I’m thinking that if cobwebs have formed between drums and bass, then the author hasn’t been very interested in playing the game either. If you are lamenting your return on investment, you should lead by example and play the damn game yourself.
If they see their dad struggling with a video game, there’s nothing they will want more than to show you how it’s done.

I think, the game you are partially describing has already been done. Think back, oh, about 25 years ago and you might remember Journey The Video Game in your neighborhood arcade. I used to play it at Fun n Games in Framingham, MA after school.

Very inspired, Jeff!

I would only suggest the inevitable title change to “Mersey Beatdown ’12″

I was trying to remember what I was interested in back when I was 12 or so. My guess would also be tits. And I didn’t really care (still don’t) if they were A cups or DD cups, as long as there wasn’t hair around the nipples.

Why 14 year old boys? All the 19 years of my acquaintance have this game and love it. And the 45 year olds. And the 60 year olds. Wrong age group–why bother with tadpoles? Actually, one thing I’ve noticed about the “youngsters” (at least those in their late teens and upward), is that they don’t seem so attached to what era their music comes from and indeed seem to prefer “old stuff” (which includes Alice in Chains and Nirvana).
