Official Ares Free Download

It seems like such a simple idea. We all know how popular interactive games like Guitar Hero have been recently. You can’t go round somebody’s house or walk through an arcade without a huge crowd gathered around someone pretending to be Bon Jovi. But what if there was a way to incorporate music downloads into these games? Well, it’s here. There are more ways to download music than just Napster and Limewire.

Offering music downloads was a logical step for music games with the advent of online play and easy access to the Internet. Rock Band, a music game made by MTV Networks, has so far sold more than 2.5 million music downloads to players of the game. You can buy and download songs as you play.

Guitar Player III has followed suit and so far sold more than 5 million music downloads. Not only are people able to play their favorite games, but they can now download songs to play in them. Most of these music downloads are bought by Xbox-360 users.

Gamers have been able to create their own soundtracks for a while now from their own music collections, but with more publishers looking at music downloads to games as a viable revenue stream, the trends looks set to continue.
