Band Hero: "Pop Hits" Trailer

Chances the competition winner who gets to meet Taylor Swift won't do a Kanye West impression? Not very high.

The performance of the band members just looks bad here, like they had no idea how to really make singers look like they're really singing the song and are too concerned with animations that go a bit overboard for what is needed.

And now it begins....

its will be edition after edition

metal hero, pop hero, tell us what songs you want on and we will burn on to a disc ...hero

first i could only blame nintendo for stupid family games now everyone is at it

Milk that cow Activision, milk it dry.

Neversoft and Activision are pathetic when it comes to these games

I just threw up in my mouth a little...

" I would like to "meet" Taylor Swift.  Heyo! "

This is so inconceivably lame, it hurts. It appears they've found a way to release Guitar Hero 6 mere weeks after Guitar Hero 5 without actually calling it that. I've been wondering what they're going to do when they run out of good music, and now I see. All they had to do was find some shitty songs to stuff in there, give it a half-assed "new name" and voila! Guitar Hero 6, featuring all the trash I'm sick of hearing on the radio.

I would like to "meet" Taylor Swift.
 
Heyo!

The family demographic could give a fuck less if it ripped off Guitar Hero. They want a game with fun wholesome songs for the whole family. I'm not gonna have this game in my bachelor pad, but I can easily see my uncle buy it for my younger cousins so they can sing and dance. Do you think the dad will go "DAMMIT! WHERE'S MY SHREDDING RAINING BLOOD SOLO!?" or go "Hey Susie, which song should I start for you and your friends? ABC or Walking On Sunshine?" "

So it's trying to be singstar?
 
There's so many things wrong with this commercial I can't even start to list them.

Bollocks.

Someone make it stop

My wife will love this game LOL!

Virtual Taylor Swift is going to get her virtual mic stolen away by Virtual Kanye West.

Already done, but screw it:
 
Yo, Taylor Swift, I'ma let you finish but I just gotta say that Kurt Cobain had the best Guitar Hero video of all time.  I'm just sayin'.
 
So I'd never actually heard a Taylor Swift song before this.  I found the experience to be...underwhelming.

ZomG I GeT t0 plAy AS TAyLoR SWiFf nOw I lIKE HAVTA PLaY it My Bf IS like OMG Im SOOO BuyING this LAWLZ 
 

Holy crap, what the hell are they doing?? This has got to be the worst line up of songs for any game, ever. Seriously. 
The only good thing about this is that there probably wont be any more No Doubt in Guitar Hero. No Doubt sucked even when they were playing stuff resembeling rock in the 90´s, and their new stuff is just GOD AWFUL. Hey baby hey baby hey

I love that Taylor Swift is in a game....  Kanye...man!  Couldn't you have held off the media coverage for a hurricane disaster or something?

I already joined the band. The ROCK BAND.

ok so GH5 gets johnny cash and Kurt Cobain and band hero dead avatar is Michale Jackson that's sweet i wonder which Michale did they chose there so many !!!

Secretly I'm hoping that 'Walking on Sunshine' was being played on Expert+ in that.

This could actually be a good thing, it may allow more decent tracks to enter the Guitar Hero franchaise and the crap be dumped on to Band Hero.

" I think this may flop. The family demographic it's aimed for will probably dismiss it as a GH rip off. "

Who the hell is Taylor Swift?

" Please, Activision, stop.  Think up of some other franchise. I dont care if you milk it dry, just think of something else. "

...I thought I saw some GH5 Pandora/Johnny in that trailer... looking EXTREMELY out of place. 
 
I don't think the artstyle goes well with the game at all. The characters just look awkward. Hell, even Taylor Swift's backup band seemed really weird compared to her model (which looks terrifying).  
 
I may be a whore for rhythm games, but geez, at least make this look different in ways more than colour. 

Virtual Taylor doesn't even compare.

" I WANT KANYE WEST TO COME ONTO STAGE AND TALK ABOUT HOW GREAT BEYONCE IS WHEN YOU LOSE W/ TAYLOR SWIFT. "

Jesus, fuck Activision.

I WANT KANYE WEST TO COME ONTO STAGE AND TALK ABOUT HOW GREAT BEYONCE IS WHEN YOU LOSE W/ TAYLOR SWIFT.

HaHaHa this game is going to sell even MORE copies since the Taylor Swift incident, I wonder how many people are going to try and create a virtual Kanye West lol

pass

Well my younger sister will be all over this. She loves Taylor Swift. God help me.

Beyonce had the greatest trailer of all-time. Just saying...

Please, Activision, stop.  Think up of some other franchise. I dont care if you milk it dry, just think of something else.

" THIS IS NOT THE ENDURANCE RUN! "

No matter how many of these games you make I just will not buy one.

Wow, way to go Activision.  You managed to make the same game for the 100th time!!!

Well, Activision will be rich for many years to come.  Can you imagine the number of teenage girls who will be buying this game?

Well there's a music game I won't be getting this year 
Less plastic junk yayyay

I will only buy this game if I have the cameo of Kanye West.

the game should allow you to interrupt other people's performances online, to add to the Taylor Swift realism

Beyonce's trailer was wayyyyy better.

hmm

Just because Taylor Swift told me so, I watched this.  Although CG Kanye would say Beyonce's trailer was better.
