Tiny Diggers – An iPad Construction Truck Game for Kids Age 2-5

Do you miss Harmonix rhythm games that you didn’t have to buy a guitar or other instruments to play? Their PS2 games Frequency and Amplitude might not have sold huge numbers but they did build the basics of their notes-down-a-stream format that came to fruition in Guitar Hero. Harmonix has released a new iPod game on iTunes called Phase.

Phase is a rhythm game that more than a little bit resembles the old PS2 rhythm games of the not-too-distant past, and it does something those games couldn’t. MTV’s First Look at the title confirms the “your music is the game” subtitle, noting that it builds levels from music you add to a specially named playlist. Sounds like a neat idea.

We could use a PSP, 360, and PS3 game that did this given those machines’ storage and music playback capabilities. Does the Wii play digital music files on its SD card reader?

Seen on Joystiq, and MTV.com.
