Rock Band is SO AWESOME.
« on: May 25, 2008, 12:48:58 AM »
Seriously. The guitar seems a little boring, even on Medium. Easy was a snore. But drums are great, even if I feel like a complete distinguished mentally-challenged fellow trying to keep up. I figured I wouldn't even bother with vocals, but they turned out to be my favorite- Watching that arrow pitch up and down, it's almost like voice-controlled Gradius. I didn't try bass yet, but the tour mode is fun. I'm just psyched to unlock more songs. Sabtaoge is mega fun and 29 Fingers is like the best shit in the universe.

The first time I ever tried online, I tried QuickMatch and it dropped my sorry little "Medium" butt into a Green Grass and High Tides on Expert session. Utter Fail.

Other than that, yeah, allow me to jump in on the Rock Band love-fest. It is accomplished in every single way except player sign-in and Band World Tour over XBL.

My Mom was so psyched that she got extra sausages and told me to come over and bring my friends so we could ROCK PARTY.

Yeah, the multiplayer co-op just takes Rock Band into a whole other stratosphere from Guitar Hero. I was blown away the first time I got to play it.

Rock Band blew me away when I first played unpacked it and started playing.  Before then I've only played GH2 on the 360, and while I enjoyed it, the track list wasn't that great IMHO.  But the first night I got RockBand I played it with my friends for 5 hours straight.  Amazing game.

Dead or Alive is fucking criminal, who picked that shit? Also, I noticed that as the game goes on, songs don't get harder as much as they get longer.

Yep, most songs are pretty repetitive in note charts and easy, even on expert, but there are some that will trip you up (on Expert) - Hand that Feeds had me shitted, and some other one I cant think of off-hand. I can only 3-star songs, but as long as I pass it, I'm cool.

The guitar is boring. Drums are awesome in this game. What's even more fun is pulling a Phil Collins and singing and drumming simultaneously.
