This music simulation game hits a sour note.
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.
DHGF: JAM Live Music Arcade has some interesting ideas, but executes them so poorly that it ends up being boring at best and unfriendly at worst. There are two modes to the game that are largely similar and equally uninteresting, and while the game looks fine enough, the song list is equal parts unmemorable and unexciting for the sort of game this is. The gameplay mechanics can basically be learned in a few minutes and adjusted to not too long afterward, but the game chooses to do some very awkward things with said mechanics, making them unpleasant in a hurry.
