About Me


Hi! I play video games and don't afraid of anything. Well, I am afraid that I might accidentally a whole Jill sandwich... but the chances of that happening are slim! I don't blog as much as I'd like to.

I've had every system I could get my hands on since I first played Super Mario Brothers on the NES, and currently I have a Wii, Dreamcast, PS3, and 360 hooked up to my TV. My all time top 5 favorite games: Super Smash Bros. Melee, LoZ: A Link to the Past, Super Metroid, Chrono Trigger, Castlevania: SotN.

I don't really have a favorite genre, because I like pretty much all video games. It's easier to just list the genres that I don't like. Simulation sports games (Madden, Tiger Woods, etc.) are no fun at all in my opinion and most FPS games (with few exceptions) bore me.

I wanted to join this community because the front page posts are fantastic, and the cblogs are packed full of win. During my time here, I've met tons of amazing people, and have had an awesome time at the first Mega-NARP in Cincinnati. My favorite thing about Destructoid is the cocks. Long live Destructoid.com!

My hour with Rock Band
Dynamic Sheep | 3:46 PM on 11.13.2007 10 comments


The other day while looking for a food scale in Walmart and having no idea where to look, me and my g/f stumbled upon a 2nd demo station set-up in the Christmas section of the store. There was a Wii running Super Mario Galaxy (fun fun fun!), a 360 running Scene It with the buzzer controllers (yawn) and a PS3 running Rock Band!

The demo unit has the guitar and drum set set up (sans kick peddle). Since I was there with my girlfriend, she didn't want to stand around and watch me rock out forever, so I played Weezer's "Say it ain't so" on drums and we left. It was so much fun that the next day after dropping my g/f off at work I went and picked my brother to surprise him with the awesomeness of Rock Band.

We played a bunch of songs on co-op switching between drums and guitar. Like I said before, the drums were a lot of fun, but the guitar... not so much. I don't know if it's just the demo unit's guitar or what, but every time I hit the strum bar, it'd hit it more than once. I got about 70% on EASY. Now, I'm no fag, but I got most of the way through hard on GHII, so I do know how to lay down a G, R+Y, >G, B, G, Y+B or two. I hope this isn't indicative of the final guitar for the game...

This experience turned me from someone who was mildly interested in this game, to someone who must own this game. I know I won't be getting it at launch, but I'll be saving up my money.

Myself, LostCrichton, and Toneman played the demo for 2 1/2 hours last weekend. We even went as far to ask one of the Best Buy associates to find a working controller to we could use the mic as well. No such luck, but hey the guy honestly tried.

Say It Ain't So is what I played on drums at E for All. And then, I rocked so hard the power went out in half the convention center. For serious.

I'm jealous. I know the people at my Best Buy and they kicked me the fuck out after about 20 minutes....assholes.

Well they didn't kick me out but they asked me to stop rocking so fucking hard.

70% on easy? lol, the only song I can see you beat on hard mode with that kind of percentage is hit me with your best shot.

the guitar is sensitive and i think that the whole non-clicking noise throws people off. it threw me off for awhile. also i am lost without knowing what the hell to hamemer on and off.
the buttons not protruding from the guitar seem add to it but that all just needs some getting used to.

the drums i can't fairly judge because they were so close to the tv that i was looking directly up at the screen without the drums in my peripheral vision. it made it hard seeing as green is on the right as opposed to being on the left on the guitar.

phew! thats my 2 bunch of cents.

I'm still pissed that the one Best Buy near my house has a broken guitar peripheral. I might check it out again this weekend if the Guitar works, because the tour ain't comin' to Nebraska.

So, the guitar is supposed to be like that? I think I'll buy it with just the drum in February.

I played it a demo of it at a local best buy and they had a guitar and drums set up. The retarded thing is that they didn't plug in any of the audio connections to the big screen unit they had. It was so retarded and I felt like it when I tried to play the damn thing without sound. That and the fact that the drums set was so beat up that it required extra force just to get the thing to work right.
