So we’ve all seen it before. A killer game comes out, and even while the game reaches a fever pitch with its fans, it always seems like there is a segment of the population that are hard-to-please; always nitpicking about each and every detail.
And while you may not be that same gamer, maybe you’re the type of person that loves the way developers create their ‘vision’ for the game, but would love to just see a few ideas the’ve left out, put in the game.
Well if you’ve felt that way about Guitar Hero I & II, the developers at Harmonix are listening, and in fact, what their GH audience to help them have a voice for their next music game, Rock Band.
As 2G4G mentioned, Rock Band is the new game being developed by Harmonix in the wake of their closed relationship with previous GH producers, Red Octane. Now with EA & MTV, Harmonix is positioning themselves to build off the GH games and build a whole band – each gamer being able to be a member of the band through drums, guitars, and vocals.
So question is, what music do you want to play? As we speak, the developers are asking for your input, as they’ve setup a website, simply enough christened, rockband.com.
So whether you’re in the mood to play a little 80s new wave, 90s alternative, or some punk or Emo, make sure to cast you’re vote for Rock Band’s song list.
This foresight should help the developers keep the momentum going. As gamers eagerly wait for new content. What’s cool is that from the developers own mouth in their FAQs section of rockband.com, they themselves are trying to answer gamers concerns.
From how much the peripherals may cost (rumored to reach $300 for the whole set; yet to be confirmed) to whether the Xbox360 GH controller will work (in a nutshell; yes!) or when the release date is (none set; tentative Fall 2007 on Xbox360 & PS3) make sure to visit Rockband.com and harmonixmusic.com to get your 411. (well, that or you can always stick to 2G4G!; we got you’re back)
