PS2 Music Software With USB Sampler Planned

Thanks to Gamespot for pointing out that there's a USB sampler/microphone forthcoming for your Playstation 2. This add-on to the Music 3000 music creation software will be retail-released in Europe in July, according to developer Jester Interactive's forums, following the European release of Music 3000 itself a few days ago. There's no word yet on a US date for either game or sampler add-on, but as Music 2000 was released in the States as MTV Music Generator 2, a release seems likely. (Incidentally, there was a rare USB sampler add-on for MTV Music Generator 2, but it was only available in very limited numbers via publisher Codemasters.)

you can go to Guitar Center and buy a cheap omni and royalty-free sample discs, an Audigy or Santa Cruz, and pick up a copy of Impulse Tracker, Buzz, or whatever.

Plus you can burn CDs of your heinous creations.

Why exactly is this news for nerds? Whom among you: is reading Slashdot right now, and doesn't have the means to pick up a cheap mic, some sounds effects, and download free tracking software?

So it exists for the PS2: big whoop. It's like when Mario Paint came out for the SNES and there was a mouse.

HOLY SHIT LIKE THAT HADN'T BEEN DONE BEFORE!!!11!!

Makes sense
