Pretty mmuch everyone nowadays has at least heard of either Rock Band or Guitar Hero. But for those few who don't know, they are video games that let you play rock songs with a guitar controller. Anyway, these games are really dominating the music and game market if you think about it. For the game side, I would say 3 out of 5 people have one of the two games. The music side is a whole different story.I read an article on CBSNews.com that told me the Whole Story about how these games have affected the whole story. As it stated in the article, Greg Lopiccolo, the vice president of Harmonix, said that they used to have to approach bands for the game. But now the bands are all wanting to get into the games. Which is awesome by the way because I'm a Classic Rocker, so the more classics, the better.
Also much of today's youth are discovering the older bands and the Golden Age that their music belonged in. If you ask me, the older bands played far better music than the stuff of today.
