IGN: Rock-on: Rock Band Wii Preview - Think of it as Rock Band: Unplugged

IGN writes: "We finally got a chance to play the Wii edition of Rock Band last week at Nintendo's Media Summit. While it is disappointing to find the game missing a lot of what makes it great on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the fact is, rocking out with three friends is always a good time. During the event, there was constantly a crowd of people standing around the Rock Band area, waiting their turn to sing/strum/drum.

The hardware has received an upgrade from the initial launch shipments that were giving people problems. The drums are the replacement kits that have been sent out from Electronic Arts. They feel spongier (in a good way) than the initial run. They're also a very slick Wii white, as opposed to the original black. The guitar is now wireless and comes with a USB dongle, which plugs into the back of the console."

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.

Strange headline, as I thought the star of the show was Super RType. I almost bought RType Dimensions EX this last month and was just thinking, man I wish we had the SNES one somewhere on Switch. That's where I got my start w the series and I was beyond excited to see it drop this week!
