LEGO Rock Band

I’m a fan of the LEGO video games (LEGO Star Wars being the best of course), which is why I’m excited for this LEGO Rock Band variation. The game promises humor and family fun alongside the rocking out (you can customize your little characters and all the notes are actually LEGO bricks!). With music stars like David Bowie and Iggy Pop (who will VO the tutorials), the November release can’t come soon enough. View the running song tracklist here, and pre-order the game from Amazon to make sure you have it for x-mas.

A Boy and His Blob

A Boy and His Blob is a scrolling 2D Wii remake of the NES original. Pretty cute concept involves a blob named Blobert that changes shape depending on which flavor Jelly Bean you feed it. Release is set for October 13, 2009. Pre-order from Amazon and save $4.

Scribblenauts DS Game, ManBearPig Approved

Scribblenauts is a rare breed of open-ended, do what you want video games that are only limited by your imagination.

PS3 Game Download: Fat Princess

$15.00 download for PS3 | Read Kotaku Review

Now, this is interesting! Cute, customizable characters run around killing each other and feeding their princess so the other team can’t carry her away. The multi-player aspect (and network lag) seems to be the only drawback and will hopefully be ironed out soon. Even so, the game is getting glowing reviews and is definitely worth checking out (video review below).

PS3 EyePet is the New Aibo

Augmented reality has been everywhere these days, but this is the first time I’m even marginally interested in the results. The PS3 EyePet looks mega-cute and seems really interactive & fun (check out the Kotaku review). The game comes with a (I’m sure very special) white card and will be sold with and without the PS3 Eye camera. Should be hitting stores this Holiday season.
