The London Movie Comic Media Expo isn't known for its gaming section, with much of its attendees preferring other forms of entertainment. But all that's gonna change this year, or improve at the very least, because apart from the support of some of today's A-list publishers, the London MCM Expo is attempting to set the World Record for "largest number of people in costume for a video game."

Johnny Rotten may think of Guitar Hero 3 as a joke, but some guitar teachers would probably disagree. Dan Emery, owner of the New York City Guitar School, says that the game's popularity may truly motivate fans to learn the guitar for themselves.

Don't go looking for Treasure Island Z anymore. You won't be able to find it because Capcom just renamed it to Zack and Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure. And IGN's recent interview with producer Hironobu Takeshita reveals a lot of things about the title itself and why it's shaping up to be a sure buy for all puzzle lovers.

Quest for Barbaros' Treasure takes place in a fictional world almost similar to ours. One of the main differences is that it abounds with pirates searching for a hidden treasure in unexplored lands and ancient ruins.

The game doesn't involve a lot of complicated controls and focuses more on the pure puzzle solving aspect, which I think a lot of female gamers will excel at and do better at than even hardcore gamers. The Wii Remote goes very well with that style of gaming and that also helped influence the decision to go with the point-and-click control scheme.
