Before Rock Band and Guitar Hero… There was Amplitude

"Amplitude" may be coming back! Now, if you consider yourself a huge fan of music games, and own every "Rock Band" and "Guitar Hero" game ever made, but have never heard of either "Frequency" or "Amplitude," consider yourself a poser. Those were two, very original games developed by Harmonix, for the PS2, way back in 2001 and 2003 respectively.

Each game had the player controlling a small ship that would "blast" beats from various instruments off a preset track by using the L1, R1 and R2 buttons. The inspiration for Harmonix's later rhythm games is blatantly apparent here, and both games were praised for their originality and addictive gameplay by gamers...
