This morning I was asked by Channel 4 to head over to their studios for a News at Noon segment about DJ Hero's launch (the game is out today in the UK in case you didn't know). Check out the piece below which appeared on today's News at Noon.

A quick look at The Beatles: Rock Band's confirmed track list reveals the exclusion of a large number of classic Beatles tracks. 44 of the 45 songs in the game have been confirmed, which means that all of these songs (bar potentially one of them) will not be included on the disc:

1. Hey Jude
2. From Me to You
3. Let it Be
4. Love Me Do
5. She Loves You
6. Help
7. The Long and Winding Road
8. Yesterday
9. We Can Work it Out
10. Penny Lane
11. Eleanor Rigby
12. All You Need is Love (available to purchase for Xbox 360 as DLC on day one, with proceeds going to Doctors Without Borders)
13. Lady Madonna
14. The Ballad of John and Yoko

All you need is 45 songs we've chosen for you...

While it's possible that some (or most) of these songs will appear in the long and winding road of post-launch DLC there's some huge tracks that have been overlooked. Some of these might be because they wouldn't work particularly well but given that they're all confirmed number one hits their presence will be sorely missed.

What do you think about the game's soundtrack and what has/hasn't been included? Are you just glad that The Beatles' songs are finally going to appear in a videogame, or were you hoping for a more definitive collection?

It's no secret that I'm a fan of limited-edition gaming gear, so when THQ announced a special Red Faction Xbox 360, limited to a 10 console run, I was a little intrigued. To celebrate the new Demons of the Badlands DLC, THQ is giving away one of these to a lucky member of the public, through a competition on the THQ UK site (UK residents only, alas).

GameSpot was lucky enough to be nominated for the 13th Annual Webby Awards in the category of "People's Voice Award for Best Games-Related Website," and thanks to your votes we won! Here's editor in chief Ricardo Torres' acceptance speech at the award night in New York (all acceptance speeches were limited to five words).

Okay so perhaps it isn't so subliminal after all. Actually it's an overt, cheeky in-game plug for Club Nintendo. Nonetheless it did come as an amusing surprise between rounds with the formidable Bald Bull. Punch-Out!! is out this Friday, check out our full review from Tom Mc Shea for the low down.
