1 - Hell YES!
Amplitude and Frequency were two of the greatest games on the PS2. They were the games that preceded Rock Band & Guitar Hero, and in my opinion had a greater emphasis on the tracks you were "playing". If this is true, I will buy it day one, no questions asked.

I'm sure there are a few people around here who can share my joy on this subject.

2 - Off topic but I have a question about music games
Does the download content from guitar hero or rock band 1 work with guitar hero and rock band 2?

Because if it does then what is the point of having new version come out every year? I only ask because my nephew wants one of them for his birthday

2.1 - I'll be glad to help...
every song available for DLC from Rock Band will work with ALL Rock Band versions... there is even an option to transfer 55 songs from Rock Band 1 into Rock Band 2 ( 3 songs were not available for transfer because of licensing issues)

On top of that Harmonix has promised us that all DLC will be compatible for future Rock Band games.

Now... Guitar Hero World Tour... DLC for Guitar Hero 3 will *NOT* work with Guitar Hero World Tour... the only DLC that will is the Metallica Album DLC for "Death Magnetic".

_____________________________ ________________________

now to answer the "Why come out with a new version every year":

Rock Band 2 was only released because of 2 main reasons: 1) they wanted to compete with Guitar Hero and 2) they wanted to fix and add features that fan wanted like Single Player World Tour. They will *NOT* be releasing a Rock Band 3 this year, they have stated that themselfs.

now as for Guitar Hero, you can find about 3 new versions every year... they milk that franchise to no end. World Tour is an obvious rip off rock band. Guitar Hero Metallica is planned for this year and so is World Tour 2.

2.2 - Wow man, now THAT is what I can help
Thank you for the VERY detailed assistance.

It looks like Rock Band might be the better choice. That is so greedy to make new music games like that and you can't even port over songs from your older versions. So because of that, Rock Band looks to be the better choice.

Again, thanks very much

Amplitude would be cool to see on PSN and Amplitude 2 would be even cooler. Now I know it does not say it but I would hope there could be a PSP version too some day. That I think would be cool.

Guitar Hero and Rock Band can go to hell if this happens, Amplitude was awesome.

Frequency was... ok but Amplitude and Amplitude 2 would be sooooooooooooooooo kickass.

Will Dance Dance Revolution or Bust A Groove work on the PS360 also?

9 - Best set of music games I ever played: Frequency and Amplitude.
The new PS3 controller (with the triggers) makes playing these games pretty impossible though, since the higher difficulty levels pretty much require use of three shoulder buttons.

Wow I really hope they make a new amp. Even though Frequency > Amp. I played the hell out of both frequency and amplitude. I still got them both too. I was able to beat both of them again with the DS3 controller too so the controllers triggers wont be a problem.
