Rockband Unplugged reviewed revisited

Some feel that I may have judged the game too harshly with my score of D- considering several other reviewers at other outlets gave it higher scores and more praise. Even I had to think about it for a bit and ask myself if I really disliked the game that much. I spent some more time with it this weekend and for those who were expecting a dramatic change of heart, I'm sad to report that I still don't think it's a good game.
First of all, it is not because I'm bad at the game. I've been able to 5 star a few songs on expert and clear the setlist on hard difficulty. There's only one music game I fear. The reason I don't like the game is because it takes the fun out of just playing the song and losing yourself in the music. When you start out playing the guitar part you're use to that rhythm and pacing, then the game takes those notes away from you after playing the phrase correctly and makes you play something else. It's really distracting when you're playing the vocal part of a song like Everlong just as it picks up with "and I wonder, when I sing along with you" and you're ready for the "if anything will ever feel this real forever" but instead it makes you go play the drums or bass track instead. If you've ever played Dance Dance Revolution on a controller you know that you can have much better transitions from one part of the song to the next without the experience being jarring to the senses.
Secondly this is a Rockband game on a platform that not only has the ability to connect to the internet through wifi but also other devices through ad-hoc so there is absolutely no reason for you to not be able to play with at least one other person.
Lastly, I cannot understand why they thought it was a good idea to punish you with removing sound from the other tracks which makes it harder for you to get the one you've missed a few notes on back on rhythm. I play the drums on expert in the console version of the game. If I miss an entire section of notes it does not remove the guitar track, but in this game if you miss one note in a phrase you will likely lose the music for the track you're playing but another one as well.
In the end all of this is subjective and it is my opinion that this is a bad game. It's not going to put me off Rockband for good or detour me from purchasing The Beatles: Rockband or Lego Rockband later this year. It's just not my bag. The score I gave it last week stands.
