  • Summary: The sequel to Sony's "Frequency" features music from such artists as David Bowie, Weezer, Garbage, Quarashi, Logan 7. Trigger drum, bass, vocal, and guitar tracks by tapping the control pad in time to rhythm, and you'll generate an amazing lightshow to accompany your musical stylings. Even better, Amplitude is compatible with Sony's online adapter, so multiplayer game aren't limited to folks sitting around in your living room. Online options will include full chat modes and a ranking system, as well as the ability to create a remix online, which can be saved by the system for other players to listen to and play.… Expand

    Superior to the original in every way, and retains its charm while creating a new direction for the series to follow. It is without a doubt one of 2003's best titles, not only for PS2 but across all platforms.

    An awesome sequel to Frequency and one of the best music games on the PlayStation 2.

    The way that Amplitude is structured lends itself more to good reflexes, the memorization of patterns, and concentration rather than simply a good ear for music.

    This game rocks! (pun intended). It is 2010 as I write this and I'm puzzled because even though this game came out in 2003 it is the first game I'm rating as a perfect 10. It has been a while since I played this but I honestly can't remember anything at all that bothered me about this game and I remember really enjoying it from start to finish. Graphics, gameplay, design, controller mapping, replay value, online, unlocking, remixing songs. At no point in any area of the game could I find any flaws. I started to replay in 2009 and also enjoyed just as much as when I first picked it up. It is so well done and fun it is still worth looking for and picking up, but unfortunately the online aspect has been terminated. It's till a 10 offline only anyway though. Now that it is 2010 I'm really glad to own this because although I don't mind rhythm games, I'm not enough of a fan of them to pretend to play them with a fake guitar controller such as with guitar hero.… Expand

    Why am I the only one who doesn't like this game? I loved Frequency so naturally I was jacked to get Amplitude. I got it....2 hours later had it beat on every level and was incredibly bored with it. What a let down. The new graphic additions were nice as well as the updated multiplayer mode...also slo motion was kinda fun the first few times. All in all it was way too easy. I beat 90% of the levels my first time, had all bonus songs unlocked and decent scores on each song all within about 2 hours. Boooooo. If you liked Frequency or lack even basic grade school beat than by all means rent it before you buy.… Expand
