delet... Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Amazing stuff! http://www.thebeatlesrockband.com/trailer.php if only you could plug in real instruments .. it would be a powerful teaching tool ... this kind of karaoke concept idea leaves me flat though ..

Guest Drahken Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 These kind of games provide a lot of lulz when you encounter people who think they can play guitar because they can do it in rockband. The same goes for people who think they are leet dancers because of DDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest beatfanatic Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 i wanna see a track-list for the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Dylan Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Real instruments would be massive, some sort of karaoke/learning tool for real playing. Just imagine how easier and "cooler" it would be to learn Paul' basslines instead of going by ear. Give the game tools to learn tablature and partitions slowly that way! But that wouldn't be as "fun" for the ADD generation. Anyway, going back to that game, there are 292 official Beatles song. Which one will make the cut?

I don't think it's ADD-ish to want to play like a rock star/musician, and not want to invest the time in learning to play decent, especially for entertainment value. If anything, I think they should include features similar to what you're referring to (they already do in Rock Band 2 with the drum trainer parts), to give those who are interested in music a chance to learn the real thing. I like these games a lot since they act like a 'gateway drug' for young kids to want to learn real music and instruments (my son is proof; he's been hinting at a bass guitar for his upcoming birthday). i wanna see a track-list for the game When I saw her standing there I Want to Hold Your Hand I Feel Fine Daytripper Taxman I Am The Walrus Back In The U.S.S.R.

The full game will feature 45 tracks spanning their career. And yes, you are right - they are going to make a shitton of money off this with releasing "full albums", at well more than what they would sell it for at retail as a CD ('cause it's interactive and all, natch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 The nice thing is, if you have Rockband 1 or 2, the instruments should work - you'll just need extras if you want to do triple vocals, or three guitars, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohh well I might just borrow the guitars and drums from a friend who has rock band but doesnt play it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alzado Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 ! looks awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 ! looks awesome Yeah, to get what you see there (plus a mic and the game), it will set you back 540USD. Fucking INSANE. The other guitar (the bottom one, I think) will be also sold separately for 99USD, which is 40USD more than what they sell the standard RB guitar for. Sure, it looks awesome, but for essentially a toy guitar? I dunno... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alzado Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 yeah, that's a total rip. its plastic buttons do the same thing, after all. i've stopped buying video games in lieu of tropical fish. so i'll be passing this one up, awesome though it does seem.

kaini Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 holy shit do want i actually got a bit overexcited watching that - there aren't many bands besides the beatles who can do that to me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Dylan Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 One thing that a lot of music fans are talking about, is the fact that we are going to get seperated audio tracks for the songs. That is already amazing by itself, bootlegers and Beatles fans are drooling. There is a 4-track seperated audio for a couple of Sgt. Peppers in circulation and its amazing.

I got a bit misty-eyed when "here comes the sun" came on. Beautiful. "Here comes the sun" is one of my favorite Beatles song ever. I always thing George Harrisson had so much potential but he was always under utilised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 The top one is Lennon's Rickenbacker 325 guitar, the middle is Harrison's Gretsch Jet guitar, and the bottom is McCartney's Hofner Bass, which is sold separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
