Lack of hype won't be to blame if the new game (9/9) falls short of meeting expectations.  With the possible exception of some of game previewers that played it so often that the experience made them delusional, no one expects a mind blowing experience.  Still, enough rave reviews have come in from level-headed people that profess to have never been seduced by anything either of the music gaming leaders has produced to arouse the curiosity of even non-gamers (stories).  Paul, Ringo, Olivia Harrison and Yoko Ono have done press interviews endorsing the virtual spin-off. Of course, the money at stake for them is very real.  Hard not to wonder if John would have gotten sucked into the game or been willing to shill for it.
