Alex, you changed my life when I saw you guys on stage demoing Rock Band for the first time back in 2007. I want to say thank you for creating one of the most engaging and rewarding games I've ever played. I don't want to know how much time (or money) I've spent on it but the time I've spent showing it to others and watching their faces as they reach that "aha!" moment and move up to medium for the first time has been so worth it.
Also regardless of what people think of the song choices and the gameplay, I think The Beatles: Rock Band had some of the coolest art direction in a game. The details of the stages and the "dreamscapes" were so damn exhaustive and I would purposefully play vocals on easy and just hum so I could watch the background. Even the menus were a work of art.
Fantasia: Music Evolved seems to be headed the same way and I can't wait. I love Disney, I love Fantasia and I love the work you guys do so I'm incredibly excited to wave my arms stupidly in front of my tv for hours on end.
I guess since this is an AMA, I'll ask you a question or two. What has been your favorite moment in your career as Harmonix CEO? Also, what's your favorite Disney movie and why?
Thanks again, Alex! If you ever think about doing a Rock Band 4 in the future, let me know. My Beatles: Rock Band drums are on their last leg.
