Alpine Legend Revolutionizes Music Game Genre

Posted by Soulskill on Wednesday April 1, 2009 @05:21AM from the haven't-the-foggiest dept.

Microsoft has announced the upcoming release of Alpine Legend for the Xbox 360. Building upon the established titles of the music game genre, Alpine Legend takes you to the Swiss mountaintops, where you and your friends play up to three Alpenhorns at a time while a fourth yodels along. When you're done playing, you can disassemble the 8-foot horns for easy storage. "Jam with alpine legends like Franz 'The Manz' Lang and Johann Hornbostel. Shake the mountain tops with 100 classic Alphorn tracks including, 'Whose spit is in my horn?' and 'More goat bell (It needs).'"

Yes, but will it have Metallica? by StickInTheMud94 · 2009-04-01 05:23 · Score: 4, Funny

Metallica's yodelling compilation is a little known and highly sought-after box-set. It would have been great for this game. :(

TV's Frank: Now I can shoddish while watering my plants! In my Lederhosen Hosen! La la la la la la la... In my Lederhosen Hosen... I JUST WANTED TO BE BAVARIAN FOR ONE BRIGHT SHINING MOMENT! IS THAT SO WRONG?!?!
Dr. Forrester: Yes Frank, it is wrong, but you've been under a lot of stress lately. How about we get you an alpine horn, would that make you feel better?
TV's Frank: YES!
