Band Hero To Bring Pop Music To Your Plastic This November

My question is WHY THE FUCK IS JUST A GIRL NOT ON ROCK BAND.

I like how GH is being milked, but somehow rockband is exempt from that because is HMX. Because Lego Rock Band, Beatles Rock Band, and upcoming Pearl Jam project for Rockband, and weekly dlc is not milking? Is music games, is just new skins, and new tracks for both series, if you like the genre is good.. if you don't like the genre then do not buy it.

Ugh.

" My question is WHY THE FUCK IS JUST A GIRL NOT ON ROCK BAND. "

Day 1: I buy Band Hero
Day 2: Kill Self
Day 3: Profit?
Day 4: Jesus Christ resurrects me to play more Band Hero.
Day 5: I call him an asshole.
Day 6: Jesus Christ sends me to hell.
Day 7: Satan busts out with Band Hero.
Day 8: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Go check the Music Store one more time... "

They need to suck it up and make one of these that lets you import your own tunes. Yes they would loose out of dlc sales but they could make it up with dlc packs of new singles. Im sure record labels would pay to get the latest emo-tastic single into these kind of games.

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

As if there weren't enough crap songs in the music games we have now.

A pox upon you tweens!

Band Hero 4: Miley Cyrus has already been announced by Activision.

The only good thing about this is that this shit will be kept out of regular guitar hero. Goddamn indie/emo killed World Tour for me.

Jackson 5 gives me hope. if it includes (but i HIGHLY FUCKING DOUBT, considering the cost!) that some Michael Jackson tunes make their way into this.

Why not release a Activision dev team simulator game where you try to make the shittiest iteration of a once loved music game? Now THAT would sell

First, 3 of the 5 songs are (or soon will be) in Rock Band.  Second, why the hell isn't this stuff DLC?  Third, I'd love to meet a 4-man Guitar Hero band that hot.

" The songs are really gonna suck on everything bar the vocals. If they manage to pull that part off well, then who knows? It might be an interesting game.For the first ever time, Im disagreeing with Jeff. "

Slated for a Q4 2010 for all you Cyrus fans! I bet your all stoked!

I will never buy a "Hero" game again, as giving money to activision is just fueling shit biscuits like this.
It just staggers how cool Harmonix's Beatles game is compared to anything from the "Hero" series XD

Huh? The music was already pretty fucking poppy if you ask me.

Watch next year we will have the ultra-nerfed and highly ironically named "Brütal Hero" after Brütal Legend comes out and resurrects more forgotten music.

Wow Activision really is the new EA

I wonder if the DS version wil drop the retarded add on peripheral crap. 

Trailer:

Band Hero

Anger Anger AAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNGEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRR

Yay!

It is at this point that I'm embarrassed to remember that Blizzard is associated with Activision.

Activision can haz large amounts of fail. too much fail, too late.

No...

My sentiments exactly. People think that some how HMX is god, and only that company should be making games. Lego Rock Band is just as much a milker as Band Hero. "

I see your point and you're making sense. The key point, however, is that the Rock Band games are stellar titles. The GH games since RB launched have all been clones or crap. The bottom line is people actually want more Rock Band. That's why we don't consider it milking. Additionally, by the end of this year, there will be 15 GH games on the market, not counting the ones Harmonix made. There might be like 5 Rock Bands. 

EDIT: Also, Traveller's Tales, the team that does all the other Lego games, is in charge of Lego Rock Band. It's Harmonix's brand and they're on board, but TT came up with it and is mostly creating it...from what I heard...on this site...and others...

here we go...

" @FlipperDesert: 

I picked up the No Doubt greatest hits pack for Rock Band, and the drum parts are surprisingly interesting. Some of them are downright HARD, too. I'm looking at you, "New". Although, "Excuse Me, Mr." is a bit frenetic, too.

"

if band hero is all based on pop music i'm pretty sure they might put Katy Perry's songs on that game.

here's some best songs from katy perry,


-waking up in vegas

-hot n cold

-i kissed a girl (maybe) :P

Um...

Guitar Hero already is Band Hero. It's packed full of lame pop songs that will probably be in the full Band Hero game. They could just as well call it 'Guitar Hero: Slightly less satanic' or whatever.

So what is next? Music Hero? Instrument Hero? Heroic Hero?

I can't take it any more FUCK GUITAR HERO.

Guitar Hero 1,2, and 80s: Awesome games, made by Harmonix. Sure 80s was overpriced, but whatever
Guitar Hero 3: Harmonix is gone, isn't as good, but is still pretty fun to play
Guitar Hero Aerosmith: Lacks much replay value and songs, but it's only $20 now and is like Guitar Hero 3, so whatever
Guitar Hero World Tour: Band is nice, but the drums kind of failed, but if you were lucky to get working drums, the game could be entertaining
Guitar Hero Metallica: The Best Activision has done so far. Take most of the big problems in World Tour and chuck them out the window and replace the songs with Metallica songs, and there you go
Guitar Hero Smash Hits: Not much different from Metallica besides the look and the songs
Guitar Hero 5: Looks interesting with it's new features and it looks to be better than World Tour
DJ Hero: A little skeptical, but the gameplay looks interesting and the songs don't look too bad
Guitar Hero Van Halen: Looks like Guitar Hero 5 with Van Halen songs, which isn't necessarily a bad thing
Band Hero:...WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3rd Hero release in 3 months, with a 4th in December...that has to be some kind of record.
