Gamers rejoice as The Beatles Rockband hit stores on Sept. 9. It is the latest edition of the Rockband franchise. Rockband is a game that allows users to play as a band. Users can play as singer, guitar, bass, or drums.
The game will feature arguably the most popular and greatest band of all time, The Beatles. It is available on all three of the large gaming systems, Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii.
Rockband has sold more than 13 million copies since its inception in 2007. Combine the popularity of Rockband and the band with the most record sales of all time and the result is excellence.
Unlike other Rockband’s where the user starts off as a nobody band and works their way up, the user is actually The Beatles and goes through their career as it actually happened. The game will feature all of their hit singles such as I Want to Hold Your Hand, Day Tripper, Twist and Shout, Can’t Buy Me Love, and many more.
The game allows the user the ability to access old photos, never heard before snippets of dialogue and more with great performances. The thing that makes this Rockband so special is that users have the ability to play with up to three microphones so they can harmonize just like the Beatles did so famously.
This gives users a new challenge with the ability to sing and play at the same time and harmonizing as one. The sound quality in the game is amazing. The one issue hardcore Rockband fans might have is that the difficulty of the songs aren’t that hard because The Beatles were never known for their crazy guitar solos and so forth.
Gamers should pick up this game as the story mode and quality of the songs will leave them happy for hours on end.
