Aerosmith, AC/DC, Metallica, and most recently, The Beatles are the other internationally known bands that have had a music based game made after them.

This week has seen the release of the latest Halo game, Halo 3: ODST. This new game is like no others before unlike all the other games, you don’t play as Master Chief. So this introduces something new into the Halo universe, but does it really stand up to the previous games? I would say no.

There are various websites where you can buy and sell anything from toilet rolls to televisions, but the problem with these is that they come with fees for listing your items.
