Variety Reviews Rock Revolution

Review by Leigh Alexander:

"It's no surprise that Konami, the originator of peripheral-based rhythm gaming, is jumping into the fray against "Guitar Hero" and "Rock Band." What's unexpected is that the move is being made so late and with such a disappointing entry as "Rock Revolution." Konami's "Dance Dance Revolution" and its foot stomping pad were ground-breaking; "Rock Revolution" is overly complex where it should be simple and soulless where it should be rich. This revolution has little chance of overthrowing the genre's kings."
