Jam Live Music Arcade launches the week of May 16
Those dusty, old, cobweb-ridden, spider-infested peripheral instruments collecting mold and animal dander in your living room corner may soon see some use, as Zivix and Reverb Publishing's Jam Live Music Arcade is now set to pump up your 360/PS3's jams and/or volume sometime during the week of May 16.If you made the space-saving decision to rid your apartment of its plastic instruments long ago, you'll still be able to remix tracks from the likes of Atmosphere and Rise Against with a conventional controller. We suppose wearing a giant homemade Deadmau5 mask is also optional, if you can really consider it proper music production without one.

That's the basis for Zivix's JAM Live Music Arcade, coming to XBLA and PSN "later this year."Containing a set of over 30 licensed songs "including hits from Modest Mouse, Fallout Boy, Fatboy Slim, Rise Against, Atmosphere and more," players have the ability to improvise and remix elements of the songs as they play. Check out some very complex-looking gameplay footage, and some random footage of people pretending to perform with Guitar Hero controllers, above.
