nerdattack16 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 B:RB will be the greatest thing that's occured for a very long time. Not really. The beatles are the last band one would think to be in a music game. It ruins the whole "modern" feel of the game. What? No. I don't see how there's supposed to be a 'modern' feel to the game. The game is about music, and the Beatles are legendary for their music. What will make the game bad, in my opinion, is that a music game dedicated to individual bands aren't for the masses, their for the good fans of the band that can listen to nothing but the band's music all year round. B:RB doesn't bring anything new other than songs, which is quite easily solved through DLC. This is just a cash grab as far as I can see. Even some fans aren't interested. I've got a few Beatles albums, I've always liked them... but I want a challenge when I buy a game, otherwise it isn't as fun for me. And listening to Beatles songs... well, I only play drums these days and how many Beatles songs can you name that are at least somewhat challenging on the drums? I've never been interested in the band-centric game anyway, ever since GH:A it just felt like a sleazier way to make money. Now, Metallica, Van Halen, etc... there's some challenge for me. But I still won't buy either of those. Maybe I'll buy TB:RB or GH:M when the price eventually drops to $20/30. But new? No way. Although I hear when you pre-order GH5 then GH:VH comes as a bonus. Maybe I'll do that... Sig credit goes to ThruItAll. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadril Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I'm sure it's been pointed out, but how do you guys feel about the Rock band network that is coming out? Depending on what kind of bands take advantage of it I may get back into rock band a bunch, because the idea sounds awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get a bunch of metal bands on board it should be awesome. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alg Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 There are a few hard songs in 5. And they're the prog rock ones :lol: Scatterbrain (live) and Spirit of Radio are the top two by the game's standards, followed by 21st Century Schizoid Man.

Diesel Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I've made it through about half the career set-list so far and I'm impressed so far. The songs seem more fun, although it may just be because they're new, and there are some surprisingly fun songs to play. (Young Funk is one of my favorites so far) I haven't tried anything except guitar yet. I'll reserve my judgment on the drums until later. I hope they'll be better than the god awful World Tour charts. Last.Fm My Bloggy Proud to have served on Tip.it Crew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nom Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I've heard some good things about GH5 and the option to import songs on Wii blew my mind. Might be time to invest in GH5, a 16 or 32 GB SD, import all the old songs (when they become available) and sell all the old disks and be done with it.

The Music Store isn't up yet for the Wii (I'm not sure about other consoles), but I agree that it's a pretty nifty feature. You're only able to get 35 of the World Tour songs so I wouldn't ditch the old disks too quickly. I stand corrected on my favorite song. No One To Depend On, Do You Feel Like We Do, and Scatterbrain are all amazing to play.

I can live without a few of them if they can't get them all and might end up deleting some anyway. Now I need to find a Smash Hits and Metallica manual . . .

Nom Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Well, I traded in GHWT for GH5, bought an 8GB SD card, stole a Smash Hits ID from an open game on the shelf (lol GameStop) and now have 151 songs on GH5. Glad not to have a bunch of discs floating around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongo_man Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I haven't even bothered to gather the money for GH5. If I do end up buying it though, I'm pretty sure it'll be the last GH game I buy; rhythm games in general are starting to bore me =\ [If you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nom Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I thought I was done with new GH games and would just be sticking to RB2, but I'm glad I caved. It's the best one yet IMO. Plus it's hard to ignore a free copy of GHVH two months before retail release. Hopefully it'll be exportable and I can break even on the whole thing by selling it :lol: Gotta say that Do You Feel Like We Do is just awesome. A 14-minute song that never gets boring?

Nom Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I don't get why people are all worked up about B:RB. I love the Beatles as much as anyone (and more than a lot of people, no doubt), but really. That's the hardest drum chart? Nice. Yeah, it's more for the experience, blah blah. When you get down to it, it's an absurdly easy game and really not worth the money for those who want to play a somewhat challenging rhythm game. I'll stick with listening to the band. Oh, but it's Harmonix, and they can do no wrong. Of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alg Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Y'know, for all the praise that The Beatles version got and all the hate that Aerosmith got, the Aerosmith one was probably a lot more challenging.
