Alright, we've played the Hell out of what has become a renaissance in gaming - the music-based band titles. We love them. Shit, just three years ago it was a niche deal where some of us might have been ribbed for admitting to play Guitar Hero. Now discussions over set-lists, DLC music, and guitar controllers are commonplace in this forum. So after playing the Rock Bands and the Guitar Heroes, what's next. Where do we want Rock Band 3 and Guitar Hero 5 (World Tour 2?) to go as far as features? I mean really... music is no longer an issue. I actually have this thought that all the most wanted acts will be signed in the next two or three years. We used to day dream about what bands we want to see in these games but a lot of them have been delivered, or will be. The only thing left to speculate and think about is feature sets.
Rather than make two wishlists for RB3 and GH5 I think it's better to mash them up in one thread. You could split up your ideas in two lists or, and this can only happen with these sort of games, lay down general ideas that could work for both games. Me - I like to think certain things work better for one game over the other. And here weeeeeeeee........ go. Rock Band 3: Of course I don't actually own RB2. But I've played it multiple times and know/sampled most of the feature sets. Still, if I hit a beat that's actually in RB2 - kick me in the mouth and correct me.
General:
Guitar Hero wishlist later. |

If you have a gig of like 3 songs or more, have like an intro before you come out like the lights go out and some pyro goes off or some shit, and your group comes out to the roar of the crowd. And on your last song have an "encore effect" like in Guitar Hero, where fireworks go off, stage effects and stuff.

More hardcore metal.
And maybe Guitar Hero:Montsers of Metal pack. I know the fanbase isn't all that wide but I would love to see a game with 40+ tracks from bands like God Forbid, Hatebreed, etc. Okay so maybe "Monsters of Metal" wasn't the greatest moniker. Im just sayign |

I agree wit the headset mic idea.
Why can't they just let you use the one that you use for online play? LIke is it that hard? |

Why not be able to play the bass from the drum controller at the same time too? Kind of like a hokey one-man band type of thing?

Hmmm...My post must have been eaten.
Bottom line: Fuck the Power Rangers and anyone who takes that theme as serious music. Also, not much of a chance for Princes. I don't think it'd translate well to Rock Band. |

I still think that if the Power Rangers theme was a real song with actual lyrics by a real band, it'd be a #1 single.

Zeo era (PR Season 4). I won't get into plots and such but his music was badass. Trying to create a cover in GHWT.

Yeah, the big swerve was Billy getting the powers but Jason came back and got them. I would have found it justice that Jason come back and regain leadership of the team as Tommy did years earlier as the White Ranger. Despite being the most powerful (fucking pyramid for a zord!?), he was still second fiddle to Tommy.

We need 24 buttons! Only them can we simulate a guitar! Six rows! A strum bar that you need to pick! Oh, and you need to be able to break strings!

I would like to see, during setlists, the game will switch out singers. So if you were playing 'Cool for Cats', and then you're playing 'I Think I'm Paranoid', you're not stuck with Hillbilly Jim singing Shirley Manson's song...

Really, I'm pretty much set on stuff. I think some DLC (cheap or free) for more clothing options would be cool, but really, RB2 is damn near perfect in my book

Band vs Band in GHWT is gay. If it's Band vs Band, I wanna see 8 fuckers on stage rocking out, not the normal display while the CPU compares stats in real time. That's almost misleading.

I'm a little late to the party, but the theme songs to several super sentai shows (Power Rangers for you uncultured bastards) have made it to top ten status in Japan. Like, the most recent show--which we won't be getting a butchered and translated version of until next month or so, I think--...well, its theme song hit #1. I can scrounge it up later if anyone gives a shit.

"RPM" right? I never heard any of the Sentai themes but I here they are quite good OP and ED themes on par with some anime stuff. I'm a PR purist so I only look up Sentai to see what next year's theme will be. The Sentai plots are also better I hear. The only time PR plots held up was the Mighty Morphin days when we had years to build characters.
