 clarinet hero :-)

It looks like they picked the wrong instrument with which to follow the success of Guitar Hero. As we all know, Clarinet Hero would have been a "sure thing".

Ignore the comment in the "Mount Rushmore" rectangle on the right - this post isn't political.

Clarinet Hero...after every level the reeds get harder. :-)

Actually, a clarinet-based video game would probably look more like one of those role-playing-type games where you have to go on quests to find magical pieces of equipment...

At the highest level, you'd be required to use the most bizzare alternate fingerings.

I wonder how the character on Clarinet Hero would be dressed?

Long live The Onion! I love the description of the "fun" rewards:

>>If they hit enough correct notes in a row, the on-screen crowd yells "huzzah" and "bully," and the sousaphone's spit valve will "drain." >>

On Clarinet Hero, we'd earn a new ligature for playing in tune or water in the tone holes if we squeaked. The audience could switch in an instant from humans cheering to cats hissing.

Or, the audience would start coughing, clearing their throats, shuffling their feet, and getting up to go to the restroom if too many squeaks or wrong notes occurred.
