Rock Revolution: Rock Band Killer, or Rock Band’s Rug?

By | May 16, 2008 | Xbox 360 |

Konami has announced that they are throwing their hat into the full band rhythm games with Rock Revolution. At first, you may want to say, rip-off, or things of that nature, but they were the ones to start the genre with games like Drum Mania and such in Japan. Even so, that does not mean that this game will be better, but it does have a good chance of being a good game. I don’t really like the way it looks on the trailer, but it is early to make a call on that sort of thing.

One problem, however, is how many plastic drum kits do we really want in our house? I do not need more than one, and it seems Rock Revolution (as well as GH4) are having their own proprietary drum kits, which really lowers a chance of my purchase. What do you guys think? Interested at all? Interested, but don’t need new equipment, or another band game in general?

    I don’t like the “Tetris like” dropping notes.
    Note colors seem to change and mix up. Not like RB or GH.

    Awful. I think its a bad idea. Rock Band is doing a GREAT job at this idea, so there’s no need to try to do the same thing. Especially when it looks as bad as this game. I’m upset about GH4 ripping of Harmonix as well. I’m supporting Rock Band.

    The one feature that has me interested is the ability to create your own tracks. I could be mistaken, but doesn't the 360 hardware certification requirements mean you can use the drums from one on any? or is it really that all versions must have their respective hardware?

    I love the music games and all…but between Rock Band & GH IV…where in where world am I going to store another drumset? It's great that these other companies are making music games and possibly raising the bar for the others, but I guarantee none of the drumsets will be compatible with other games. That's lame…I'll have to buy a bigger house…lol
