CaptainRon Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Anyone pick this up? Has some tracks that might be a good complement to my rhythm game collection. Also, the drums they have coming out next month look pretty awesome (and Konami has a nice track record of always killing it with their arcade instruments).

fighting fish Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 There is only a few songs on the setlist that excite me, and I have hopes that those'll eventually end up as DLC on Rock Band. I just don't think I can justify buying all of the new band games coming out, even if all the instruments are compatible. I was thinking of picking up GHWT, but I'm going to bail on that as well, I just have too much money invested in Rock Band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris F Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Anyone pick this up? Has some tracks that might be a good complement to my rhythm game collection.

The backgrounds and animations looked amateurish, and the cover songs sounded awful. I've heard bad things about the drums as well. I'll try and find the review of them I saw online and post it when I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 The couple of reviews I have seen have been bad. I think 1Up gave it a D actually. I will stick with RB and GH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 IGN's review is up too. They make it sound bad, bad, bad, bad. They particularly slam on the drum, saying it's cheap, nasty & ineffective. It sounds as if even if Rock Band & Guitar Hero didn't exist, this would be a poor Bemani game. Bit of a shame.

CaptainRon Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Finally got a chance to play this at my friend's place. It's certainly not revelatory, but some of the tracks are pretty cool and it might be a decent pickup if you're the kind of rhythm freak who already has everything else. But maybe I'm just giving Konami too much credit from all my nostalgia of spending hours and hours on Beatmania IIDX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 I'm sure nobody cares, but I saw the Rock Revolution drums w/ game in stores today. $150 is awfully expensive. I was surprised by how many they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Rock Revolution Drumset w/ game is already down to $50. Must have been selling like hotcakes! Saw just the game for $25. Considered getting it then thought better of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 My local Best Buy is selling the game only for $20. I'm holding out for $10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
