At a time when it seems like almost every game from the mid 2000s is getting either a remake or a remaster, there’s one entire genre that’s been completely ignored: rhythm games.
PaRappa the Rapper for the PS1 is considered by many to be the first game to kick off this genre but Dance Dance Revolution helped solidify its popularity worldwide. From there, the Japanese title Guitar Freaks served as the inspiration for Guitar Hero and then Rock Band, two of the most popular rhythm game franchises of all time.
