There is also a glitch for Mafia Wars on the iPhone. I almost feel bad posting this glitch because it is sure to ruin the game for some people. But lets be honest, there are 'Godfather Point Glitchers' that have already done that. This just levels the playing field a bit so anyone can glitch, with or without a jailbroken iPhone...

Guitar Hero: Smash Hits Cheats and Track List

Thu, 18 Jun 2009 00:05:23 +0000

I know what you're thinking... "Another Guitar Hero, another release of the same songs wrapped in another package." Oh, you weren't thinking that? Sorry. Perhaps you should be. As the name implies Guitar Hero: Smash Hits is a compilation of previously released Guitar Hero songs, as voted for inclusion within the game by gamers. One would think we would have the cream of the crop here, and without a doubt there are some good songs on the list.

Guitar Hero: Smash Hits is now available for PS2, PS3, Wii and Xbox 360. As with previous Guitar Hero video games Smash Hits also has a nifty cheat feature. I'm not sure that I have a full list just yet, but there are about a half-dozen codes so far. Take a look at the track list and grab the codes for the game at the links below. And as always, if you have additional codes, hints or tips let me know and I'll add them in.

Edit: Guitar Hero: Smash Hits Cheat pages have been updated with additional codes.

Choplifter Resurrection May be in the Works

Wed, 17 Jun 2009 21:13:36 +0000

While doing some of my daily skimming through gaming sites I took notice to something Gamespot posted. Choplifter may be making its way back into the gaming scene. For many of you I'm sure this means little to nothing, but some of my fondest memories of the good old arcade era revolve around that very game, one of my favorites.

Yesterday, developer inXile Entertainment filed a trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the title "Choplifter." The filing locked down use of the title for "downloadable electronic games via the Internet and wireless devices," raising the possibility of a digitally distributed version of the game for consoles, handhelds, or possibly the iPhone.

It would be a retro-treat to see this game make a come back on any of the consoles, handhelds, virtual arcades or other mobile devices. An appearance on the iPhone would be especially welcomed. Read the full story in Gamespot's original post. That being said, what long lost games would you like to see return? Comments welcomed.
