Taking the stage this Friday, November 28th is an Activision and Xbox Live sponsored Guitar Hero World Tour Weekend that’s full of rockin’, rollin’ and prizes.

During the World Tour Weekend, you’ll have the chance to play with a handful of the game’s developers in a Sunday Game With Developers session and get the opportunity to score some sweet World Tour swag in the Play & Win giveaway. Simply register prior to the weekend’s fun to be eligible. Oh, and don’t forget to stock up on guitar picks, because it is customary to toss one out into the crowd after every performance.

We just received intel that there will be a week of Call of Duty: World at War double XP beginning December 5th, but that it’s semi-exclusive. Only World at War collector’s edition purchasers will have access to the XP fun. Those who registered their World at War CE copy (register it here) will have access to a special “Officer’s Club” playlist that’ll award twice the XP and (hopefully) twice the fun. Remember, the week of two-times XP begins December 5th and wraps at 11:59AM pacific on Friday, December 12th. At ease, soldier.

As far as music games are concerned, today is officially The Killers Day on the Xbox Live Marketplace, because both Rock Band and Guitar Hero World Tour are offering up a heaping helping of The Killers musical tracks. So, we’re sure The Killers fanboys out there will find something to spend their Microsoft points on.

But that isn’t all, Yngwie Malmsteen, Soundgarden and Lamb of God also have musical DLC available for purchase on the Rock Band music store. Too much explaining … just hit the break for all the details and get insta-linked to the Xbox.com Marketplace.

Okay, so yes, the video above is not of an actual game. It’s also not a video created by devoted fans. No, it’s a video created by an ad agency — and paid for by Activision — designed to hock Guitar Hero. But does that make it less awesome? We’re inclined to say that it does not. Furthermore, we’re hopeful that the video will inspire creative people to discover what other games are best represented via bicycle. Might we suggest Bikes of War and Bike 4 Dead? Get to it, internet.

GI.biz reports that first week sales of Call of Duty: World at War in the UK have exceeded first week sales of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare by a margin of more than 2 to 1. The game landed in the number one spot in the UK for all platforms according to Chart-Track. Considering the previous installment sold over 10 million copies, it’s not too surprising that the latest has managed to pick up significant sales. Another thing that isn’t too surprising (though perhaps a little alarming) is that Activision published games make up more than 25% of all game sales in the UK last week (thanks in no small part to the Lich King).

The next step: Activision acquires a little start-up named Cyberdyne Systems. You know the rest.
