: Rock Band 3 Officially Announced For Holiday 2010
An anonymous reader writes "Philippe Dauman, Viacom CEO and President, announced today that Harmonix is currently working on the next Rock Band game, Rock Band 3, due for release Holiday 2010. 'The company is pursuing the game in spite of an industry-weakening decline in the once-booming genre of peripheral-equipped music games. Although the franchise has generated over $1 billion to date, the category in general saw sales contract by as much as half throughout 2009. MTV Games parent Viacom also saw Rock Band declines drag on its balance sheet in its last fiscal quarter, and expressed a need to refocus away from pricey peripherals in favor of software. It also said that due to royalties it would need to be more "selective" about track listings, and that it needs more support from the music industry in that department.'"

: GDC: Street Fighter IV hits App Store now
At a special GDC edition of "Street Fighter Fight Club," Capcom announced that the iPhone version of Street Fighter IV should be available on the App Store... now. Or soon.
I know this because I watched as Capcom clicked a mouse to set the app live, telling a crowd that the game would be available within a few hours. Sure enough, it's available now. The game, which will cost $9.99, will feature eight characters: Abel, Blanka, Chun Li, Ryu, M. Bison, Dhalsim, Guile, and Ken.
The game sports some pretty stunning graphics for an iPhone game -- viewing it on the small screen, the game was detailed and colorful, with little notable distinction between the full console game. Controls on the "phantom analog" were a bit iffy (pulling off a fireball motion was possible, but hit or miss), but the game features an "auto special" option, as well -- yes, that means one button plus a direction to launch special attacks.
We'll have our full review of the game up soon enough, so if you're not feeling dropping ten bones just yet, sit tight.
