The Beatles Rock Band

I love the game Rock Band but I only play it when I have someone to play it with me. If not, I'd rather play Guitar Hero. The guitar on Rock Band is not that great but as a whole it's a fun social game.

I'm also a big fan of the Beatles so when I heard the Beatles version of Rock Band is coming out I was very excited.

John, Paul, George and Ringo will be onstage at legendary shows, behind closed doors in the recording studio, and in dreamscapes that bring their psychedelic imagery to life. But this edition of Rock Band doesn't only have different songs. It will be the first music game to offer harmonies, challenging you to recreate The Beatles' vocal blend. The instruments are also different. There will be three replicas of the instruments used by The Beatles.

The instruments include:

John Lennon's Rickenbacker 325 Guitar
Sir Paul McCartney's trademark Hofner Bass
Geaorge Harrison's Gretsch Duo Jet Guitar
Ringo Starr's Drums with classic black oyster pearl finish and Ludwig-branded Beatles kick drum head

If you're in the United Kingdom you can get the game for free by going here. The game will be released on September 9, 2009 (09.09.09), just like John Lennon's favorite number - 9.
