Gamer's Temple reports:
''The success of Guitar Hero and Rock Band was sure to spark a surge in music games, one of which is Battle of the Bands for the Wii. However, Battle of the Bands' style of play shares more in common with Dance Dance Revolution than it does with Guitar Hero.
Battle of the Bands features two tracks on either side of the screen that will be fairly familiar to anyone who's played Guitar Hero or Rock Band before, except that in this case the tracks scroll upwards instead of downwards. As a song plays icons scroll along the bar that correspond to different motions of the Wii Remote such as a flick to the right or a quick waggle. The better that you are at nailing each movement when its icon reaches the top of the screen, the better your band plays the current song and the higher your score.''
