Here it is, Rock Revolution.

Well, one thing's for sure. It sure as hell isn't Guitar Freaks and Drummania.

Konami lets you join a rock band in Rock Revolution - PS3 Fanboy

We'll see, for all we know it could just be a reskin with localized content

Edit: not enough drum lanes, ruh roh

Its great how they say Konami is jumping on the bandwagon when they were the first to start such a game...I get a kick out of people being uninformed of such things, but then the casual gamer probably doesn't care about such things. =/

They aren't uninformed. They say that Konami is jumping on the bandwagon because...Well I mean, LOOK AT IT! This isn't US GF/DM, this is a ripoff of GH/RB. They're jumping on that bandwagon.

So the drums will have 7 (6 and the foot) and guitar has 5? This won't be what Bemani fans want, and even I won't buy this. Unless they include songs from videogames like Beatmania and DDR, I have no incentive to buy this. IF they do put in a timing system (it can be loose for casual, but at least put one in) and some Konami... wait I still wouldn't buy it. Haven't liked rock music, and this still won't encourage me to start.

Oh, ok, I misinterpreted it then, well they are trying to appeal to an American audience

BemaniAK · 05-15-2008, 09:58 PM

I can think of a better drumming/guitar game that konami can release in america.
konami's being like nintendo with mother 3.
they know for a fact that the game would sell like hotcakes in the US, europe and australia but no, they just give us a big "FUCK YOU!" and continue to please japan over and over again.

lol Well I had a hard time finding and it was sure flying somewhere because it wasn't on the shelves.

I don't really like rock that much but I'll take a look at the game. I hope people aren't just like. "OH, GH ripoff". I like the fact that you can have "jam sessions". That sure was a No in GH and RB. Now if you can make you Jam sessions have a note chart (like the remix mode in Amplitude and FreQuency" then THAT will make it a bit more fun.

I actually had an idea like that GFDMDDRIIDX thing. I mean, that might be cool for arcades. Someone's playing the music on a IIDX controller, someone's singing it, and someone's dancing. So the dancer's depending on the IIDX and KR people to play and sing the song right otherwise it ...well... won't sound right. That'd be really cool.

Man, this drum controller BETTER be godly if they say it's the best.

Chances are they'll have a mixture of US and Jrock songs though. I hope they succeed in this. Yeah, I know it's not for all the normal Bemani fans, but it's still something rhythm which I like because I like rhythm games in general so I hope it succeeds. And you never know, if it does pass, then maybe Konami may do some more stuff with that and other games in the US.

Also... Konami continues pleasing Japan because it's a Japanese company with an American branch.... so... the real question is this.

Will there be a JP version of Rock Revolution and if so, how will that one be?
