Message from Harmonix regarding this footage

Hey all

This video was taken from a conference where attendees are generally encouraged to be casual and show off the new stuff they are working on privately. Unfortunately, an attendee broke the conference rules and videotaped the talk. The footage was made from an old build of the game quite some time ago for internal purposes- basically to get people working on the game excited. The song was one we have considered for the game but haven’t locked down, and you may have noticed that the footage was made so long ago that the people in the video are playing old instruments and prototypes. I guess what I am saying is- this isn’t official and doesn’t really reflect the final game at all. We’ll be releasing a lot of info next week from much newer builds of the game with finalized songs.

Rock,

Sean

that actually looks intense

looks difficult.

that looks fun.

holy shit.

I forsee the end of friendships with this game.

holy fuck... boner.

When does this come out??????

Yeah I think I stick to my serious guitar/bass playing GH skills, and leave the drum and vocals to my friends that are already excited for those...

i don't see how you judge someone's singing?

this looks so much fun and I can't wait to play the drums because I'm good enough at the guitar
The singing will be like the Karoke (spell??) games for the PS2 and that previous comment is right, alot of fights between friends will happen for a missing a note

I think this looks really really cool. But cost will be a major factor for this game.

yeah so man faux-bands will be breaking up once this is release. "DUDE YOU SUCKED ON THE G&R TRACK, your SO out unless you get your shit together."

I'm in.

For those who are unsure of how vocals are done: on the top of the screen are bars to judge your pitch with the words displayed under it.
