Boom Boom Rocket update adds guitar, dance pad support

Because clearly, a music game simply isn't complete until it can turn mild-mannered button pushers into gyrating vessels of awkwardness. Not that we mind -- we're quite eager to stomp our way through Bizarre Creations' fun rocket-based rhythmer again. In a recent studio update, Bizarre reveals a new Xbox Live Arcade title update for Boom Boom Rocket has made its way through the certification gauntlet, bringing with it the following changes (the most important ones highlighted):

• Guitar and dance pad peripheral support.
  
• Japanese and Korean language support.
• Tweaked scoring system focusing only on accuracy.
• The huge loud "noise" which popped up occasionally on endurance mode is now gone.
  
• Occurrences of scores getting overwritten with a lower score when playing with 2 profiles signed in is now fixed.
• Display updates when viewing the game through a VGA cable.
• Friends leaderboard now shows extra information such as grade, accuracy, etc.
• Multiplayer endurance mode fix for player colors swapping sporadically.
• Slightly bigger and better explosions.

Now if we could just get our arthritic hands on some new downloadable songs (actual music this time, please), we'll really see some fireworks.
