Activision Reports Sluggish Sales For Sousaphone Hero

Activision Reports Sluggish Sales For Sousaphone Hero | The Onion – America’s Finest News Source:

Sousaphone Hero offers two dozen public-domain marches, including 1893′s “The Liberty Bell,” 1896′s “Stars and Stripes Forever,” and 1897′s “Entry of the Gladiators.” The bulky sousaphone-shaped controller coils around the body, and players wear white spat-like foot coverings fitted with sensors that monitor synchronized marching steps. As with the fret buttons on Guitar Hero’s guitar peripheral, the sousaphone controller’s three valves are color-coded to match on-screen notes the player must hit.

Players may also choose from 27 different fat-guy characters who can be customized with Alpine hats, epaulets, and a mustache editor with a wide array of options.
