Just when you thought it was safe to put the plastic controller away... it was!
Published: August 15, 2012
Man, I almost miss the "Rock Block", our weekly roundup of all things Rhythm game-related. It was like an old comforting friend passing through my life each Wednesday or whatever day it was...
Now, normally that would herald the announcement of a NEW Rock Block, but don't get carried away. We are, however, taking a look at the full soundtrack to Rock Band Blitz, the latest incarnation that does away with the peripheral instruments and takes the game back to its roots, FreQuency-style.
Will the soundtrack reach the lofty heights achieved by its progenitors? The boys at Harmonix certainly think so!
“We spent a lot of time making sure the Rock Band Blitz soundtrack was just right,” Chris Rigopulos, Harmonix’s Vice President of Music and Strategy, said. “There are a handful of artists that are new to the Rock Band catalog, as well as solid tracks from fan favorites and classic artists. These are handpicked tracks that we made sure are not only fun to play in Rock Band Blitz, but make an awesome addition to your Rock Band 3 music library at a great value.”
Well look at that, maybe the Rock Block WILL have to make a return!
