they should painstakingly recreate famous shows and let you do drugs before you go on
Does nobody realise that the first-person angle is most likely for the new VR platforms?
Imagine four of you standing in your room with VR headsets on, playing instruments in front of a big crowd.
New level of immersion in 'live' music, yadda yadda.
I don't like these games too much, but that prospect is interesting.
VR is a pretty terrible idea for music games IMO. The idea of standing in a VR music arena is nice and all, but where does one fit the actual interface of the game? The notes will literally come flying at your face.
There was always a part of me that was disappointed with the move to master tracks instead of covers, I always liked to think of covers of covers being tradition across Harmonix's guitar games.

Of course, the pros massively outweigh the cons for actual recordings, but that, plus the additional solos that some songs added were always great.
Train Kept a' Rollin' in RB1 is hilarious because of what happened when you tried to turn the vocals down. All hail Fake Steven Tyler.
I feel like the time for music games have passed.

As someone who started to learn guitar and have been playing modestly for about 2 years I have got to admit...
the rendition of the UI and button placements may seem alien to most people but in terms of mimicking chord shapes I can see it working out well. It will add a layer of difficulty thats for sure, but it will "feel" even more like your playing.
I would even argue it may help with hand dexterity and muscle formation for when your ready to move onto rocksmith or practice on your own.
furthermore, it seems that can VERY EASILY make it play like the guitar hero we all know so dont sweat it.
I can imagine it being top down first person so you're looking at your guitar, but I expect your head to look up frequently.
Guitar Hero: The Who, experience the thrill of buying new instruments after every show and spending nights in hospitals because your drummer took horse tranquillizers and/or tried to blow up the band.i actually really love this.
doing rails off the guitar neck
first person drinking and puking
fully destructible hotel room post-show
groupie minigame
customize your coke nail and herpes scars in the powerful character creator
add an Awards Show level to crash as DLC
Yeah, where it wasn't otherwise possible to get a song I didn't mind a cover as long as it was good. I can understand why they went to masters/re-record/live only, because it gives off a more premium feel / slightly easier to handle the rights, but still.
I actually find re-records like the Styx tracks more annoying because even though it's technically the actual band, I'd rather have someone trying to sound like the original singer instead of a different singer entirely.

YI-KIKIKIYI
but if i wanted to play a real guitar i'd play rocksmith. i didn't play ddr to show off at the club
Freestyle Games is an amazing developer, I'm not worried. Both DJ Hero games played great.
If this is how it turns out to be, then it looks like you only have to use three fingers to play. That seems boring.my guess

The 12 buttons idea sounds super complicated to perform and read on, assuming I'm imagining it right.
I imagine it like this
UUUUUU
UUUUUU
I just wonder how much of the DJ Hero team is still there though you know? Its not like they've been working on this since DJ Hero 2, so I'm sure a lot of people either left or were let go

Alrighty, info I getting from my systems at work(GameStop):
One Sku: $99.99 (game and guitar)
It's on PS4, PS3, XB1, 360 and Wii U.
Looks like my theory is way off. Good news is thought that two games ate probably gonna be announced soon
If I remember correctly, the Wii version of GH3 was by far the best-selling one, so I think they should put it on Wii U.The Guitar Hero audience was really big on Wii, so it's good to see that Activision recognized that. It's not going to explode the series the same way, but there were a lot of loyalists on that platform last gen.

I'd understand if you had said guitar/band games but music games in general? They've always been niche. DDR, Rock Band, Guitar Hero; they all have had their time in the limelight and enjoyed mainstream appeal for a few years. Just because the genre has titles with waxing and waning popularity does not mean that the genre is dead.
Amplitude's Kickstarter succeeding, even just barely, is a testament to that.

Between now and ten minutes if the French NDA is to be believedWon't this get announced today sometime?

In 4 minutes, supposedly.
In about 5 minutes, isn't it?
The weird thing about the Styx songs is that the lead vocals on those were done by the same guy that sang them in the first place (Tommy Shaw). Either he was just not interested in anything other than the paycheck, or Dennis DeYoung added a lot more with the backing vocals than anyone ever thought.
The worst cover for me was the re-recording for Hair of the Dog. Holy shit.
Wait, it's live action? Why do I get the feeling that this might be a money saving move.
