Scorehero on decline?

As others have said it's because it's Summer so more people are stumbling out into the sun rather than sitting in the dark making coloured blobs disappear.

This place will be much more alive once RB3 and GH6 come out. I mean these two games are going to be MASSIVE! RB3 is basically 2 years in the making and will bring loads of new features and innovation that we all expect from HMX! And GH6... as much as people knock NS/Activision, I'm confident it will be great. Less games out this year means more focus. And now that more is expected from each release than just a bunch of new songs I'm sure they'll surprise many with some cool new features and a great setlist.

I really see this round of games (GH6/RB3) as both companies real test. You just need to look at the FIFA/Madden/NBA Franchises. Between 98-2001 simply refreshing the team rosters was enough to get good reviews and make big bucks. Then people got bored and innovation was needed in the form of new game modes, new community features, etc.

A little birdie told me GH6 will have a ton of stuff people have wanted for a long time in it...........

So yeah, once both of those games come out, SH will pick back up

Actually, i think you mean Swan Song for NS. But yeah, this is perharps their biggest event since GH3/RB1. Not to degrade the releases in between, but that seems like a good enough comparison.

Maybe it's just me but I swear I see threads like this every year around this time (and plenty of other times through the year). E3 is soon, that should give us more to talk about.

Honestly, I don't know why I still come back to SH. I pretty much only play GH/RB on a casual level and not competitive anymore. Like many asked before, what if we reach a point in the community where there are people that are too good at this game? Well, I think we've reached that point to be honest. I used to play on a competitive level with the community, but fact of the matter is, I couldn't keep up. People were FC'ing song giants with ease while I still struggled to get over 700k on TTFaF. There's just not enough people in each tier of ability, and people are probably discouraged when they see "TTFAF -1" in the accomplishments thread. Also, 4 years of GH is enough to play it dry for me. General, Music, and Other Gaming Discussion Boards are more active because they're more broad, but they still decline as there will only be 4-5 active threads as opposed to 9-15 active threads per board back in the Golden Age.

An example of how SH is declining per person is that I might totally forget about this post tomorrow and fail to check for replies because that's just how it is with SH and I right now.

Yep. It's already hit 80 degrees in Louisiana a few times. It stays in the 70s usually for now. But it's nice enough to go outside and enjoy the weather. When you are couped up for 3 months, it feels nice to get out and about and enjoy your day

Staying behind your desk/tv/video game 24 hrs just isn't healthy and I think 95% of the people here on SH now that and spend their time doing other things as well. lol

Danny ruined the series.........lol

but nah I'm still alive and kicking and honestly I can never wait for the next rhythm game I don't know been playing since GH2 and still am strongly kicking and playing almost non stop......guess its just something I love to do or maybe having a real instrument on the side just fuels me more to have fun on a plastic instrument who the F knows. But I don't think I will ever get bored of rhythm games till they make real instruments then I'll just be annoyed lol.

I pretty much agree with all that Hailz said

about Danny demolishing and stuff, i'd like to see him demolishing vox

hahahahaha

I had noticed already that SH wasn't as active as it used to be in the gh3 times, but ah well, there are still people in here, and believe it or not, but i aaaaalways find something new to go for, in every game

I've never been so "into SH" before (and i've been here for almost 3 years now =O). Of course the scores being on the xbl on the newest game makes that people don't always submit scores here, but ah well...

Decline of activity =/= death.
