Jam out with Jam Sessions 2 for the DS

Jam Sessions 2 is set to hit North America this Fall for the DS. Jam Sessions 2 is a guitar game where you play the guitar and write songs via the touch screen. You’ll be able to create songs, share them with your friends and there will be DSi specific features as well.

Every time I think of Jam Sessions, I always think of the rejected Mega64 ad for the game, which you can check out after the break. I wonder if Jam Sessions 2 will have the same kind of effect on people.

UBISOFT® ANNOUNCES JAM SESSIONS 2

SAN FRANCISCO – August 27, 2009 – Ubisoft revealed today that it is releasing a follow-up to its critically acclaimed Jam Sessions video game with Jam Sessions 2 for the Nintendo DS(TM) and Nintendo DSi(TM) systems. Scheduled for release in Fall 2009 in North America, Jam Sessions 2 is a guitar game developed by Plato that makes improving your guitar skills fun and rewarding.

Each song in the gameplay mode serves a different role in advancing players’ guitar skills and songwriting abilities. By progressing through the songbook, players learn techniques that will help them play the guitar and write songs. Armed with their new skills, players can play, create and share their own original music with others.

“Ubisoft is pleased to present players of all ages with a music game that builds on the unique foundation of the first title,” said Tony Key, senior vice president of sales and marketing at Ubisoft. “In Jam Sessions 2, players can freestyle sections of featured songs and make them their own. With a push of a button, players’ created works can be included in the game play and instantly converted into a playable level.”
