Amazon.com Product Description
The world's leading music game meets the greatest band in history. The Beatles: Rock Band gives fans what they've been waiting for: a chance to experience the Beatles' legendary story from the inside. In The Beatles: Rock Band you won't just watch and listen as The Beatles make rock history, create landmark records and conquer the world-for the first time, you'll be part of the band. The Beatles software is compatible with Rock Band, Guitar Hero and most other instrument controllers, as well as third party microphones including SingStar and Lips.
Join John, Paul, George and Ringo on-stage at legendary shows, behind closed doors in the recording studio, and in dreamscapes that bring the psychedelic imagery of the latter stage of their career to life. The acclaimed Rock Band elements of interactive play and full-band capacity are here as well, but with brand-new additions. One of these is full three-part harmonies, which challenge you to recreate The Beatles’ vocal blend — a first for any music game and facilitated by the game's support for up to three microphone controllers. In addition, the game supports custom-built controllers modeled after the actual instruments that the Fab Four played, and eventually helped to make iconic, audio straight from the masters and graphics that take you on a magical tour through the key moments in The Beatles history. Produced with the full cooperation of The Beatles and Apple Corps, the game is packed with hidden fab extras that will push you and up to five of your friends to master the songs both online and offline in order to hear rare audio and view unseen photos from the archives.

Xbox 360 The Beatles: Rock Band - Software Only Reviews
| 98 of 106 people found the following review helpful  Fantastic, Amazing game - or should I say Fabulous!, = Fun: This review is from: Xbox 360 The Beatles: Rock Band - Software Only (Video Game) I just finished playing through the entire Beatles: Rock Band game on medium level. I was blown away in so many ways. We have all the various music games, many for several platforms, and this by far is our new favorite.First, of course, the music. We have always loved the Beatles and playing through this game just reminds us how amazing these guys were as musicians. There's the "outliers" theory that they had amassed 10,000 hours of playing time with their high intensity early years, which speaks to their superb ability to just pick up and run on any stage. Whatever it was, their harmonies are superb, their rhythms are great fun. Bob (my musician boyfriend) commented that playing along with the songs was great. Often we have to force ourselves to play through a song on other games (even songs we like) because the coded buttons just aren't enjoyable, the coders get the rhythm a bit off. Here I was dancing along while I played guitar or sang. There are 8 chapters...

I received the game 10 AM day of release. Thank you UPS and Amazon!Fantastic game. Even the transition screens between songs have been lovingly crafted. Every inch of the game is very well thought out. Make sure to get MULTIPLE MICROPHONES! The singing include three part harmonies that are very fun, we spent the first few hours of the game just singing. If you can still find it, I recommend buying the " Lips two microphone bundle," as it costs the same as the single packaged Xbox 360 wireless mic (and it includes TWO of that same mic--as well as the LIPS karaoke game.) You know how most music games have three, maybe four songs that you LOVE to play? Well, EVERY song in this game is like that. It's magical. 14 of 15 people found the following review helpful Fab! Fab! Fab!, By Rick (Houston, TX, USA) - See all my reviews = Fun: This review is from: Xbox 360 The Beatles: Rock Band - Software Only (Video Game) I can't top the previous review but I can say that I agree 100% with the 5 star rating. The music is fantastic and very well adapted to the game format. The graphics and the realistic animations are superb. I grew up in the UK when the Beatles were just getting started and remember "Beatlemania" very clearly. This brought back the old tingles as I played the songs all over again and was swept along in the nostalgia of the lovingly recreated backgrounds.We played last night as soon as the package arrived and got to the first Abbey Road session - I'm looking forward to the rest of the game and then trying out the vocal harmonies etc. If you like the Beatles music (who doesn't?) and enjoy the challenge of Rock Band or Guitar Hero I would say go ahead and get this game...you will not be disappointed. Now where's my old copy of Sgt Pepper??! |
