  • The Rise and Fall of Plastic Instruments - Ep. 26
    THIS WEEK I spend an inordinate amount of time talking about my Thanksgiving week, black friday, and a ton of cool stuff I played/watched. Then a small news section, not an eventful time right now. The topic of the week is an in depth look at Rock Band and Guitar Hero's history. The rise of the plastic instrument games, and the fall, why it failed, and the possible future of peripheral based music games. Then in the community section we read some really great comments! Enjoy!!!
