"Rock Revolution" Announced by Konami

News | May 19, 2008 8:52 am
Never one to be left out of the loop, Konami it seems is jumping on the Rock Band bandwagon. Announcing "Rock Revolution" at their Gamer's Night 2008, it will be next to directly compete with Rock Band.

Being developed by the same people who did SingStar, their are only a few details released thus far, as well as a couple screenshots courtesy of x360a.

-40 songs on the disc, with DLC tracks planned
-Record your own songs in a "Jam Session" (8 separate tracks)
-Online co-op, versus, and battle of the bands modes
-Large drum set with six pads, plus pedal

All released screenshots can be viewed here. For the drum set, feast your eyes:



With Rock Band, the Guitar Hero 4 announcement, and now this, your 360 is going to span an entire room to contain all these drumsets and instruments. I think this is a little too much. Perhaps I will just wait until Harmonix releases a patch to include a Record Your Own Song option.

Dear lord...

What I don't understand is why companies are all of the sudden jumping in to the ensemble music with both feet? There was no attempt to horn in on the Guitar Hero Cash Machine until Harmonix (the originator) decided to do Rock Band....

I personally think that Guitar hero should have stopped with the guitar, singing would have been fine, but leave the drums to Rock band.
And this, well it looks like DDR with drums. Oh well
Rhythm games are taking mainstage?

Yeah, and there's another one coming out now as well. I forget the name of it...but were going to have four different games and likely none of them will be compatible with each other.

Yeah, I'm almost done with hard on RB. I lack about 10 songs. I took me a while to get through the Queens of the Stone Age. If they keep adding more buttons to these drums I'm gonna have a hard time with easy mode, lol.
