| axumblade said: @PearlJammer I'm not saying that they aren't a great band. I'm just saying that there are some bands that need to be covered in my opinion before Pearl Jam even gets mentioned. I really think there should be a Rock Band or Guitar Hero for the Rolling Stones and/or Queen (even if there is a Singstar Queen). |
I can understand where you're coming from there. Both, are undoubtedly much bigger bands than Pearl Jam but I think there's more to it than just snagging the biggest bands. The Rolling Stones, for example, would no doubt require a heafty share to publish a Rockband game.
Pearl Jam on the otherhand, not so much. Plus Pearl Jam are currently celebrating their 20th year and are looking for avenues in which to celebrate it. Add to that, Pearl Jam have quite a sizable devouted fanbase who are likely to buy this game. Hell there are many fans who buy all of their live albums (there are hundreds and hundreds of them). Plus they have a bit of mainstream pull as well, with their earlier works. A far cry from either Queen or the Rolling Stones, but it's still there.
Obviously I'm biased here (points to username) but I think the release will be justified with sales once it comes out. Just don't expect it to compare to the Beatles
