Most under-rated game of this generation?

Easier to get back and forth between tracks due to the tube. Non quantized freestyling. Feels more like you are creating music and not just pushing up faders.

Oh yeah, more enjoyable remix mode.

excellent reasons, all. i feel the same way, especially about the faders. one nice thing about the sequel, though, is that harmonix included a code that will turn the playfield into a tube.

i was gonna do the same, but i didn't feel like hearing about everyone talk about how much better the THQ one is when im sooo sure no one even touched Namco's version.

Does Namco's version have online play? Just curious as I've never seen it.

I'd have to pick REZ. While it is a rather short game, the scoring system and excellent soundtrack make this game enjoyable everytime I play it.


Air Force Delta. I have'nt played the Xbox version and it defineatly was overlooked on that format, but the DC rev was an excellent arcade style flight combat game.

Yeah, except the tube still functions like the flat track. You can't go completely around, i.e. you can't go over from the last track to the first track, you have to scroll all the way back around just like you were playing the flat playfield.

Goddamn fucking right. If any game deserved to sell more or get more credit, this was it. Without a doubt one of the best games I've ever played in my 15 years of gaming.

seriously? ugh. i was just about to try the code myself.. alright, frequency is officially > amplitude.

I really liked both Frequency and Amplitude, but after playing the sequel I tried going back and playing the first game and it just wasn't as fun. I think the user-friendliness of Amplitude made it harder for me to go back and enjoy frequency.
