ScoreHero and Harmonix present: Battle of the Bands!
A couple of weeks ago, Harmonix approached ScoreHero to help organize a press event for their upcoming title, Rock Band. ScoreHero gladly accepted the offer, and Phr34k took on the challenge of creating the tournament format for the event. The end result was a fantastic tournament format that showcases the various game modes that will be in Rock Band. This event will take place over the next couple of weeks, leading up to Rock Band's release in late November of this year. The participants in this event will be none other than 10 complete bands (4 members each), derived from the top 10 video game review sites:
• GameSpot
• IGN
• GameSpy
• Team Xbox
• GamePro Online
• 1up
• GamesRadar
• GameTrailers
• AOL
• Yahoo ScoreHero will be providing per round updates on the event and how the 'bands' are progressing, and each website has the opportunity to release articles based on their experience with the game and tournament. The event will start early next week with Round 1, and will continue towards the finals in mid-November. Which band will emerge victorious? Stay tuned to find out! _________________

I'm gonna go ahead and root for IGN. After all, I hear they have many advanced techniques to help them pass the harder songs in the game.
*waves his "Gogo IGN Guitar Hero Master!!" flag*
But srsly, I'm rooting for Sluggo's site. Gotta figure that since Sluggo can make an actually decent preview video, he can play the game well. _________________

For a second I thought Scorehero was going to have a team competing against these other sites, lol. That would not have been fair at all. Anyways I cant wait to see how these different sites match up with each other. |
