UK gamers get game sneak-peak
Posted on March 1, 2008
Play.com (a particularly spiffy online retailer of movies, etc. in the UK) is having itÂs Live! event at Wembley Stadium on March 15th and 16th.
This sounds cool in general, with the promise of Rock Band jamming, but of high interest to ghostheads;The Sun
Jam away on EAÂs Rock Band music game where you play guitars, drums and sing and get the chance to try out the new Ghostbusters adventure thatÂs certainly going to be one of this yearÂs classics.
ThereÂs also the likes of Soul Calibur IV and Lego Indiana Jones to try out plus competitions, live bands and plenty of surprises.
To get tickets, just log onto play.com or call 0845 270 1669 (Mon-Fri 9am-6pm).
Any UK gamers attending are encouraged to report to PC!
