Playable at PAX East booth #4224
Harmonix is reviving Amplitude this summer and, if recent rumors hold up, Activison might bring back Guitar Hero. The lows of the rhythm genre are real low, but I’m ready for that high again.
Going into this weekend’s PAX East, Harmonix is showing gameplay footage and talking multiplayer. In an effort to appeal to “casual and hardcore” players alike, the developers have come up with Team Play, a new mode that lets players compete 2v2 or 3v1. But if you’d rather just dominate against friends and family, the traditional Free-For-All mode will also be in Amplitude.
All this talk reminds me that Rock Band Blitz is a thing I own and should play again. Gonna have to do my best to ignore Conrad Zimmerman’s scores, though. Trying to top them is a safety hazard.
