PopStar Guitar Adds More Early Teen Favourites
2:20AM Mike Fahey | As much as I like to make fun of XS Games’ PopStar Guitar for even existing, I can’t shake the feeling that if I were 20 years younger or so I would really get a kick out of their track listing. They’ve just revealed five new original master recordings for the game, two from Fall Out Boy, one from Paramore, and two from the All-American Rejects, joining a lineup packed with tunes from The Jonas Brothers, Hannah “Stop Calling Me That” Montana, Maroon 5, and Three Doors Down. The track list reads like an iTunes shopping list for creepy internet men who want to pretend they’re 14-year-old girls on MySpace. More »

A MySpace For DC Universe Online
9:20AM Leigh Alexander | Looks like SOE’s DC Universe Online just wants to hook up and share animated gifs and befriend bands online. Well, at the very least, DCUO now has an official MySpace page, full of interesting info, extras like wallpaper downloads and buddy icons, and even some (small) screens. If you’re a MySpace user and you friend the page, it looks like you can even score an invite to a DCUO party at Comic-Con, just by bringing a printout of your page (presumably the one that shows you’re all pally). Screens after the jump. [via Joystiq] More »GameTraders Bundaberg Has A MySpace Page Too
1:30PM Logan Booker | If Carillon GameTraders can make a MySpace page for its customers, there’s nothing to stop other GT outlets from doing the same.
Matt Cooper, assistant manager for GT’s Bundaberg operations, has put some effort into a page for his store. I’m assuming the deal is the same as Carillon’s – to make people aware of sales, offers and events. That, or a posting board for emo poetry about PS3 shortages or the gruelling experiences of working in retail.
Oh, I’m only kidding! Now, go make friends with an inanimate object.

GameTraders Heads To MySpace
2:00PM Logan Booker | We’ve all heard of GameTraders. It’s been breaking street dates since the beginning of time, and probably a little before then.
In order to keep customers up-to-date with tournaments, deals, offers and the like, the Carillon store has started a MySpace page. While I think Facebook might have been a better choice, MySpace is more than sufficient.
If you’re a fan of the independent retailer, it might be an idea to sign up. At the moment it doesn’t provide much, but Travis of GameTraders says he’s in the process of getting it up to scratch.
