Yes, you read that right. Harmonix, the developer famous for music game franchises such as Rock Band, Dance Central and Guitar Hero (before Neversoft took over) just announced that they're making an arena FPS for PC that's driven by music. You can sign up for Closed Alpha access here

So, Hype or HYPEST?

Count me as hyped. I feel that recent music games have not been too great (with Symphony and Beat Hazard having no real progress and Sequence suffering from lag issues), but this is fresh and innovative enough to get me excited. That it's from Harmonix, who can be trusted to make solid rhythm-games, also helps. Gonna test it out!

Never cared for music games in general aside from DDR/Stepmania, but color me intrigued.

I'm interested. Especially if you can use your own music.

Found out today, the fact that it's going to be free-to-play on Steam an it's unthinkable combination of music and FPS got me hooked.

Seems like the closed alpha is underway. I found an alpha key in my email today, so maybe I'll try it out.

Sad. I hope this works out as well as possible for them.
