Beatles Rock Band

i've never bought one of these music games before, but The Beatles were so great, and the graphics look SO trippy, i might just jump on this. question: i'm a lefty and i know you can flip the guitar over to left handed, but can you switch the wammy bar as well? i don't mind looking dumb with an upside down guitar but i gotta draw the line somewhere (why isn't there a left handed McCartney bass?)

great commercial:

I dont know about the rock band game but I might me buying that remastered Beatles box set that is coming out next week.

YEAH I CANT WAIT TO INVITE ALL MY FRIENDS ROUND SO WE CAN TWAT AROUND IN FRONT OF MY GIGANTIC TV WITH PLASTIC TOY GUITARS

THAT SOUNDS LIKE A REALLY FUN THING TO DO

First, fuck all the haters - this is more than just your typical Guitar Hero/Rockband game, and even if it was, those games are fun, ESPECIALLY with a group of friends. If you're more worried about looking silly in front of your mates with a toy guitar in your hands than having a good time... then there's no hope for you.

I played this past weekend at Best Buy on a HUGE LCD TV, and I gotta say, it was an experience - I actually had more fun watching people play so I could enjoy the backgrounds and effects.

The reason this game differs from GH/RB is the game is a musical journey though the Beatles' career - you start off in the Cavern Club in their early years, all the way up to their final performance. For the years they didn't tour anymore, "dream sequences" with visuals set to the songs fill in the gaps in their career.

The other reason is you get to hear the tracks with the audio separated - apparently this was quite a task since when their early songs were made, multitrack studio techniques hadn't been invented/the norm yet, and much time was spent taking the masters and pulling out the individual instruments. If you're a Beatles fan, there's really no reason you shouldn't be giving a game like this a try.

when i bought britney's dance beat, i was hoping for the best. im not that dissapointed!! i also own the GBA version, which is totally different than the PS2 and PC versions. the PC version, is very close to the PS2 one, but with extra features, like Free Play, where u can make up ur own choreography, and Britney Quiz, with over 100 different britney spears questions. i bought this game because i am a britney fan, and i recommend it to all of the other britney fans across the world, because u can sing along to her songs, and dance to the choreography. i give it 4 out of 5 because there is not that much songs to choose from.

rock band lol

i got enough of that in high school

except we actually played the instruments

roomie is going to buy this. eventually, he's berroke.

HEY! BDB (Britney's Dance Beat) is a quality game!

I'm sure if they made a game called Aphex Twin- Knob Hero (bc he is a knob) you lot would line up to jerk off in front of the demo unit.

I have a hard-on for those beatles remasters coming out next week

I think I might pass on the Rockband because there is no way I can afford them both.

September should be The Beatles month. :)

fuck the remasters. what's wrong with the original records? (apart from being hugely overrated)

he's a witch!

as a massive beatles fan, i will probably be buying this

i've been following the trailers and every time a new one comes out i get as excited as a small child

$250. no.

I agree, this is a bit steep, but consider it does come with drums, two guitars, and a mic with stand - and, if you already have Rockband, the instruments from that will work, so you're only out the 60 bucks for the game.

Where they'll get you is with the DLC - supposedly two whole albums will be available shortly after the game comes out.

Only one guitar comes in the set, Paul's bass. Others are $100 each.

Ah, my mistake - when I saw this picture,I thought it was the set for 250.00.

WOOOOO

beatles are awesome

Rickenbackers are awesome

however, I can't get into rock band. Every time i've played that or guitar hero i just feel so frustrated that i'm not actually playing the songs with an actual band. Also knowing how to play songs that are in the games really does y head in and i have a hard time calculating the button pushing and finger placement as my brain is telling me to play it, not game it. Maybe one day it will click as i know people really enjoy these games.

I'm actually watchign a beatles doc on VH1 right now that's a promo for the rock band thing. It's so strange any time i watch a documentry or beatles movie, i always end up with my guitar on my lap. Not specifically playing beatles songs, but just playing. I guess they just hit that tick in my brain that unleashes being a muscian. idk

I feel like john lennon would really like this guy -->

The Beatles remasters are actually leaking on the net as I type this.
