Bizarre Creations, the developers of the Xbox Live Arcade music-rhythm game Boom Boom Rocket, have added something really cool through an upcoming title update, which has just passed certification and will be “coming soon”. It’ll add support for guitar and dance mat controllers!

Here’s a list of what’s new in the update:
* Guitar and dancemat peripheral support (oh yes!)
* Japanese and Korean language support.
* Tweaked scoring system to make grade awarded more fair (now purely based 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 colours swapping sporadically.
* Slightly bigger and better explosions (updates to firework rendering).

Watch the developers try both the guitar and dance mat controls at the same time.
