Elite Beat Agents dev working on Xbox 360 project
No doubt communicating to Gamasutra via boisterous cartoon speech bubbles, Keiichi Yano of the annoyingly capitalized iNiS confirmed that his team is currently working on an unnamed Xbox 360 project. "Yeah. We are currently working on a title," he said when prodded about Microsoft's console during Seattle's GameFest event. "I can't really get into it more than, 'Yes, we're working on something!'"With iNiS' past creations consisting of feel-good rhythm games such as Gitarooman, the Ouendan series and Elite Beat Agents, said something could easily involve catchy tunes, rhythmic button presses and unintentional gyration. We're certain the iNiS co-founder isn't pressed for ideas, but even if he was, he'd only need to holler for help. The strange men leaping out of his closet in response would probably share some sort of song about putting Gitarooman on Xbox Live Arcade ("it was the best decision ever made!").

Uggh! I wanted a game where we had Mario & Luigi as guests too!

Gitaroo Man sequel please!
Also a side-order of EBA2 and Detailsonyourwiigame.

Sweet. Though it was completely unintentional, I had a really, really good time playing EBA.

If it weren't for the shitty track list, I might've bought EBA. Either way, I'm up for some 360 rhythm games (that have good music).

Oh YES, some sort of Gitaroo Man type game for my 360 would be so very sweet.
But only if it'll be out fast enough to fill in the gap between here and the UK release of Rock Band.

Are You Ready! 3 2 1 GO!

Yeah... I'm not sure how that would work out at all.

GO iNiS! Music/rhythm games are really underrated, although DDR became a cult phenomenon and GuitarHero became a gigantic reference... but still, not enough music/rhythm games.
Especially good ones.
Well, there are good ones, it's just that they're currently underrated.
Woot, a loop/

"Ouendan AND EBA", aren't they just localized versions of the same game? Why do they have two seperate identities? I would say EBA is part of the Ouendan series.

mainly the track list, and different characters and stuff.
its like the difference between a muffin and a bald cupcake. think about it.
