Good to hear. :) They really need to go back to the drawing board on that franchise. I'm not apposed to them releasing a new game per-say, but the franchise was stale,boring and ultimately bad in general. I didn't even get around to the last one but I heard enough to make me not want to bother. Sad when you consider how good it all started out.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

I haven't liked a skateboard game since pro skater 3 (underground is an exception however). I actually enjoy guitar hero over rock band, because of their controllers and the way the notes are displayed are better in guitar hero IMO. I have guitar hero 1-4 and metallica, and I plan to get 5/warriors of rock on ps2 eventually.

That was Activision who did all the stand-alone band games. Harmonix's band games were all fully exportable aside from the Beatles, and that one's cause the Beatles are assholes.
Shit, I meant NeverSoft.
*smacks forehead*

EDIT: Yes, I do realize that The Beatles had a Rock Band (therefore Harmonix) game and not a Guitar Hero (Neversoft) game.

Helter Skelter is one of their better ones. My personal favorites are I Want You (She's So Heavy), Come Together, and Hey Bulldog, among others.

I really don't know what it is, but Hey Jude is one of my least favorite Beatles songs. It's a shame, too, as it's the most played on the radio.

Did I mention The Beatles: Rock Band was one of the very few non-Nintendo-produced games I've gotten on Day One?

Thank. God.

Every Tony Hawk game after Tony Hawk 3 got progressively worse and the same thing with Guitar Hero 2. It sure did take a long time but I am so happy this finally happened.

This is exactly what happened to 3DO after they made ten thousand Army Men games. :roll:

It's the song at the end of 8-Bit D&D.
