”Rock Band VH1 Mockumentary
All the MTV Networks are going all out to promote the launch of Rock Band. Above you can see a clip of the first act of VH1's "mockumentary," ROCK BAND Cometh: The Rock Band Band Story. It's sort of like Behind the Music...but with plastic instruments and everyone's favorite TV host Kurt Loder! The best part are the talking head interviews with Dave Mustaine from Megadeth, Anthony DeCurtis from Rolling Stone....and Mandy Moore? Let's hope this isn't a sign of Mandy Moore DLC coming for Rock Band. If you want to watch more of the documentary you can go to VH1's Rock Band site or watch it on VH1 Classic when it premieres on November 11 and 8 PM ET/PT. Spinal Tap it is not.

One of my favorite TV shows, VH1's weekly roundup of entertainment news and hot topics Best Week Ever, gave the Nintendo Wii the coveted award of having, well, the "Best Week Ever". Fortunately, no footage of said colon lodged Wii exists, but apparently it happened during a rousing game of Wii Sports tennis. Ouch.

VH1 Kicks MTV's Guitar Hero Ass
Say it ain't so. I always thought MTV kicked VH1's ass, but apparently it's the other way round. The VH1 Online gaming team went up against the MTV Wireless squad in a Guitar Hero grudge match and apparently wiped the floor with them. More »

The Movies' Site Ready for Its Close-Up
VH1's new game site, Game Break, points out that Lionhead has freshened up their Movies site. The make-over is in preperation for The Movies upcoming expansion pack Stunts and Effects, which hits on June 6. The relaunch includes giving The Movies movie-makers the ability to market and promote their Sim-like films with posters. The site will also have new categories for films made with the expansion pack. Finally, people who buy the expansion pack will get their site disk space bumped up from 10 megs to 25 megs. So far the site is host to almost 90,000 movies, which, if played back-to-back, would take 196 days to watch. That and the ability to stomach an endless stream of cliche-ridden blockbuster knock-offs. More »
