The way Harmonix are doing it is perfect. A single release is all the generation needs, and then all the extra content via the store. That was one thing I really preferred with Rock Band last gen, porting your tracks out to the sequel. But yeah, why bother with a sequel at all really? (That was more an EA requirement I think, I'm sure Harmonix themselves would have been happy just rolling it all out as DLC) I don't think the genre will ever hit it's lofty heights of 2007-2009 again, but there will definitely be an active enough userbase (and likely some newcomers) to make it worth while for a small independent studio. 2015 is looking like a fantastic year for Harmonix, what with Amplitude's reboot also coming. |
...fair enough. If this really will be the only Rock Band for the gen, that could actually work. They have years to sell the game and if it does ok enough they might even port it.
