PaRappa creator raps about Natal's musical possibilities

Being the janitor at 'we sign the people that play at local dingy clubs' records, doesn't mean you work in the music industry. You are entitled to your own opinion. However, just because you use 90's pop music money-making as your general idea of what pop music is makes that opinion wrong.

Pop music is about finding that one killer hook, that one beat, that one catchy chorus. Any of the those ingredients, or even better all is what makes pop music popular, maybe it has been manufactured. Does that mean it is bad? No. 'Baby One More Time' is probably the most manufactured song ever, does that mean that the hundreds millions of people that like that song are stupid or gullible? No.

Funnily enough almost all of the people I listed write or co-write all of their songs, and/or perform instruments in them.

Isn't this game fun, you throw an insult at pop music and I reply thoughtfully with a counter argument which matches your point and proves you are an ill-informed dumbass :P.

@Deaftly You clearly haven't been listening to very good Pop music. I'm talking Little Boots, Ladyhawke, Frankmusik, Marina and the Diamonds, Annie, la Roux, CSS, VV brown,BoA, Utada, the wonder Girls, ABBA, MADONNA, Sophie Ellis Bexter, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs ( indie dancish, kinda),Florence + and the machine, Santogold, Goldfrapp, LADY GAGA, MICHEAL JACKSON AND THE TING TINGS

Pop music is the most popular genre in the world, one look at charts world wide prooves that. I simply find it odd how this genre of music has been almost entirely overlooked. If developers and publishers want to bring in more casual gamers, particularly female gamers, then this is the genre they should be looking at. I'm sure most women would prefer girls night in singing along to Madonna than pounding a plastic guitar to the beat of a screaming glam rocker.

I admit I have used lots of stereotypes in my argument, e.g women like pop, dislike rock and men prefer rock to pop. But I am sure my argument is more sturdy than simply saying 'pop music sucks'.

Probably more likely is that the Xbox 360 version sold more copies,
or the better online features produced longer play times= more practise=better players=more kills

Why does everyone bash pop music? I'm getting a bit sick and tired of Rock Band and GH shoving 'edgy' acts down my throat. The ONLY reason I am buying lego rock band is because it features some classic modern and old pop songs.

KR and SingStar have doing the whole pop root for years but neither have enough funding to get decent songs, lets see what the magical people at MTV games can do, emphasis on MTV.

On a lighter note I think the music genre is best suited to Natal. Imagine a game where you have to fit into a stencil of a dance move in time to a beat, i THINK THAT COULD A RIOT AT PARTIES, IN FACT, i'M GOING TO DREAM EVEN MORE ABOUT THAT NOW.
