MasonicGamer.com - We’ve certainly passed the peak of rhythm game popularity. Those days when you’d walk into your local gaming emporium and face a mountain of Guitar Hero and Rock Band boxes are long behind us. While some of us still enjoy an opportunity to get our virtual rock on, many will have piles of disused plastic instruments taking up space in their attics and basements. Well, it’s time to dig deep in the pile and locate a plastic guitar, as you’ll need it for Jam Live Music Arcade.
Jam Live Music Arcade was released recently for Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network, and it’s a rhythm game unlike ones you may be used to. At its heart, it’s less of a game and more of a freeform remixing tool, which will come as a breath of fresh air for some and a worthless waste of good gaming time for others.
GIZORAMA - Since the bursting of the music game genre bubble, plastic instruments have been gathering dust for most gamers. Developer Zivix wants to remedy the problem and they might have with Jam Live Music Arcade… at least for those that like to get deeper into the inner workings of music. Jam Live is not a game like Guitar Hero or Rock Band in the traditional sense and it is a game for those that like blending pieces of music into remixes.
Craig Bryan from NoobFeed.com takes on JAM: Music Live Arcade. For a couple of pounds or dollars it’s worth a quick look over, but for its current price tag it hits a bum note.
I agree, it's a little too pricey for a small game. But it's still kind of cheap, so whatevz XD
I was looking forward to this for a while, if only to get some use out of my plastic instruments.
This music simulation game hits a sour note.
