Beatles Rock Band Limited Edition expected to sell out by November
When a developer makes a limited edition version of their game it is assumed that that means there will be no more made after the initial batch and this holds true with the limited edition version of The Beatles: Rock Band. Taking this into consideration, it is best that you hurry up and buy the $249 bundle (which comes with Ringo Starr drums and a Paul McCartney bass) as Viacom’s CEO, Phillip Dauman, has recently told GI.biz that he expects the Limited Edition to completely sell out by November.
This assumption was made after the company realized that 25% of their entire stock of the limited edition was exhausted in its first week on store shelves.
There’s really no telling if these will sell out sooner or later than Mr. Dauman’s prediction so it is probably a good idea to go out and buy it as soon as possible.
Custom Beatles: Rock Band Xbox 360 is cool, you’ll probably never own one
Despite the title, you do have a chance to own the beautifully customized Beatles: Rock Band Xbox 360 showcases above, but the chances are slim, unless you’re willing to part with a couple bucks of course.
The best chances you have of securing yourself the Xbox 360 is by bidding on it via an auction set up by Microsoft over at eBay. Of course, the bid is currently at $3,100 with 9 days remaining. The second option you have, is to download the 360 exclusive Rock Band song, ‘All You Need is Love’ and you will be automatically entered into a drawing for one of the consoles, obviously giving you less of a chance of winning.
According to the eBay Auction, all proceeds will be donated to the Doctors Without Borders USA charity. Sure, you’re paying a ridiculous price for an Xbox 360 but at least you’re doing it for a good cause.

GTA: Chinatown Wars Nintendo DS
It seems that I Heart Cool Stuff has recently gotten a glimsp of a previously unannounced GTA: Chinatown Wars Nintendo DS.
This thing was on display at the NYC Nintendo Store for the game’s launch party and, apparently, the first 25 people in line at the launch part got the chance to get their hands on one of these consoles.
Sure, the Nintendo DS is cool but what really makes the bundle neat are the chop-stick styluses. Too cool.
Halo Wars hits North American shelves
If you didn’t already know, the late Ensemble Studios’ Halo Wars has hit North American shelves everywhere.
Don’t know what Halo Wars is? Have you been living under a rock? Only kidding, Halo Wars is the first official real time strategy (think Command & Conquer) title based in Bungie’s hugely popular Halo universe. Better yet, if you got the Limited Edition version, you now have access to Halo 3’s Mythic Map Pack.
Oh yeah, it’s an Xbox 360 exclusive, but did I really have to say that?
