MAKE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND FANS, NEVER WRITE YOUR OWN MUSIC

Rock Band. It simulates everything about the experience of having your own band! …Except of course for the part where you actually make music.

    Yeah, I know, Rockband is just as embarrassing as DDR,, thinking you can actually do it…

    Play on plastic instruments.

    Become international rock stars.

    I come up with my own lyrics… just to existing music:
    Case-&-point example (actually from the previous post) [had some "help" in a way]:
    "Come Surf Away"

    I'm surfing away,
    set an open course, for Route 19.
    'Cos I've got to catch Horsea
    So I'll have a chance, with that chick, Misty

    Round here, I'm the master/trainer
    so come along,
    we'll search [for] Cinnabar Island, [on] it's eastern shore[s]
    And I'll try, o' Arceus, I'll try,
    To catch, them all!

    I look to Route 19/20
    The Swimmers in the waves, "Spark" my memories
    Some happy, some sad
    No riding bikes indoors, and Team Rocket's mad///hey, where's my dad **you decide which**

    This is child labor
    I should have been paid
    But somehow I missed out on the [pot of] Pokedollars///prize money
    But I'll try best that I can…

    TO CAAAATCH THEM ALL!!

    A gathering of Clefairy/Clefable appeared above my head
    They gave to me a Moon Stone, and/then danced around and said;

    They said, "Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me Youngster
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me,
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me, Camper/Beauty/Lass
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with MMMEEEEE"

    I thought that they were Celebi, but to my surprise
    I [Rock] Climbed atop their Mountain, and stood there in the skies (for 3 years)

    Singing, come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me, Gambler
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me, [Bug Catcher]
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me

    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me, [Gym] Leaders
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me [Hiker]
    Come surf away, come surf away, come surf away with me…

    come to think of it… that's not writing my own music… that's [technically] poetry

    This advice is so boring i cannot even think of something amusing to mock it, so i'll just throw this:
    Shawn start posting funnies!

  8. Jet_Sparrow on February 16th, 2011 1:27 am

    Slightly tilt fake guitar.

    HOLY SHIT LIGHTNING BOLTS

  9. RemielChibus on February 16th, 2011 1:56 am

    Sing no words to E-Pro.

    Still become a superstar.

    In other news, Guitar Hero is out of the business of making people follow the rhythm of multicolored notes.

    People, in the panic of hearing such an announcement, have looked for alternatives to fill in the gap. Eye-witness reports have verified that they have filled it in with an object made out of this material called "wood", using instead of one flipper and five multicolored frets, uses about 20 or so of these frets and you change notes by pressing down on these "strings", made either out of nylon or steel.

    Nickelback is on record saying "we're F***ING doomed now, because the talent pool has just skyrocketed."

    The Exact same thing about this could be said for "GLEE"

    Everyone posts advice meme comments

    This is actually really funny. Because as I have played all of the Rock Bands, I now notice that this is Hilarious. Like how you can have a female singer sing something like Death Metal whereas Females do not normally sing Death Metal. Hilarious.

    rockband is for scenesters, real men played guitar hero until world tour came out, then they went back to whatever else.

  15. Strike_low on February 16th, 2011 1:06 pm

    Play any song where the original vocalist is a woman
    Let a man sing it

  16. C__F on February 16th, 2011 3:09 pm

    Actually, the ??? should be between "Sign a Record Deal" and "Profit!"

    Because no one knows exactly how one leads to the other. It's a mystery.

  17. BTSnoogans on February 16th, 2011 6:01 pm

    This is also true for the various pop musicians of the '90s. And now, actually.

    Activision: We do what Nintendon't. By which we mean we're going to cancel a very successful franchise to prop up another which is quickly losing steam, particularly on one rather-vulnerable Sony-produced console.

    Actually, you're kind of forgetting rock band network a little bit here :P
