Today is the day for the release of the Beatles: Rock Band and the remastered albums. I'll pick up the game, that's a no-brainer, but I wonder if the albums will be a temptation too. We have most of the Beatles catalog on disc already, and were never struck by any audio shortcomings, but it will be interesting hearing the remastered versions. I'm sort of fascinated by the authenticity of the mono versions, but am probably not enough of a purist to go that route. Today is also the tenth anniversary of the launch of the Sega Dreamcast in North America... this is one of the few such anniversaries that seems short compared with my recollection: the Dreamcast was discontinued so long ago it seems like it must have launched two decades ago, rather than one.
