The Rhythm Game Track Finder saw one of it's most diverse updates ever last week, with the addition of one game, one video editor, and two sets of DLC.Some of MTV's biggest artists including Snoop Dogg, Paramore, The Black Eyed Peas and C + C Music Factory (come on … they were big once) help round out the now 60 different games included in the Track Finder.Some of the biggest names in hip-hop come together to help gamers prove who has the best skills in "Get On Da Mic." With 40 different tracks from artists like Kanye West, Dr. Dre, NWA, and Digital Underground "Get On Da Mic" spans the old school to new school hip-hop, and should have a little something for everyone.
This week's "Rock Band" updates come courtesy of South By Southwest, and Earache Records. Last week's songs (the announcement came late, which is why they weren't included in last weeks update) were from bands playing the "Rock Band" showcase at the South by Southwest music conference in Austin, TX last week. This week's tracks are all Earache Records artists, and, as you may be able to guess, a bit on the heavy side. At the Gates, Evile, and The Haunted will all put your eardrums to the test.

"God of War" and "Twisted Metal" creator David Jaffe didn't grow up a rap guy. But now he's listening to a lot of it, especially the more aggressive stuff of the 90s.
