Wants to know which one you would buy


Harmonix is looking at the future of the Rock Band franchise and trying to figure out what you, the Rock Band player, want. As part of this process the company is apparently conducting a survey to find out whether buyers would be interested in a Rock Band artist-only title from Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen and the Eagles. Our sources at the company are being careful not to fuel rumors by saying that they have no deal in place with any of these artists and have not embarked on producing any of these artist-only editions.

Apparently, the company was so successful with the Beatles Rock Band release that it wants to make sure that it picks the next release that will have the best chance at repeating the same success. While Rock Bad Green Day is next up, it is been whispered to us that despite all of the head scratching that has been going on about this release, Green Day has some of the most popular songs that work really well for Rock Band and apparently are heavily enjoyed by those that play the game.

It is hard to say which one will come out on top and which one might be the next Rock Band artist release, but we have to think that the bands being considered do offer a lot of variety in both music and selection. We hope that Harmonix announces the actual winner; but don’t count on it.
