Neither Rock Band 2 nor Guitar Hero World Tour cracked the top 10 US best-seller list last month. Are ersatz rock games on the wane?

see results

1	Yes. Ersatz rock will be supplanted by ersatz disco, ersatz pop, and finally ersatz hip-hop.	Vote
2	I'm sick of those games like Foghat's sick of playing "Slow Ride."	Vote
3	Nope. If they didn't have so many different bundles of those games, they would have appeared near the top of the chart. The genre is still going strong.	Vote
4	Until I get my full album download of Frampton Comes Alive, the genre isn't allowed to die.	Vote
5	Two words: FUNK BAND.	Vote
