Maybe this is less of an issue once you form a band with friends in “Rock Band,” but what’s up with the freaks you end up being partnered with when your playing on Solo Tour? Here I’ve taken the time to meticulously mold my rockstar avatar into a gorgeous, athletic male (much like myself) and I end up joining a band fronted by some lumberjack hillbilly, a female bassist from GWAR and a guitarist who should have joined up with REO Speedwagon. Well, this must be how Fall Out Boy feels…
Looking back at my gaming wish list, I see that while I’ve managed to purchase each of them when they launched, finding time to play them all has been another matter. Here’s how well each game has faired in my console:
Ugh. I think I’m gonna hurl…
“Bioshock” took me a bit longer to finish because it frightened me. Now “Half-Life 2″ of “The Orange Box” is going to take longer to finish because it makes me ill. It seems to create the same sense of motion sickness I previously experience in “Marathon: Durandal.”
This game has now jumped up a couple notches for me. IGN posted a preview of the World Tour mode for “Rock Band.” I found the video preview to be most exciting. Cool stuff was shown like how you can customize your character, create a band logo (which sounds similar to creating art in “Forza 2“) and how you unlock songs.
