• When Two Worlds Collide
You don't fuck with Iron Maiden. Creators of the comic book Iron and the Maiden are being sued by the heavy metal giants for having a name that was too close for comfort. Here's Iron and the Maiden. And here is Iron Maiden. Yep. I can see how that might be confusing.

• Polishing a turd don't make it better
The folks at Cynamite.com present a gallery of the top 50 games (on all systems) their readers are most looking forward to playing. I get Splinter Cell: Conviction (PC, Xbox 360) and the obvious Halo 4 (Xbox 360), Gears of War 3 (Xbox 360) and BioShock 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360). I even get Heavy Rain (PS3), which I'd probably rather just stare at than play. But Diablo III? Overlord 2? [Cynamite.com]

• All you need is love ... and a Rickenbacker 325
Finally, they've released the other instruments that will be available for The Beatles: Rock Band. The lineup looks like this:

* a Rickenbacker 325 guitar controller
* a Ludwig drum set
* Gretsch Duo Jet guitar controller
* custom Hofner bass guitar controller

All of this is great, but damn it ... can we get the friggin' Beatles music catalog on iTunes already?

• 'Get Ready to soil your plants'. Clever.
And in the "Crap that no one asked for but we're giving it to you anyway" files, PopCap brings us Plants vs. Zombies, a fun-filled romp into the world of pansy-assed (pun intended) people who use plants as weapons to ward off zombies. Because zombies are notoriously afraid of a ficus. When I get to the point where I have to use lawn fertilizer and a potted fern as weapons, I raise the white flag.
