keyboards?

[olithrow]

it would be cool to have keyboards for deep purple songs and stuff, because on guitar hero 2 on the 360 i was playing hush by deep purple, and there was a keyboard solo but no keyboard!

I don't see how keyboards were left out. They were absolutely critical in so many good rock bands from the 60's and 70's.

keyboard wouldnt be very good, it would be like hitting the guitar on its side, which would be quite boring seeing as you dont strum a keyboard, you strike it

this means that you can use both hands covering all 5 buttons and meaning you dont have to move you hands up/down "frets"

to have a good keyboard simulation, you would need quite a large controller for the many buttons, and a big enough screen to display all the notes at once, so if you tried it along with the other instruments the notes would be hard to read as the notes would be too small

sorry about the bad explanation but you should know what im talking about

overall it really wouldnt be a challenge with 5 buttons and anymore buttons and it would get to small and hard to read

You'd have to think about it. It'd be way too huge on the screen. 88 keys takes up a hell of a lot of space. Even if you made it smaller. Like, made it so there's only one octave, instead of all of them. Then the keyboard would be way too small.

The one octave keyboard would be the only one that would fit on screen, everything else would make the screen WAY too busy. More than it already is. But if you made it into one octave on the keyboard, the keyboard itself would be too tiny.
