April is looking to be a scantily clad month for new video game releases. It seems like our wallets will be given a bit of a breather after March's raid on our savings. But, even though April looks to be sparse, that doesn't mean there isn't a reason to get a little excited for some new releases

Today's Cosplay of the Day goes back to the days of PlayStation 2 and the rising popularity of Guitar Hero. This franchise would go on to sell so many plastic instruments that LEGO bands would quake with envy. One of the coolest characters was a bassist named after IGN's very own former Editor-in-Chief and current Head of Brand and Community, Casey Lynch (who happens to be a dude)!
