The chart isn't messed up, it's charted in the same way as AJFA where the snare and toms are mapped to red, yellow, and blue and the hi-hat is mapped to green. It'd be too awkward to play if the hi-hat was mapped to yellow; you'd have to hit red, blue, and green pads during a constant stream of yellow hits.
DLed DSB and the Spongebob pack per my sister's request so far, actually failed DSB the first time through on guitar at the beginning with the ascending GRYB notes, but got it on the 2nd try.
Spongebob stuff is all pretty short, they're all at least decently fun on drums and I Can't Keep My Eyes Off You is hilarious. Eh, they're a dollar. _________________

the AJFA chart is charted correctly. but that's beacuse lars plays a second hi-hat, with his right hand. whereas, in DSB (i havent seen it played, but have seen the chart) BigZ is saying that the hi-hat should be played with the left hand. _________________

HMX pretty much only charts hi-hat with red when it's a sixteenth roll. I doubt that this song is played "in real life" with the left hand exclusively on the hi-hat. Any song that uses two toms will map hi-hat to green. _________________

GLASVEGAS!?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...
As much as I love the band, they do not belong on this game, I'm glad it's just a stand alone song and not a song pack because there would be a whole load of BAWWW in this thread.
Also, Journey? Hell yeah! Thanks to Family Guy I've now got the urge to sing along to this whenever it plays, and now I can recreate those moments on Rock Band, I love life. _________________

Tier 1 across the board makes me think that the song probably won't be very popular on ScoreHero (or Xbox Live) _________________

It doesn't need to be left hand, but you'd have to cross arms to hit the toms while hi-hatting. _________________

I know what you mean. There are a lot of songs that I would personally enjoy in RB despite not being at all "fun" to play, but it wouldn't even be worth it to have in the game knowing that it would be out of context and bashed/hated by 99% of people for not having interesting enough charts. Certain Doolittle songs give me that impression, Silver especially. It irks me so much when people trash that song. Like, yeah, it's out of place in a rhythm game and wholly insignificant on its own, but it's still part of a cohesive work. The artists didn't write their song to have some moron, who otherwise would never have even discovered it, post "epic fail" on YouTube, because it "needs moar notes", and then go on assuming the band is worthless for that reason alone.
I'm not particularly a fan of Glasvegas, but from what I can tell their songs are characterized a lot by mood and the shoegazey guitar textures, and in Rock Band there isn't much room for that sort of thing to resonate, and the charts make the music seem a lot more simplistic and boring than it actually is. Even if I were a fan, Geraldine would never be my go-to song on any instrument except perhaps vocals. |

What do you mean, Spongebob is a joke? If you mean it's not real, well... it is. If you just mean the songs are humorous and not meant to be taken seriously, then of course.
And they do look legitimately fun to play on drums and hilarious to sing conceptually. The karate noises during the solo of Can't Keep My Eyes Off You are excellent.
They're not for everyone, of course, but these seem to be much better, both in terms of gameplay and general appeal, than the previous Nick songs. Considering I have younger siblings and they're half price, there's a good chance I'll pick them up. |
