I never played the original

In fact, I was most intrigued by that flexibility to change the song and make it your own. Each song has a backing track carrying a beat and a melody throughout, but when you play, your ship travels along one of several different lanes.

Each of these lanes corresponds to a different part of the song, such as drum fills, vocals, or bass. When you do well, your lane autofills and continues to play that instrument, freeing you up to move to a different instrument of your choice. This creates memorable moments when vocals swell and dominate the song, the bass thumps especially strongly in your ears, or a driving drum section takes over. It doesn't seem like much, but this creativity allows each song to feel a little different every time you play it.

I had no idea how Amplitude would play. I have none of the nostalgia for the original that drove so many Kickstarter donations. In Amplitude, however, I found an enjoyable game that scratched an itch I didn't even know I had. It gave me the sort of personal rhythm experience that I've been longing for, and enough freedom of expression to make me feel like I was a part of making the song.

Posted by Marc Flurry on Jun 08, 2015 // Drool: This is Marc and Brian from Drool. For the past few years, weve been making Thumper, our rhythm violence game. Today, were happy to announce Thumper will make its console debut on PS4 in 2016. Thumper strips rhythm gaming down to its core. With one analog stick and one button, you control a space beetle as you hurtle through treacherous psychedelic worlds. By keeping the gameplay pure and simple, we combine classic rhythm-action with speed and satisfying physicality. The basic move set of thumping, sliding, and turning is easy to learn. But as you careen onward, youll need to master new moves and survive adrenalizing boss encounters. To reach synesthetic bliss, you must go through rhythm hell. And nothing can prepare you for the ultimate confrontation with an insane giant head from the future: CRAKHED.

Rock Band 4 is returning to ignite the rhythm action genre once again. With Guitar Hero also releasing a new iteration, the question is this: Is the world ready for the return of what were, at one point, some of video games biggest franchises? And are the changes made to the PS4 and Xbox One versions really enough?
