Rock Band 3 to teach how to play for real

Rock Band 3 to teach how to play for realRock Band 3 will teach gamers how to play the guitar for real. That’s according to Dhani Harrison, son of Beatle George Harrison who’s currently working his magic on the game.

If true it looks like the next Rock Band game will be making the step up from simulator to a real-life rock star churning music teacher.

“I’m working on Rock Band 3′ and making the controllers more real so people can actually learn how to play music while playing the game,” Harrison told U.S rag the Chicago Tribune. “Give me a couple years, it’s going to happen.”

Harrison also told the Boston Herald that Rock Band 3 will be more than a game that has players pantomime in rhythm. It hasn’t been long since the release of Rock Band 2 so don’t expect to hear too much about it anytime soon.

Could the next Rock Band see a redesigned axe toting strings? Let us know your predictions in the comments section.

    i think it will be great to have more realistic controllers that way it seems like your actually doing more than you think. Maybe if in the next rockband you can add more music like from bands like disturbed(the night) and even some matchbox 20. so that it may attrack more people because there is more style of music rather than having all rock all the time. Even though i am a huge fan for rock music i would also enjoy some more choices if its not to hard to ask of. Knowing that you already have enough on your hands though. I play rockband 2 all the time and love the game and play on hard and expert. maybe you can add some more songs that are harder, rather than having a whole bunch of easy songs. If you could take a look into what im saying i would appreciate it very much. I dont want rockband to go down like guitar hero because their graphics are sucking so far. Which started with world tour. Your fan and admirer Kyle.
