Ready For A Beginners Lesson On BandFuse: Rock Legends?

BandFuse: Rock Legends caters to all: newcomers, beginners, and experts. Branching off from what Rock Band started, Bandfuse is taking the same route that Rocksmith did but it seems to me this game will be a lot easier to learn

Posted on May 15, 2013 by Joshua Rust

This could quite possibly be some of the best news I’ve heard in quite a while in regards to Electronic Arts (EA).
