Bands that deserve a music game

[Trogdor1138]

KISS, why hasn't it been done? It would be such a perfect band to do.

But my favourites would be: Devo, Ozzy Osbourne, David Bowie

I've spent the last few weeks in my spare time working out guitar and bass patterns for a Rock Band: Kyuss game. It's never going to happen (Although one of their songs was featured in Guitar Hero), but it's something to hope for.

Kyuss sound like this, by the way.


God, I wouldn't want to do that bass solo on expert.

To make it more palatable for the mainstream audiences, you could use some Queens of the Stone Age material too.

*mind explodes*

I know this is cliché and all, but that is the best idea ever conceived and because of it you have won the internet. For realsies.

 

[Nazulu]

Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Yes, because symphonic rock would be very interesting. The plastic guitars have buttons like a key board so I reckon it would work perfectly well.

 

[Miumaru]

Muse, System of a Down, The Strokes, The White Stripes (doubt they would though)
The Ramones.

 

[CobraX]

Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold, Billy Talent, AC/DC, Gorillaz, Judas Priest, Lordi, Smashing Pumpkins.

The only band existing without one that I feel deserves one right now is The Who. Perhaps the third most influential band of all time behind The Stones and The Beatles.

I'd also like to say that I don't feel any modern bands should even be considered. These kinds of games should be (and so far for the most part have been) exclusive to bands that changed music. Avenged Sevenfold would almost make the list, but they have not been around long enough for their legacy to be solidified.

First off did you know that Rush is 3rd best when it comes to the most albums that consecutivly go gold, only Behind The Stones and The Beatles. Just a random fun fact.

Also I think just any band that will sell copies of the game and have a good enough and big enough catalog of songs to pick from should be eligible for their own game.

Either way i think both Beatles and Green Day fit your criteria. Like them or not bands like Green day had a major impact on Punk Rock (Just look at all the American Idiot copycats) and as for the Beatles....well their the God damn Beatles!

 

[Nouw]

Guitar Hero:Rhapsody and Luca Turilli

Fuck Yeah!

Or Rock Band:Coldplay

Or RockBand:GORILLAZ!!! It'd kick ass. I dibs Noodle

 

[Baradiel]

Queen.

Nuff said. They just should make one.

Just wish they hadnt made Greenday. Everyone had stopped remembering them in my area.

 

[BlumiereBleck]

Rock Band: Avenged Sevenfold
Rock Band: Dashboard Confessional
Rock Band: Craig Owens
Rock Band: Taking Back Sunday
Rock Band: 30 Seconds To Mars
Rock Band: Buddy Holley
Rock Band: Relient K
All need to be made.

 

[BlumiereBleck]

AVENGED SEVENFOLD

HELL YEAHS! That needs to be made now!

 

[Glamorgan]

Well, The Beatles already have one, so I'm happy with taht.

 

[Noala]

maybe a Guitar Hero: RATM
most prog rock bands would fit nicely too

 

[Illusive DiZ]

Rock Band: Disturbed 'nuff said.

 

[badpun]

Smashing Pumpkins
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Those would be good but a Sonic Youth one would be best though i'm not sure how they'll translate some of the sonic textures and freakouts into button codes for rockband or guitar Hero =P

 

[Nigh Invulnerable]

You all FAIL MUSIC FOREVER because we're 3 pages in and I'm the first to mention Black Sabbath. Hell, there's enough Ozzy era Sabbath material for a whole RB/GH game. Then add some Dio....

 

[ca_jas]

U2. Why U2? Because they are one of the few bands to stay together so long, albeit too long. Their early stuff was kick ass.

 

[MrShowerHead]

Rock Band: Disturbed 'nuff said.

Ninja'd

For now, I have to keep playing Stricken on Guitar Hero 3

 

[Corven]

Devin Townsend, it would be awesome!

 

[The_Deleted]

SOAD and Maiden get my vote.
But the Maiden DLC is bloody tough.

 

[Lem0nade Inlay]

Led Zeppelin all the way.

and another, Gorillaz.

The only bad thing would maybe be not enough guitar in their songs.

yes? no?

Yes, Gorillaz! It doesn't matter if a lot of them don't have guitar, I'd be happy to play parts with keyboards/drums/turn-tables etc.

As long as they had Stop the Dams on it...

 

[irequirefood]

Opeth, dear god Opeth. I have 9 and a half hours of their music, so they're not short on material. Plus tonnes of talent, and difficult songs to play.

God yes. The songs have great variety in difficulty for any instrument, and are just so beautiful to listen to.

I want a Tool game specifically for the drums. That or Between the Buried and Me.
