Hey everybody, it's Rock Band in the news! You might not agree with the article but, I thought I should make it known anyways. I searched and didn't get any results about this in the forum so hopefully this isn't old news already! The article itself is dated yesterday.

May you enjoy it xP. And may it spur some conversation.

(Edit) Personally, I just love how without any new releases in 2 years it's still making it into headlines. And it's always fun to hear about different perspectives. This one is new to me, to boot.

Aaand I forgot about Blitz. Well, you know what I mean.

Thanks for sharing the article - it was a good read.

Viewing RB through the lens of emotion created via performance simulation helps explain a lot of my reaction to RB3. The shortened tour, less realistic characters, loss of venue control and heavy individual focus weakened the simulation and sadly killed the RB magic for my group of friends.

I've since moved on to Rocksmith and taken up bass & guitar (already play jazz saxophone), but I miss that special feeling of having a group of friends over, some musicians and others not, and being able to jam together with RB into the wee hours of the night. Those were some good times.

Thanks to Rigopulos and Egozy for following their dream and making it possible.
