Forums - Gaming - Developer drops 5000 competitor Guitars into Volcano

Seven45 Studios, the developers of the upcoming Game ‘Power Gig: Rise of the Six-String’ which features a Guitar controller with actual strings rather than buttons has undertaken a step (the kind that is required for a degree in silly walk i might add) to show their dislike of their competitors products, by dropping 5000 Rock Band/Guitar Hero controllers in a famous Icelandic volcano

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I really like that. 

It's different and gets the point across. All the while watching something you havent seen before.

Well done. It entertained me.

When was this trailer made? April maybe? Are those guys responsible for the giant ash cloud which disturbed the european air traffic?



lol somehow has angre issues. well his game is going to bomb, so while he has money hes spending it. what a smart man.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

maybe it's just because i don't have sound atm but that seemed less than impressive.  however, as i already know how to play guitar i'll be interested to see how this plays in comparision to a real guitar.



Money would have been better spent elsewhere, the inside word is that their guitars are shit and that Rock Band 3 is doing it much better. Shame, another dev team goes down the drain.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.
