Modus Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Ubisoft is making a game for real electric guitars.. those things that have strings instead of buttons. Seems like it's designed to teach people to play so if you have a guitar and already know how to play, Ubisoft says fuck off. If you don't own a real guitar, you can also fuck off. That leaves 2 people in my state. As Kotaku said, if you have a guitar like.. lying around because you're a quitter like me, this is your game. Or you could buy the $200 bundle and in a week you'll be Cerrax. In three, Sixto. http://kotaku.com/#!5782011/ubisoft-did-not-get-the-memo-that-guitar-hero-was-dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PriZm Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 it's not so much that they suck but they encourage racism against japanese with their anti-weeaboo sentiment also their articles are nothing but troll baiting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I agree, that's why I'm loathe to actually read any of it other than take the initial title, then look it up on another site. At least they know their demographic and what gets them the hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PriZm Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 true also regarding the game, it might actually be pretty fun. i don't see how people who can already play guitar would not enjoy this game, because i'm pretty excited to see how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashamee Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Not to mention that a lot of their articles are often rife with grammatical and spelling errors. Does nobody on their staff know how to properly write an article? It's pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inimitable Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 "Rock Band is on hiatus." WTF? New DLC and RBN songs are still released every week, and the new Squier guitar controller was recently released (for real guitar action just like this game is aiming for). Sounds like this game already has a whole lot of catching up to do. Hopefully it'll at least be better than Power Gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiyobi Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Huh, I didn't know this topic was all about Kotaku bashing. I'm rather skeptical about the game. Didn't they get the memo about Power Gig flopping? Also, doesn't RB3 already have this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game is supposed to actually show you strings and bends and palm mutes and (insert all other guitar terminology here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy In Rubber Suit Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Yeah but with Rock Band 3 aren't you still just pushing button patterns?This game is supposed to actually show you strings and bends and palm mutes and (insert all other guitar terminology here) If you have the Pro Squire guitar, Rock Band 3 will do just that. Well, not entirely certain about string bends. The notes are read like tablature traveling at you. There are also training sections that cover basic chords and scales. I don't know how in-depth UbiSoft's game will go in music theory. But if it helps a kid pick up a guitar and play music. Then so be it.
