Konami what the hell were you thinking?



Well at E3 this year, 2008, Konami unveiled yet another music game involving a guitar, yes a guitar. It is going to be called rock revolution and I assume will be out for the consoles and play much like guitar hero and rock band. BUT WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING KONAMI. What makes you think anyone would go into Bestbuy and go, hey there is guitar hero, o there is rock band, never mind that hell I’m getting ROCK REVOLUTION. What makes Konami think consumers would rather just skip the entire selection they are already familiar with, and just get some new thing called Rock Revolution. I sure know I would because it has such a cool and original name! From the E3 showing the game play looks hard and confusing (the executive failed her own game, imagine if in call of duty showing, the player died in the first minute.) with vertical and hard to see “buttons” cascading on a virtual guitar. Besides the guitar isn’t even compatible with the guitar hero or rock band guitar. That’s like having the Xbox release a Wii controller, there is no need for it and that’s what the Wii is for. (O wait, I forgot.) It’s not that this game is horrible, but we already have this, we don’t need another. Konami just what on earth were you thinking?
