Keep up-to-date with all the latest video game releases! Kidzworld has all the latest games to keep watch for. This week, we preview LEGO Rock Band, Band Hero, and Frogger Returns!

LEGO Rock Band

LEGO Rock Band is an all-new game spun off from the Rock Band series emphasizing more kid-friendly rock hits and with some gameplay changes that let everyone get in on the fun. The Rock Band series started off hard and just kept getting harder, but thankfully you don't have to get 100% on "Train Kept A Rollin'" with your hands tied behind your back to play this one. "Super Easy" mode lets you just tap along to the rhythm without having to worry about frets or specific drums. Through play, you earn LEGO studs to customize your band, roadies, and rock den however you like. Oh, and you can play as Iggy Pop or David Bowie!


Band Hero

Band Hero is an all-new game spun off from the Guitar Hero series emphasizing pop hits and with some gameplay changes that let everyone get in on the fun. The Guitar Hero series started off hard and just kept getting harder, but thankfully you don't have to get 100% on "Through the Fire and Flames" with a blindfold on to play this one. "Party Play" mode lets anyone switch in and out from playing in the middle of a song, and on whatever instrument they choose. Also, anyone can play any number of any instruments, including four lead singers. Oh, and you can play as Taylor Swift!


Frogger Returns

Later this fall, Konami will be releasing Frogger Returns for Nintendo WiiWare and the Playstation Network. The game keeps that still-addictive original gameplay and jazzes it up with a new graphical style and some interesting power-ups. Also, this game is going to be 12 times the size of the original. You can enjoy that classic gameplay and the updated 3d look with friends in local multiplayer match-ups.

                      Candy Crush is a game on mostly all Apple products. This game is a extremely fun game but eventually gets hard. You have to get 3, 4, or even 5 candies in a row. You have to earn points and clear something called jelly. Jelly is a little layer of jelly covering the candy. You have to get the candies in a row, like normal. Then the jelly will dissolve. Once that happens, you will have to make another row matching. It gets very hard and complicating. These levels go up to more than 200!!! If you haven't yet downloaded this app or played online, get going because you my friends have a longggggggg way to go!!

I was looking out the window while going home once and in between the trees, RIGHT THERE, was a white face, well, he doesn't really have a face, but a white head. NOW HE'S GOING TO HAUNT ME UNTIL I DIE. SOMEONE HELP ME. I hate the game and I hate slender man. Here's some tips for the game: rule 1 for all horror games: do not *repeat* DO NOT TURN AROUND. IF YOU DO, BAM, THERE IT IS. Rule 2 for Slender: The breathing heavily means nothing, except if they breathe heavily for too long, then you slow down. So only run when you see Slender Man. Rule 3 for slender: WHY THE HECK DID YOU GO INTO HIS FOREST IN THE FIRST PLACE?!?! That's all I have. THANK YOU AND STAY AWESOME!! OMG THIS
