Hopefully it's a rhythm based open-world RPG where you can chose factions of rock, rap, etc., and fight evil corporate executives with magical guitar solos or funky beats.

Which Bemani games have not been Westernized yet? Pop'n Music?

You read my post and stole it. You bastard. =P

Something Disney with F?

List of Disney movies that start with F:


Either they're doing a Flubber Kinect game, some iOS game for Finding Nemo or something with Fantasia.

Why does a Flubber Kinect game sound like the greatest thing imaginable? Or should I go back to my meds again?

As for a musically-oriented Fantasia game, that sounds wondrous and something I look forward to.

 

[Axispowers]

I seriously cannot believe how fast this thread went up.

That's Wario for ya

 

[Mr. Robot]

Rock Dance?

 

[strafer]

Eurovision Song Contest

Flubber could be a bunch of physics labs. Less of a game and more of a bunch of weird tools.
Kinect can see the room, so it could cover the cough in goo. Things like that.

Fantasia game? Given it's Harmonix, and they have a hard time making new engines, and plastic is out, it might just be a dancing game. A traditional dancing game. Ballets, waltzes and shit.

Have Kinect project a hologram to practice waltzing with and you can market to the nervous grade 12 guys who have successfully asked their crush to prom but have no idea what the hell they are doing.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Don't get my hopes up about a Harmonix Fantasia game... too good to be true.

 

[Neuromancer]

Ugh if its Disney I can safely say I'm not interested. Fantasia seems like a good guess though.

I hope its their open world rhythm combat game.

 

[antitrop]

They're working on three games ranging from new music titles to things that seem to be action adventure titles, so take your guess!

Holy shit that's awesome.

 

[BLACK AMERICAN PSYCHO]

It's a shooter

 

[Impeccable]

A game where you travel to Disney movies and fixing the music that has been cursed by Forte.

Wii U exclusive.

 

[Yawnier]

Frequency or Amplitude sequel?

I have no idea what they could be working on.

 

[Totobeni]

smart move if true, they should try making other genres seeing that the music games are in decline.

 

[sqwarlock]

Action adventure game through the worlds of Fantasia? I don't know how this would work though.

 

[honorless]

Angry Old Man's hint in the other thread was that it was related to an F word.

Frequency 2 confirmed. Amplitude's improved UI with the greater emphasis on electronic music its predecessor had. It can come out on whatever consoles HMX likes as long as there is also a PSV release.

I'd be on it like white on rice.

Spoiler

lol this is not happening

 

[FyreWulff]

They're Harmonix Music Systems.

It's a good bet most of the stuff they'll do will have a music relation.

Also, the Disney collab wouldn't be that far off, Harmonix did some stuff for Epcot, so they've worked together before.

Do they own the Frequency/Amplitude IPs? Would love one on Vita.

Nope, Sony does.

 

[The Last Wizard]

it's a mobile game, I mean they don't have a publisher. and who would announce a big new game a week...before...E3.........

Sony, it's got to be sony

 

[plutoknight]

I would buy the SHIT out of a Harmonix-developed Fantasia game. The Fantasia world was the best part of Kingdom Hearts 3D.

That's how much I love Fantasia.

 

[Sonix90]

Please be a sequel to Amplitdue. Though it's probably impossible, I don't think there's much demand for rhythm games without (or even with) peripherals, sadly.

 

[sqwarlock]

I GOT IT!

It's a game where you use a Move controller and/or a Kinect (depending on which systems it comes to) to, get this, conduct the music from the Fantasia movies!

Spoiler

I wouldn't buy this though.

 

[H3xum]

Which Bemani games have not been Westernized yet? Pop'n Music?

I wish beatmania caught on. The song selection was so whack.

It would do better now with online leaderboards and dlc song packs, I'd guess

It caught on well enough to "inspire" the DJ Hero games. Unpopular opinion(?): DJ Hero 1 & 2 were great games.

Wonderbook: Fantasia would be a pretty hilarious let down.

Spoiler

I'd buy it.

 

[opticalmace]

Rock Central? Dance Band?

 

[BigDug13]

It's a different take on SEGA's Typing of the Dead. It's Rocking of the Dead. You have to play the right chords to kill the zombies!

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Aw man. I never knew I wanted a Fantasia game until just now. Done right, it could be pretty awesome.

 

[Squire]

Angry Old Man's hint in the other thread was that it was related to an F word.

I guess we could combine the two and start guessing.

If it isn't their Disney game, I guess this:

 

[eznark]

Fantasia Kinect is going to be awful

 

[Katyusha]

Which Bemani games have not been Westernized yet? Pop'n Music?

Didn't they make a Pop'n Music for the Wii that was geared towards western audiences? I swear I remember seeing it at Best Buy, but then again I could be wrong.

 

[chaostrophy]

Spiritual successors to Freq and Amp plz

I hope! Now that EDM is actually popular in the US I think a game like this would be more successful than last time around.

 

[etrain911]

Spiritual successors to Freq and Amp plz

RockBand Unplugged and RockBand Blitz kinda were that. At least, they played like Frequency and Amplitude.

 

[Various Artists]

Im interested to see how this will shake out.

 

[AnbaLeumas]

I hope it's that action adventure game they teased last year that was going to heavily involve music.

 

[Nirolak]

So I was browsing Twitter and noticed that the social media manager for Disney Games' most recent follow was a Fantasia account.

Putting this in a new thread since even if Harmonix isn't working on one, this suggests a Fantasia game exists.

 

[Drachma]

So probs another Kinect game?

lol, the excitement never starts at Harmonix.

 

[jbug617]

My guess iOS and downloadable for consoles.

 

[Vico]

Is the new gameinformer cover revealed tomorrow, or next week?

 

[GooeyHeat]

It's a different take on SEGA's Typing of the Dead. It's Rocking of the Dead. You have to play the right chords to kill the zombies!

But that literally already exists in plastic instrument form (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4e/Rock_of_the_Dead.jpg)
as well as in the form of a minigame in Rocksmith, for you real guitar players.

I thought he was talking more about F2P in relation to the next title?

I WILL DO MUSHROOMS AND DANCE THE MUSHROOM DANCE

 

[AlStrong]

If only it were something along the threads of LOOM...

 

[Dr. Kenneth Noisewater]

Dance Band.

 

[Deadceptor]

Finally! So excited to see what the guys at Harmonix have been cooking.

 

[Dai101]

Band Central?

 

[Mr.Awesome]

It is Fantasia for Wii U.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]
