Rock Band HCI sucks

June 23, 2008

My brother in law called me at 7am this morning, said he was at Superstore and they had one Rock Band left for the Wii, did I want it? Ummm, sure? I have lots of friends that love it so it must be good right?

HOLY SHIT, NO!

Just about every piece of the in-game user interface is absolutely horrible, on its own, but especially compared to Guitar Hero III.

I'm too tired from a long day of sports, meetings, gatherings and Rock Band to get into detail right now, but this is a warning to my Wii-loving friends, keep your money!

If I find the time and energy, I'll expand on my claims of UI sucktitude, but I think to really do it justice you need pictures, and that would be really time-consuming to produce, so I'm not sure that'll happen any time soon.
