Hello, this is where I will be reviewing Rock Revolution. I will do my best to finish the review tonight because I have standardized testing all this week.-- Gears of War 2 (NGG) 00:41, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

Extensive Review

Infobox

• Try adding a link to ESRB's website when stating the rating. Also, the game was released in Europe right. ESRB doesn't govern in Europe.
• Add a link talking about release dates.

Lead

• Usually game articles consist of about 3 paragraphs in the lead: Intro, plot and reception. Because there is no plot because this is a strictly music game, try extending the lead. See Guitar Hero III for help.
• In the second paragraph, try talking more about actual sales numbers and maybe different versions released.

Gameplay

• "The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the game is played using guitar and drum set peripherals. Konami released a drumkit for the game using a 7-pad layout, but a dedicated guitar was not manufactured for the game, requiring players to use Guitar Hero and Rock Band's guitar controllers." Try using this sentence to flesh out the development section.
• "Wii guitar and drum controllers are not compatible with the game." I think your trying to say that the Wii controllers for Rock Band 2 and Guitar Hero 3 are not compatible. Please elaborate.
• Make sure all citations come after punctuation marks.
• " The DS version also supports vocals using the system's internal microphone, unlike the console version which does not[1][9], due to a request by Konami stating that it would "potentially cannibalize the Karaoke Revolution series" and make the game be compared to Rock Band (which are both developed by Harmonix).[2]" Who did Konami request to? This sentence is very confusing. Please fix it.

Pre-Release and Development

• You don't have to mention that Gamespot made the report. Remove.
• "A demo build" Take away the word build.
• Try finding info on what inspired the way the instruments are built and try to flesh out the section. It is very weak.

Soundtrack

• Try making this section longer or start an article devoted to the game's soundtrack. See List of songs in Guitar Hero: Aerosmith.

Recording Studio

• Make it a part of the Gameplay section.

Patent litigation

• Make it a part of the Development section.

References

• Find more references. Refs like 1, 2, 3, 5, 18, and 19 are used A LOT.

Verdict

I am failing this article because there is just to much work to be done for this article to be on Hold.-- Gears of War 2 (NGG) 01:21, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
