These games harkenback to the classic arcade games of the past, they're all about high score. Which gives it infinite re-playability, since you never really complete them. also, this isn't so much a competitor as it is an evolution of the game. Red Octane paid Harmonix to make the 1st two, then took the job to Neversoft. Being bought out by MTV enables Harmonix to get real songs instead of covers and EA is just publishing. 1. you can never have enough meaningless peripherals!
