Is the music game genre dead?
Last week, Harmonix was hit with layoffs and Activision announced the cancellation of (the foreseeable future of) Guitar Hero and Dj Hero. With sales dropping off considerably in 2010, the genre seems to have hit its end… Or has it? Has the music instrument genre been replaced by the music dance genre? Will Kinect, Move, and 3DS lead to the next innovative iterations? Are we only in a lull for a short time while the games are re-invented?
That’s this week’s topic on #gamechat, the weekly Twitter-based community chat about games. Starting at 9PM EST / 6PM PST tonight we will be chatting on Twitter about that very subject… Join in!
