    In reply to Rhythm Video Games Quickly Entering Twilight of Their One-Hit Wonder Career
    Strangely enough, fake instrument games aren't the only kinds of rhythm games! In fact, we've had rhythm games before guitar hero came out. I've only been playing DDR/ITG/Pump for 7 years ago now and Konami still seems to be doing fine with their IIDX/Guitar Freaks/Drum mania/Pop'N series. They're are even some DS rhythm games that have done moderately well, so please stop announcing the death of my favourite genre as though it's imminent.

    I never got the appeal of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises.

    @Yerzriknot: Have you ever played either one? They are pretty fun, with a group maybe after a few drinks. Like karaoke without the singing (or with - if you want)

    Market got over saturated. Happens all the time.

    Well, the games can only offer so much variety. Each new game that comes out if pretty much a clone of the previous game except with a fresh playlist. Personally, that's not enough to keep me interested.

    Small enough that it could easily be wired into a car stereo system. My only question is where does it get power?

    @szrimaging:

    probably an onboard battery. probably mini or micro USB for recharging, so just wire your car for USB and yer good to go.

    This looks nice. I've got a phone with a 2.5mm jack that I connect via adaptor to a 3.5mm line-input, but it's an inelegant solution (although it's the most battery-efficient right now). An A2DP receiver with battery life comparable to, say, a Sansa Clip would be really, really nice to have.

    Looks like it was boosted from the LHC. Either that, or the LHC is using thousands of MIDI marimbas to accelerate particles.

    Most marimbas are 4.3 octaves, and with the mallet choice on the machine, it sounds more xylophone like.

    I wonder if he made the bars himself

    Regardless, a fun project.

    But what would have been the Old West without those shootouts.
    I´ll spoil it. Boring.
    Imagine all Western Movies without the guns. Thats like the ET directors cut. Nobody wants to see that.

    Okay nice attempt at marketing your band. The music though has some work still to be done. I think if I actually had listened to the whole thing I would have taken a few notes from the video and committed sepaku.

    @vapour: Pretty sure carrying all the individual instruments that thing seems to have contained in it is way heavier and way more inconvenient for a street performer.
