What an absolute fucking mess compared to the Japanese cover. And they seem to have unfortunately gone the US route for the PSP cover even in Japan.

Yeah, it's cooler

this poster is implying that the game Gitaroo Man on the PS2, released in North America in 2001, is a significantly better game than Um Jammer Lammy, a similar rhythm based game featuring a musical instrument called a guitar, which is a PSX title released in 1999.

Best original soundtrack and storytelling on the PS2.
Fucking miserable to play.
Also it goes on for one song too long.

I really loved it. It's one of my favorites. I love this type of story-oriented Rhythm game. No Straight Roads is a more recent example.
But, they're all great.

I also think this stage:

Kind of influenced me. I love music, and the idea of playing music in harmony with my girlfriend has long been a really powerful emotional reaction for me.

I'm gonna do some more useless analysis:

A few seconds after this part, it zooms in on Kirah, and for less than a second her eyes widen, before they harden once again. Her trying to fight off her emotions for the MC.
It's really a subtle, beautifully done moment.

And of course, later when she joins with you in a duet. Just a wonderful small episode. Something that old story rhythm games, by foregrounding the music itself, can showcase something different and interesting.
Music is such an absurd thing.

I agree with the gameplay but not really anything else
>>
>>12354758
Not even close.
For example Parappa the Rapper 2 mogs this game.

American cover is better. This one is low effort and forgettable
