Uh

That's spoken word. It's not pitch relevant. One should not be surprised to see monotone getting by without trouble there, although the phoneme failure is a surprise given Harmonix's previous announcements.

Also: it could easily be on a lower difficulty.

But that aside, vocals suck and are not a worthwhile contributor to the quality of the game as a whole. They're a gimmick as far as I'm concerned.

ps ur fanboyism is showing Squeek-- GH's vocal system hasn't even had a chance to be as closely scrutinized, yet your intention is that GH is better in this respect (that is to say, you say "[mic] is horribly dumbed down in RB2", and by specifically saying "in RB2" even though the topic is already about RB2, you indicate that you are comparing RB2's vocals to something else-- presumeably GH-- that is less "horribly dumbed down").
