Copypasted directly from my blog nobody reads.
I'm sad that the Guitar Hero franchise ended, but I've thought of something that might rejuvenate the series--a game that, rather than focusing on classic music of days gone by, instead contains more modern songs by people of internet and gaming culture. I would buy that game on launch, instead of waiting for the price to go down like I usually do. Some examples of songs that could be good:
Talkin That Shit & Sarge's Blues -- Jeff Williams
The Ballad of Clay Carmine, Santiago's Lament, The Grind -- Miracle of Sound
Slow In Reverse -- The Keep (AKA Corridor Digital)
Noob Slayer -- Freddie Wong (Yes, it was written for Rock Band, but shut up I'm trying to revive a franchise)
Dead Space 2 LITERAL -- Toby Turner
Le Internet Medley -- The Gag Quartet
In Search of Diamonds -- Dead Workers Party/The Shaft
Rocket Man -- Performed by the Dead Workers Party/Control Point (okay, yeah, a piano song, but it's franchise CPR time)
Please, post song suggestions that you think would fit, and your feedback: would you buy this game, and why? I chose not to include a poll because I'd rather see users explain their opinions rather than just check a box and say nothing.
