Human beings aren’t centipedes, and they don’t have quite the same control over each of their individual limbs. Not when it comes to co-ordinating each with another in different combinations over and over again, anyway. But that’s no excuse for the toughness of Drum King’s intermediate and hard difficulty levels.
Drum notes come streaming down the screen, Guitar Hero style, demanding you press left on the D-pad and strike with the remote, then press right on the D-pad and strike with the Nunchuk… all to the breakneck speed of a Bloc Party sound-a-like’s version of Banquet. Crazy. The Easy level, meanwhile, is a little too easy. On top of this, DK’s syncing feels out in places and the visuals are dull. You’re better off with Samba De Amigo.
