Monsters, Magic and Marilyn Manson?

None of these bands are anything like Manson.

No, because they can actually play music rather than screaming down a microphone. MM had his 15 minutes of fame and he's gone now.

Just maybe acquire better music taste than Nightwish and Evanescence before criticizing other people's music. Just a thought.

Damn, what a scathing putdown after a fortnight's thinking. Oscar Wilde must be jealous.

Didn't stumble across this thread before now. And name dropping famous authors sure does make you sound intelligent!

Does that mean I can't criticise Panic at the Disco, because I like Amy Winehouse and Bowie and Beethoven? I don't see the logic there, different isn't always bad, and clever music isn't always likeable.

I don't think the game will be dumbed down, I think it is made to look dumbed down through trailers, so the retarded gamers with ADD would buy it.

Yeah this trailer looks more like marketing for a bunch of stupid 14 year olds who like mediocre songs and fast violent graphics. I don't really expect it to be much different than any other computer RPG in the 'dungeons & dragons' genre.

My main point was that the poster I quoted was IMHO being a ginormous clown for telling people how much they sucked for liking Manson, who is at least a reasonably influential artist in yesteryear's pop/rock scene, while at the same time lauding the likes of Evanescence, regarded widely as being generic emo tripe very limited influentially and musically.

Also, Bowie rocks!

Which brings up a new question. Its 2009. Who the hell thought Marilyn Manson would sell anymore?

I don't know...but it made me wanna buy the game...
