From the sound of the title and Konami's rhythm game nature it sure sounds like Konami is stirring up something new for the Xbox 360 rhythm genre. The title made a few waves online after being posted on Australia's ratings board Web page, but at this moment there are no current details for the title. Being announced hand-in-hand with another Xbox 360 title, Domino Master, many people are already speculating the title will be an Xbox Live Arcade release.
Oh, but it won't be Pop'n Music, it'll be Button Revolution. They'll get rid of Nyami and Mimi and all of those other characters and replace them with generic people with Terry Bogard hats, they'll have a soundtrack made up of bad covers of mostly bad songs, and they'll use many features from Guitar Hero and Rock Band to make sure the game has no individuality whatsoever.
This particular game is apparently being made by Voltex, makers of the little-below-mediocre Frogger 2 (the one on Xbox Live, not Threedeep or Swampy's Revenge).
