Prayers Answered: Rock Band For Wii Announced!
Musically inclined Wii enthusiasts, your prayers have been answered! Electronic Arts finally came out of the woodwork and announced that Rock Band, Guitar Hero’s biggest competition for the 2008 musical crown, will be coming out for the Wii! When trumpeting the resounding success of Guitar Hero 3 late last week, we speculated that the newcomer to the music scene would be making it’s way to the Wii sometime soon. After all, with one of the largest console rates worldwide, it only makes sense for MTV/Harmonix to bring their game to the wonderous, untapped Wii market sometime this year.
No further details on the game have been announced at this moment, but we can only hope that the masses of downloadable songs will somehow be made available for purchase for Wii owners. The poor souls who picked up the severely gimped PlayStatoin 2 version were not only robbed of downloadable content, but the bands phenomenal World Tour mode as well. That unfortunately downgraded port seemed thrown together at best, so here’s to hoping that the developers have used their extra time to work out all the kinks for the Wii version of the game.
So for those about to rock, get ready to salute by picking up your giant box of Rock Band sometime before the end of the year.
