The game itself is OK if you like that style of music game but enhanced by the Beatles soundtrack and story.

The outro to the game is just as impressive as the intro, take a look for yourself:

Glad to see that the quality of the incidental elements of the game were not scrimped on.

One of the surprises for me (although on reflection I don’t know why I should be surprised) has been the music game genre with massive titles such as Lips, Guitar Hero and Rockband. I am an avid Lips player as I was blessed with the voice of an angel (or so I think after a bottle or two of wine) and I have been known to pick up the ‘fender’ on Guitar Hero on the odd occasion but I had never been drawn to Rockband…….until now:

My Dad loved the Beatles and I grew up with them and the stunning animated trailer for this game makes me feel that I gotta have it. Love them or hate them the Beatles had a massive impact on music worldwide and this 2 minutes and 40 seconds of cinematography has summed up their changing styles in a nutshell.

The games is released on 09/09/09 and the Xbox 360 is my console of choice and the combination of the Beatles music, my angelic voice and the stunning 360s HD graphics means enjoyment is assured (well mine is………..I can’t vouch for the neighbours!)
