	Frequency
		This is what I call a “Twitch” game, hit the corresponding button at the right time, and with games like that button configuration is a necessity.
		Visually, Frequency is eye candy on acid, a true light show experience that complements the music to a tee.
		Given that the whole of Frequency is jam packed with top artists from several genres of music, you know right off the bat that the beat is jammin’.

	Amplitude - GameCritics.com
		Fans of Frequency will likely be able to blow through most of the game without too much difficulty, except in the very last stages.
		Frequency's abstract notion of popping scrolling sound nodules by pressing the corresponding controller button has been replaced in Amplitude by a physical object: a spaceship that shoots three calibrations of lasers at the nodules to break them.
		While Frequency's songs showcased mostly DJs and artists than made music off the beaten path, so to speak, Amplitude is chock full of recognized chart-toppers such as Papa Roach, Blink 182, Weezer, Pink, Slipknot and David Bowie (who contributes a surprisingly bland offering).

		It is a complicated formula but the ticket payout percent and hit frequency of each redemption game in a location must be set in relation to all the other redemption games.
		Also remember that you are striving to have an ‘average ticket payout %’ (value of all tickets dispensed divided by total redemption game gross, for a time period) for all the games of approximately 25%-33% depending on your local competition.
		A children’s redemption game, such as a ball toss game, has a fairly high entertainment value due to the physical activity of tossing balls and a long time of play, if enough balls are set per play.

	Frequency -- PS2 -- Five Stars
		To the untrained, it might seem that the game is too easy, but the more you play, the more you will get a sense of the underlying strategies that you’ll have to master in order to really maximize your scores for each level.
		This is a game where it is all about the game play; it could have the graphical prowess of Pong and I’d still be hooked.
		I tell everyone that I talk to about this game because it is one of those rare titles that has the potential to appeal to everyone from the die hard gamer to someone who’s never picked up a joystick in their life.

	The Armchair Empire - Playstation 2 Reviews: Amplitude
		Unfortunately, the PaRappa games never got much critical acclaim after the first in the series was released in 1997, so they took music gaming in another direction with the release of Frequency, which came out in late 2001.
		While this is less confusing initially for new players, Frequency veterans may have problems moving from the far right side of the playfield all the way back to the far left without breaking a scoring streak—and that’s definitely a pet peeve.
		Freestyling in Frequency was a better option, as it gave players something to do if all of the music tracks in a given section were completed, in order to increase their score.

		Frequency claims the title of best rhythm game with ease and is a thoroughly enjoyable game in its own right.
		Rhythm games have never really enjoyed the same level of popularity in the US as they have in Japan, where they are nothing less than a staple of gaming.
		The core octagonal game field stays the same from level to level, but the background action is dictated by a selection of preset background themes that you can choose from at the beginning of each round.

	GamerDad - Amplitude (PS2)
		In the original Frequency, a player would feel as if he or she were flying through a tube of sound.
		In general, setting up games against one or two other opponents is not difficult, however it is sometimes hard to fill a complete game with four total players.
		Frequency was a fun game in its own right, and anyone looking for a good quality rhythm game should look no further than its sequel, Amplitude.

		The game Frequency was cast aside by many gamers amidst the holiday buzz of November 2001.
		On the other hand, even mild fans of music or games like this will enjoy this game and will have a blast playing all the modes and feel a great sense of accomplishment with the completion of each song.
		Amplitude is a game that will last in your PS2 collection for a long time and is a great pick-up-and-play game once you learn the premise and controls.

	FreQuency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Freeware - Sea Battle and Frequency Analyzer
		The game of Sea Battle is just an exercise in Windows32 programming and a welcome diversion while compiling large projects.
		The Frequency Analyzer (download now) technically speaking performs a Fast Fourier Transform of the sound (you need a sound card and a microphone to use this program).
		By popular demand we are also including a C++ tutorial on how to sample sound in Win32 and an extended tutorial about the FFT and the physics of sound.

		Like many good puzzle games, Frequency has a good addictive base to it, but with its world infused with music the way it is, its going to need a way to grow.
		A game like this should be able to go farther than that of course, but that depends on what new features the upcoming PS2 hard drive brings with.
		If this were an Xbox game for instance, players would be able to rip songs from their own private music CD collection into game-based MP3s that could then be used as part of the game’s music content.

		DDR and its dance pad, and Parappa with its wacky cartoon world, and lyrics, have shown gamers a sense of originality that is rarely seen of this genre.
		Music/rhythm games are far and between to say the least, but at least the quality many of them feature are impressive.
		It sounds complicated on paper, but the game has an extremely user-friendly interface, and a tutorial that will get you playing the game in a matter of minutes.

		Frequency takes this to a new level by breaking up real songs into their components - guitar, drum, synth, etc - and letting you play along with ANY of the parts.
		In Frequency, the major difference is that each song is divided into 8 tracks, each of which occupies the inner face of a 3-D octagonal tunnel.

		Triforcer, its a game where you press the corresponding buttons to play one of eight instrument in a song.
		The only thing that Rez and Frequency have in common is they both focus on music, even though they do it in totally different ways.

		The game puts you in the role of a rogue commander and gives you direct control of mercenary units that you must use in order to fight with the English and French forces.
		The game again puts you in control of the Ghosts who have to change their holiday plans to go to El Paso and put a stop to a growing rebel threat.
		One of the innovative features of the game is the Real Combat engine, a new multi-point melee system which allows the players to swing their weapons where they direct it, in real-time.

	WomenGamers.Com - Because Women DO Play
		Role-playing games, or RPG’s, were the most popular genre in which the subjects play female characters (67%), followed by action games and first-person shooters (53%).
		Many subjects specifically mentioned that in the action game series Quake, some female models are harder to hit with a rail gun because of their smaller size.
		Eight respondents, or 13%, report that part of their motivation to play female characters is simply to add variety to the game, so that not everyone looks the same.

		Music/rhythm games are far and between to say the least, but the quality many of them feature are impressive.
		Frequency's soundtrack is overall perfection, as the diversity of genres reaches great lengths.
		While it doesn't come off as strong as other games this season have, one thing's for sure, Frequency is the best of its pack, and will take a lot to be dethroned.

	PS2 VIDEO GAME REVIEWS... Amplitude __________\|
		At the beginning of the game, you have a good number of choices and tweaks to make the Freq of your choice, but as you progress through Amplitude's levels, you'll gain new characters and customization items to trick out your Freq.
		The most important thing about a rhythm game is that the rhythm be correct.
		That might sound weird to those who never had the problem, but if you ever play a rhythm game that is slightly off so you have to either lead a bit or hesitate a bit to get credit for making the hit, you'd agree that it hurts the gameplay immensely.

	The SBE/NFL Game-Day Coordinators
		As a result, SBE frequency coordinators are now called upon to lend their special skills at a variety of major sporting events, such as all-star games, major auto races, and even golf tournaments.
		As the season progresses, traveling media submit their frequency requests ahead of time via e-mail to the central SBE coordination address, which then automatically forwards it to the appropriate coordinator.
		Each game day is saved as a separate file, automatically incorporating the static season data with the itinerant users at a given game.

	GameSpy.com - Reviews: Frequency (PS2)
		Harmonix has taken the rhythm puzzle game genre to new heights with Frequency, a sleeper hit title with all of the hyper kinetic energy and sound that has made the genre so overwhelmingly popular in Japan.
		All of the current day’s top artists come to the studio to mix their songs, and you are forced to execute the commands delivered by the engineer.
		While that explanation may be considered a bit "imaginative" in describing the game, the minute you begin to play it you will understand the metaphor.

		"Funky Dope Maneuver", Symbion Project, FreQuency for the PS2 This is one of the pieces I composed for FreQuency in the bigbeat genre.
		I was never a huge fan of this song but it got a really good response from fans of the game who haven't stopped bugging me about posting an mp3 somewhere.
		My introduction to the game industry came in 1997 when I joined Papyrus (Sierra) as their audio person and worked on the Grand Prix Legends racing game.

		This game is different, addictive, fun, and the multiplayer and remix modes ensures nearly infinite replay value.
		One of the most frustrating games I have ever played...but is also one of the most entertaining.
		Throw away every pre-conceived notion you may have about games involving music mixing, as Frequency is not only strong in its fun factor, but intensely addictive as well.

	GameSpy.com - Preview
		Between the unpopularity of most music games in the U.S. and the genre's wane in Japan, an original game coming out of an untested American development house seemed like a folly.
		The game was fairly well received, though, as it brought together easy-to-understand gameplay with a decent selection of music and some panache.
		While the first game showed a tendency toward electronic music -- not terribly surprising, given the general vibe -- Sony's managed to score much more eclectic selections this time.

		This game follows the lines of games like Parrapa the Rappa and games where you have to press a certain button at a certain time.
		The game splits all its songs up into Easy Normal and Expert, and when it says expert it means it.
		The game controls are very simple, 3 buttons for the beats 1 or power ups, the d-pad for changing section and the analog stick for scratching.
