Did Paul McCartney just pull back the curtain on the upcoming Beatles music game under development by Rock Band impresarios Harmonix? In the newest issue of Entertainment Weekly, the legendary musician revealed that the Beatles game will follow the exploits of the Fab Four over their storied careers.
According to McCartney, "It will feature different periods of the band -- you get early days, Liverpool, then psychedelic, and on from there. It's very cool. And I like the idea that the game introduces kids to music, you know?"
"The rhythm action game is probably the best example of a genre which killed itself through market saturation. "
The Marb looks back on The Beatles: Rock Band and assess whether the rhythym action game did the legnedary band justice.
VGW's Brian Shea: "The notion of downloadable content is commonplace in today’s landscape of launch-day DLC and season passes, but prior to 2007, to have a legitimate, laid-out plan to support a console game post-launch was not a common occurrence. Harmonix, a company that was in the midst of a transition away from the most popular franchise in the industry at the time, Guitar Hero, had a vision for a brand new IP that would eventually revolutionize the concept of downloadable content."
We all do it – well those of us of legal drinking age; invite some friends around, have a few drinks and then break out the console to get our video game on. According to Craig Bryan; here is a list of the perfect alcoholic accompaniments for a night of fun and frolics.
Journey kinda makes you wanna smoke, methinks. Well, for those open-minded individuals who don't just condemn the act, like myself, I can see Journey turning a person's view introspective, and a certain drug allowing for some rather insightful revelations.
(For the record, I've smoked three cigarettes- I was drunk- and one cigar in all my life.)
playing games drunk is the worst thing ever, reactions are to slow and falling asleep and leaving your console on all night! wake up with 5000 messages, take away food all around you and feeling like poop looking at your online stats wondering how bad you played :( bad times
I'd mostly only bother with music and sports games , the rest not at all , besides indeed buzz
i need to find out more about this game i was hoping it would have a story mode like this so you can get through all the varieties of there music, god i can not wait any longer for this game!! my 360 rb 2 broke and now i have to get it for my new ps3 but it'll be worth it all when this game comes out, wonder if any new instrument would come with, paino maybe or harmonica on the mic haha
make George & Ringo really kick ass. An online deathmatch mode is always a plus, as well.
would love to see a rockband beatles version er something.. would be pretty cool
I have been waiting for this game forever.
Harmonix really took their time. Sargent Pepper era ftw.
Man. Its going to be dope playing Helter Skelter.
to make a Beatles game, they will over throw GH as the number one music game. I know for one I would buy RB just for this. The Beatles have such great songs, CD's like Revolver or SGT. Pepper, classic. Would all be great to play with no actual musical talent.
