Harmonix Offering Every Rock Band Song Ever on PC
Harmonix announced access to the entire Rock Band DLC library for Rock Band 4 on PC.
The collection costs $2500 USD, and should include over 2000 songs aggregated over the course of Rock Band's history. The package is a tier in its Rock Band Fig campaign.
Harmonix noted licensing could affect whether certain songs will be available in the package, or if certain songs leave the DLC library in the future. The company didn't confirm if future DLC will be included in this deal.
While Harmonix is looking into offering a similar deal for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of Rock Band 4, the studio does not have any "specific plans" for a console Collector pack.
Hear a Beatle’s Voicemail to Destiny Composer
When you’re as accomplished a composer as Marty O’Donnell, getting an international rock icon like Paul McCartney to sign on to help in composing the soundtrack to your game is just a product of luck and solid connections.
In an interview with IGN Unfiltered, O’Donnell explained the process of how the ex-Beatle became involved. When speaking with an associate one day, O’Donnell was asked who he would ideally want to work with as Bungie prepared to start work on the Destiny score. McCartney’s name was floated, which he remembers seeming impossible.
Black Sails Season Finale Preview: Flint is Ready for War
Black Sails is ready to blow us out of the water with its Season 3 finale, airing Saturday, March 26th on Starz.
War is upon us as Flint (Toby Stephens) has rallied his band of pirates and ex-slaves into one massive defensive battle against the British Navy at the disposal of Nassau Governor Woodes Rogers. Everything is on the line and IGN's got an exclusive image from the episode, showing a blood-covered Flint ready to strike.
Will the Captain's plan to lure his enemies into an unpredictable, untraditional fight work, or will our heroes crumble before King George's massive fleet?

High Res Images of New Destiny Enemies Released
Bungie released high resolution images of some of the upcoming Destiny enemies, and also clarified a point about the Prison of Elders.
Bungie ran a live stream earlier in the week detailing its Spring update. You can find the full stream archive below. However, unlike what was mentioned on the stream, Prison of Elders does not have any checkpoints.
Community manager David "DeeJ" Dague has also given us updates on a couple of other things that weren't mentioned on the stream. Namely, King's Fall will drop rewards up to 330, and Court of Oryx will drop Artifacts up to 335.
How to Buy a 4K or HDTV
Shopping for a new television can be difficult. There are so many choices, and it doesn’t help that TV manufacturers keep naming sets with a seemingly random string of letters and numbers.
TV shopping doesn’t have to be a headache. We've assembled this guide to help you identify the features you want and achieve the balance of performance and price that you need.
It doesn’t matter how massive or feature-rich a TV is, if you can't afford it, it's not going to end up in your living room. Here's an idea of what you'll be spending (if you want some specific TV recommendations, you'll find those at the end of this article):
For a large 1080p TV (50-60 inches), expect to pay around $500 to $1000, depending on the model. It’s actually getting harder to find non-4K TVs these days and you'll likely find deals on older 1080p TVs if you shop around.
Where’s the Netflix for Comics?
The rise of digital media has completely changed how we consume entertainment, and comics is no exception. Digital providers like Comixology, the Kindle Store and iBooks are becoming increasingly important when it comes to measuring sales (even if publishers remain reluctant to actually reveal digital sales figures). That said, the comics industry has yet to fully embrace digital in the way the movie, music and games industries have. Until comic fans have their own answer to services like Netflix and Spotify, digital comics will always be behind the curve.
Personally, I've gone almost completely digital when it comes to my comic book consumption. My reasons are probably the same as many other readers these days. Digital comics are great because they don't take up valuable space in your home, because buying a book on an iPad is a lot more convenient than driving to a store and because, honestly, comics just look better on a high resolution tablet screen. The lines are sharper and the colors are richer.
5 Ways Superman Could Destroy Batman
Earlier this week, we showed how Batman could beat Superman, but now it's time to flip the script and show how Superman could beat Batman. Actually, Superman is so strong that he would pretty much destroy Batman with minimal effort. But that didn't stop us from breaking down the best options Supes has for using his many, many powers to take out the Dark Knight.
Superman is so unbelievably strong that he could knock Batman unconscious, or worse, with nothing but a light flick to the forehead. Seriously, the guy can lift cars, planes, and that Daily Planet globe (that always seems to fall off) like it’s nothing. We’ve even seen him move entire planets. So with the same effort you or I would play a game of paper football, Superman can KO Batman.

Charlie Cox Still Wants Daredevil in a Marvel Movie
When we spoke to Charlie Cox just before Daredevil debuted on Netflix last year, he said he wants the character to appear in a Marvel movie, stating “I’d love to see Daredevil back on the big screen again.”
That hasn’t yet happened, and when we caught up with him on the eve of the release of Season 2, Cox admitted he’s none-the-wiser as to if and when it could occur.
“No idea. Literally no idea” he explained. “I really don’t know whether Marvel Studios and Marvel TV – whether that crossover could happen. I know it happened in other shows – I know it’s happened in Agents of SHIELD and of course Agent Carter – but I have no idea.”
