Because there just aren’t enough plastic guitars and drum sets in your living room, Konami has announced Rock Revolution, a music-based video game that aims re-define the rhythm genre for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii and DS this Fall.

"Rock Revolution will be the most innovative and realistic rock game to hit the market, that will provide a quality drum peripheral and music that players will appreciate," said Anthony Crouts, Vice President of Marketing for Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. "As the originator of music-based games, we are dedicated to bringing fans a truly preeminent music experience.
