For Those About To Rock… Pre-Order!
Shady O’ Grady’s Rising Star Now Accepting
Orders
Developed by Gilligames, Shady O’ Grady’s Rising
Star is now available for pre-order from now until August 15, 2006, at the
specially discounted pre-order price of $34.95. After August 15th, the price
will be $39.95.
Shady O’ Grady’s Rising Star is a fresh take on
the computer RPG scene. Forget about those RPGs where it’s up to YOU to fulfill
the ancient, Joseph Cambell prophecy and lead your ragtag band of
adventurers/rebels/used car salesmen and defeat the evil dracolich/sentient evil
computer/Girls Scouts of America. In Shady O’ Grady’s Rising Star the only
prophecy you’ll be fulfilling is the prophecy to rock all night, and sleep all
day!
A musical single-player RPG, Shady O’ Grady’s
Rising Star is all about creating the perfect band and clawing your way to the
top of the musical food chain, proving to the rest of the musical world that you
are indeed hot stuff. Over the course of your career songs will be written,
bandmates kicked to the curb, and hotels will be trashed. You’ll travel the
American roadways, enjoying the debauchery of bars and clubs, rocking out in
studios, checking out the latest tracks at music stores, and living the life
you’ve always dreamed of. Best of all, when you’re traveling across the country
in a single van packed with band members and equipment you won’t have to deal
with the stench, unlike in real life. There’s a reason most bands travel across
country in a drunken stupor you know…
Even if rock isn’t your thing Shady O’ Grady’s
Rising Star features enough musical genres that practically everyone will find
something to enjoy. Players can try their hand at blues, country, folk (and is
there anything better than a granola eating band trashing their hotel room?),
jazz, metal, pop, punk, rap, rock, and ska. A typical career will run about
twenty hours of gameplay, but thanks to the variety of open-ended choices no two
games ever have to play the same way.
Like most Shrapnel products Shady O’ Grady’s
Rising Star boasts a variety of mod-friendly elements. Equipment can be added,
existing equipment modified, maps can be changed, new MP3s can be imported, and
more. The rock never has to stop!
The stage beckons! Hit the lights and let loose
the four horsemen! For more information on this hellaciously groovy title,
