Today it's Arnaldo, Kelly, Mike, and Paul talking about the meteoric rise and fall of the rhythm video game; most notably, Rock Band. After spending some time praising the existence of the private karaoke room, we start off with the most important question: Rock Band or Guitar Hero? (8:00) With some answers in tow we talk about the creation of the company most responsible for the rhythm game wave, Harmonix (21:00) and their PS2 games, Frequency and Amplitude (27:00). The publisher Red Octane and their role in the DDR mat market and their plastic guitar dreams are up next (36:30) followed by the creation of the phenomenon, Guitar Hero (44:00). Next we talk Rock Band itself (57:00) and our own band names (1:11:00) and wrap things up with the sad list of reasons the genre has fallen off a cliff (1:30:00)
