Teasdale can be found over at IGN.

Sure, I can see the point in playing around with a small Indiana Jones dude in LEGO, and I can see the point in playing an Indiana Jones video game - but who would really be interested in playing the Indiana Jones LEGO video game. To me it’s just a really bad idea, what do you think?

You can be certain about one thing - Rockstar Games have already started working on GTA V. The newly launched Grand Theft Auto IV sold for more than $320 million during the launch week - pretty amazing!

One of the most influental games ever, DOOM, will ’soon’ (well, at least they have started working on it) get a new, fresh version - DOOM 4. id Software hasn’t really said anything worth knowing, but they published the following a short statement on their homepage today:

Production has begun on DOOM 4™, the next journey into the legendary DOOM universe. We are expanding our internal team and are currently hiring to work on this highly anticipated title.

“DOOM is part of the id Software DNA and demands the greatest talent and brightest minds in the industry to bring the next installment of our flagship franchise to Earth,” said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. “It’s critical for id Software to have the best creative minds in-house to develop games that meet the standards synonymous with our titles.”

The DOOM franchise is one of the most recognizable and important in gaming history, having been named “one of the ten most influential games of the decade” by PC Gamer and “the #1 game of all time” by GameSpy. DOOM 4 will join the award-winning series which has consistently topped sales charts throughout the world.

Oh yes, and please bear in mind that ’soon’ will probably mean that it will take at least 1.5 years before DOOM 4 is out in a store near you.

In case you have been sleeping for a week, one of the most awaited games ever got released just the other day - Grand Theft Auto IV - and now the hunt is on to find the biggest easter eggs hidden inside the game. One of the most weird ones so far is the chained, beating heart that can be found inside the Statue of Happiness. Have you played it? Personally I am staying away from it since I don’t have the time to get stuck inside a game at this point…
