  • Abstract:  Rating: Teen There is something almost brave about the decision to make a game like Rock Band. With Activision and Red Octane ably handling the Guitar Hero franchise, what could Harmonix do that was bigger, louder, and even more daring? The answer was...

  • Abstract:  The dream of being in a rock band is not one that everyone will be able to fulfill. Be it lack of talent, lack of charisma, or an overwhelming shyness, we weren't all born to be the next Steven Tyler. Well, I was, but let's assume you weren't. Whateve...
