The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you. It's Rock Band week, people! Game|Life has a glowing review, while Joystiq has put together their usual metareview.

Still, this one does sound rather intriguing, as it features Jude Law as a landscape architect who decides to start investigating the repeated thefts at his state-of-the-art offices in inner-city King's Cross (a seedy area of town he's trying to help rejuvenate), and ends up stumbling outside the confines of his familiar......
