Wow, this game looks pretty fun.

It's amazing fun, one of the best games on Wii and the most innovative game in a long time.

Oh, I'm enjoying them all right. I can't wait until Wii Music officially crossed 1 million in the U.S. VG Chartz already has the game over 2 million worldwide!

... I can't wait to see Nintendo's shipment numbers for the game in their company financial reports... hehehe

I just got my first pay check from my new job today, so I picked this game up at an indie game store I found. I also picked up Hotd: Overkill... I'm having trouble deciding which one to play first...

Where do you work Kairon?
Flip a coin to decide on which game.

No no no... He's a plant for Ubisoft at another forum. I guarantee it

I'm really interested in this game, but I don't think anyone that I know would be into it. Is this game still worth it if you'll be playing mostly by yourself?

The game could be enjoyable by yourself but it's more of a multiplayer oriented game(or it feels like that). For single player you will get a lot out of it if you like making songs you want sound the best they could by experimenting with instruments and such.

Kairon · « **Reply #289 on:** March 01, 2009, 12:55:50 AM »

I'm not going to have a lot of chances for multiplayer, so I definitely hope it's suitable for a single player.

Actually, I'm still waiting to be convinced that this is a multiplayer game. In single player you can create all six parts of one song, so the functionality is still there, and you can definitely jam to the game's AI tutes.

In my opinion this isn't turning out to be a multiplayer game, but a game for people who like to "play" with music.

BTW, impressions:

Omg this isn't a game. This isn't a toy. This is ART.

This is computer-assisted art. Or human-assisted-computer-art, depending on how you look at it.

I recommend either renting it or buying it used or cheap. I personally love the game, but its one of those concepts you might either like or hate but won't know till you try it. So I recommend that you play it, but in the event that the game isn't for you its best for you to rent or buy cheap.

Kai, you gotta send me some songs! I will send you many of mine!

That's a good recommendation. There's really no precedent for Wii Music, the closest thing is Mario Paint composer, but not even that.

Next weekend. I'm no virtuoso, but I taking the core material and tweaking it in my own way... ^_^

It's the free-form music composition which interests me. I have the MTV Music Generator for the PlayStation, which is a very technical tool and the actual creation of music is boring, it's the end result that's enjoyable. With Wii Music it looks like the actual composition is fun; are you sure this isn't a game?

However, this free-form composition probably means that it isn't as intricate as the MTV Music Generator, so I wonder if I could still compose the music I wanted. I haven't watched any videos of this game yet, so maybe I should start there.

I don't like renting games because I can't stand paying for something that I'm not going to own (one reason why I can't buy download games). It was already my intention to buy it used for cheap, although it could be a while before it goes down in price...

Kairon · « **Reply #294 on:** March 01, 2009, 05:09:40 PM »

The thing about Wii Music is that you're actually NOT writing music. The music is there, you're just poking at it to change its shape based on what's already there.

Watch some music videos, yeah. That should give you a good idea of what the game can do. It isn't really about composition, it's about finding ways to stretch the music, and the algorithm that guesses at the notes when you want to do something unconventional.

If you think about it in terms of composition, it's quite limited. If you think about it in terms of "play," or "variation," then it starts to make more sense.

What Kairon said.

You can't really compose any music, but you can definitely rewrite it.

Kairon · « **Reply #297 on:** March 01, 2009, 06:54:26 PM »

Can I send you music videos next weekend Pro?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #298 on:** March 01, 2009, 11:24:55 PM »

Please do.

Mop it up · « **Reply #299 on:** March 02, 2009, 02:49:47 AM »

Oh, so you can't compose music with it? Oh well, it still looks fun so I might have to buy it anyway.

Thank you for the info.
