3 Games to Indulge Your Inner Musician

NoBSGamers writes: "One of the biggest arguments against games is that you are just following a set path, you don't create anything. While one could make the same argument against watching TV, or even point out that at least games help you with your path planning and logic skills. That does not mean that you can't directly refute the claims that games don't let you flex your creative muscles. Here are some games that let you create your own music."

Hmm, Electroplankton is also a good DS game for just messing around but it's rare and expensive, luckily enough it's being rereleased on the DSiware!

Jam Sessions looks interesting enough. What's funny is that I was thinking of getting Guitar Pro for the PC. I might as well go for Jam Sessions. Looks like all the important chords are there.

lilgringo5398d ago

You should seriously get guitar pro. Jam Session is a game and GP is a program, and if you want to learn how to play the guitar you should go for the latter. That you're even considering Jam Session is incomprehensible. GP has TONS of free tabs for download for almost every song you could think of

FantasyStar5398d ago

You're right. The tabs and MIDI interpretation might be worth my time. Thanks man, I was weak. (and cheap). I'll swing by my music store sometime this weekend while I pick up some more loose sets of strings. Bubbles for ya.

If you have an inner musician inside of you then you would actually pick up a real instrument. You cant be a musician from playing games..

GamerDad: KORG DS-10 Plus Review

KORG is a maker of musical instruments, and now you can have one of their analog synthesizers in your own pocket. No need to lug around a big keyboard, and it's a lot less expensive, too. KORG DS-10 Plus is a powerful little tool, but you'd best have prior knowledge of music and synthesizers before jumping in!
