Ok, yeah, I know, I’ve not been updating this blog too frequently. I really should have written this entry a month ago, when the following announcement was made on the Spike Video Game Awards 2009<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Not included in the announcement was the fact that Demiurge Studios was working on Green Day: Rock Band<\/em>. And I gotta say, it’s pretty freakin’ awesome working on it. I’d love to tell you more, but NDAs, yada yada yada, so I can’t say much else.<\/p>\n

It’s strange, though, that I didn’t realize how big of a Green Day fan I was until we started working on this game and I listened to all of their albums. I loved a lot of their songs beforehand, but I didn’t know that those songs I loved were Green Day songs since I pay next to no attention to the artists behind particular songs. I don’t really buy much music, so most of the songs that I like that I’ve only heard on the radio, at parties, etc., I have no idea who plays them.<\/p>\n

This makes the third Rock Band<\/em> title I’ve worked on, the other two being Rock Band Country Track Pack<\/em><\/a> and Rock Band Metal Track Pack<\/em>. [Aside: Metal<\/em> was originally announced<\/a> to be released on Rocktober 13; we’d wrapped up work on it long before then. Then, lo and behold, on September 22<\/a>, an email went around with “hey look, we’ve got a game on store shelves”. Turns out the release date got pushed forward by 3 weeks, and nobody at Demiurge realized it]. But this ain’t no wimpy little track pack — it’s a whole new game that’s an order of magnitude more challenging, and we’re working as hard as possible to make this game as awesome as possible.<\/p>\n
