Ubisoft looks to be making good on Yves Guillemot's interest in joining the rhythm game genre. Following comments made by Ubi's chief exec last September regarding a pair of mysterious music-based games in the works, the company has posted a job opening seeking someone to "help guide the creation of an exciting new cross-platform music based game."
Nothing else is known at this time, so feel free to speculate. Whatever the studio has up its sleeves, however, we sincerely hope there are peripherals involved. After all, what else are we to fill our living rooms with if not more fake plastic instruments?

Whatever it is, I hope it's original. If it's original, I may support it. If it's just another GH clone, there's no way in hell I will.
Although that'd put me in the minority...

To whoever lands the job: I hope you're pitching for some new gameplay in the genre. The market already has too many plastic-instruments.

I'll hold out for more info, of course, but I'm hoping it's either something original or it's at least compatible with the old peripherals I have now. I haven't bought Rock Revolution yet, but I probably will someday when I can get it really cheap, since it is compatible...

Trying to compete with GH and Rock Band would be suicide.
