I saw that preview yesterday and I think it looks very interesting and fun. I love the graphical style, just pure fun.

Also, the gestures seem to be well registered from the video I saw, what are you talking about kingofwale? The person just missed notes here and there, it's easy to see as the little icon follows the remote movements 1:1.

>Also, the gestures seem to be well registered from the video I saw, what are you talking about kingofwale?

well, on the video, there's button moving up. to register the hit, you have to wait until the button shows up and you move your Wiimote to the right location, right?

the cursor moves way too fast, and some misses are from the fact it moved fast there and then it changed back to the original location.

Let's all wait for the final game before passing on our final decision

 Yes I agree, we'll have to wait until people have played it to see how it is exactly, which means you shouldn't start dissing it right away.

You say that you have the impression that if the person does the movement in advance, it doesn't work. Souns like every single game in the same genre has the same problem: press the button at the right time, or miss.

Also, from what I've seen and read I think it's more like a movement thing, not so much of a "position the cursor at the right spot". If I'm right, it's not moving too fast... the person is just doing it too fast.

Guitar Hero? DDR? What about Space Channel 5 and Samba de Amigo? The Dreamcast never gets any credit.

I find it kind of silly that anybody's talking about graphics in a rhythm game. If you're playing Rock Band and noticing the graphics at all, it's time for you to kick up the difficulty a notch. :P

I loved the cover versions, i hope the other songs turn up great as well. Graphically, it needs a little refreshing but graphics were never important on games like GH. It looks insanely fun.

perhaps, just perhaps kingofwhale that the Face Off doesn't come into play until one player pulls ahead of the other by a significant amount, therefore for the sake of a 1 minute video the player had to miss if they were going to demonstrate how that worked.

Notice how the Face Off switched from one to the other in the Insane in the Brain video - that tells me that at some point perhaps both players had no problem hitting a selection of notes as I doubt that the Face Off would just appear randomly.

You haven't played the game, dont know the players, dont know how the game hangs together yet you have it dismissed as a bad graphical version game that lacks wiimote accuracy within half a dozen posts written by a Company whose only got themselves to blame as they put this demo out there with these accuracies you've "expertly" picked up on.

You did exactly the same as this on my Zack and Wiki and several other posts - it seems to me you've got more pairs of rose tinted glasses than Elton John.

this could turn out to be a really fun game i hope the developer doesnt screw it up.

Not a guitar hero or a rock band, but I will try it for sure.

 Well, I couldn't be more glad to have the "search" feature on this forum. In one way, keep people responsible to what they say.

I took a lot of abuses for making my prediction above, All I'm saying is, I am glad I stood by it and here's the review for it

http://wii.ign.com/articles/869/869295p2.html

 5.6 out of 10.

4.5 Gameplay
Hopelessly shallow. Based around a few Wiimote gestures, which usually aren't fun.

5.0 Lasting Appeal
This is a one trick pony. After the initial novelty wears off there's nothing in the gameplay to keep you going, and nothing to work towards.

 Now... waiting for Wiicheer review
