Amazon.co.uk Review

The biggest band in the history of music is making their video game debut exclusively via Rock Band. Made with the full backing of the surviving Beatles, and the families of Lennon and Harrison, this is no expansion pack but a full-bloodied standalone game filled with special features.

Every era and song is covered, from 1960 onwards
Work through the Story mode and unlock exclusive content
Even the likenesses have been authorised by the band
The gameplay works just the same as regular Rock Band

Featuring an interactive voyage through The Beatles' career, the game includes not just their most memorable songs but also venues such as The Cavern Club, Abbey Road Studios and surreal dreamscape settings.

The basic gameplay is similar to Rock Band 2, with players able to play along as virtual band members on either guitar, vocals (including harmonies for the first time) or drums. Do well and you can unlock video and audio clips - some of which have never been released before in any other medium. For any Beatles fan this is the most exciting new experience to arrive in decades.

Key Features
  • 100% official: The one and only video game to feature The Beatles and created with input from the band and surviving family members such as Dhani Harrison.
  • Classic 45s: Includes 45 master recordings from the entirety of the band's career, from I Want to Hold Your Hand to Here Comes the Sun.
  • All sing together: For the first time in a Rock Band game up to three people can sing vocal harmonies together, if you dare!
  • Beat the Beatles: As well as the main story/career mode you can also play any of the songs in competitive modes such as Tug of War and Score Duel.
  • Period graphics: Stunning visuals recreate the band in all their many guises, as well as authentic venues and psychedelic new dreamscape stages.
About the Developer: Harmonix
For years this U.S. developer toiled away in obscurity, with critically acclaimed but commercially unsuccessful music games such as Frequency and Amplitude. Then they made Guitar Hero and the rest was history. They were bought by MTV Studios in 2006, when they started work on Rock Band.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definate purchase for your xbox music collection, 9 Sep 2009
By Mr. Paul Thompson "pault24" (Belfast, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Like alot of people I have been a fan of the Beatles for a good while now even know I am an 80s child and they where a good while before me.
Now to the point, this game is amazing, if you like Rock band and the Beatles then you must get this game. Set list is great, visuals are very good and the extras that include pictures, videos and sound files are an excellent bonus.
The game works exactly as Rock band except the visuals are better and you can get access to all songs from the get go.
The only negative I would have is that they didnt include the most liked Beatles songs on the disc such as Hey Jude or Let it be (my fav), however im sure these are being kept for DLC and as the Beatles have so many great songs there are plenty on the disc.
With the announcments of DLC full albums being available over the next 3 months i know i will be spending alot of MS points.
If you own the xbox 360 instruments then this game is a must for your collection

4.0 out of 5 stars Great game...but you might have to buy more peripherals, 12 Sep 2009
By J. Wall "jimboblink" (South Wales) - See all my reviews

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
If you love the Beatles music, then you'll love this game.

Please be aware that if you buy this game for the vocal harmonies, you will need a USB microphone for each singer (assuming you want to harmonise locally and not online) - it does NOT support the Xbox headset as a microphone. I've ordered the MadCatz one listed on Amazon.

Also, if you want three microphones plugged in you'll either have to plug one in the back of the Xbox (not an option for me as I have the Wireless Network Adaptor plugged in) or use a USB hub. If you bought rock band (band in a box) in the past then you should have a little USB hub. Otherwise you'll have to get hold of a USB hub (apparently any one will work, but it most likely would need to be a powered one).

4.0 out of 5 stars Rock Band Beatles. A Real Challenge!, 12 Sep 2009
By Mr. Ph Sharp "Pog" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Well, despite certain comments, so far, i have found that, The Beatles Rock Band has been a superb, intricately detailed, full on challenge!

Doubtless, some may, in bravado, like to kid you that this game is a doddle to play well.

No it isn't. However it rewards effort and practise more than adequately.

I was around in the early 60s and have been a fan of the Beatles for all of the life that i have lived and remember. Some 44 or so of my 48 years.

I know all of the songs very, very well indeed. I must add that having the full drumkit, guitar and mic made it a blast to mess with. Allowing me to alternate mic and instruments as i explored the games deeper depths.

What i, as a forty plus year Beatle fan failed to appreciate, up until now is, just how superb Ringo's drumming was, and quite simply how good and, how difficult Beatles harmonies really are to get right.

Right from the opening cartoon esqe and latter psychedelic Walrus parade you will be hooked on this game.

Pay no heed to idiots who say it is easy and takes four hours to complete, it's utter tosh! I await the UTUBE video of it!

Given the amount of songs here, just do the maths yourself. I don't think that half of these fools played the game at all. Leastways not seriously.

Maybe these people played the game on easy mode. Which is, in no way easy, i hasten to add. Not to play or sing perfectly anyway.

This surely is what the game is all about, pitting your wits against individual fab four members and their instrument playing/singing abilities.

The game has a very smooth and fairly forgiving learning curve on the easier setting, which makes player/s want to strive to achieve better performances.

It is also a fair learning curve for those who know little about the Beatles and their music. A tad hard for a start, but the game soon opens up to those who know little or nothing of the Beatles and their music.

I guess most who have appraised this game so far, simply wanted to queue up to be first to have their say about it.

I guess they have had their fifteen minutes of fame by now then!

How sad for them, still if you are a fab four fan or just want to have a great experience, playing a game that gives a solid challenge, then look no further. You have found it.

I doubt that, at this moment in time, you could do better than to buy this game. Guitar Hero world Tour i have, it's ok. I prefer GHII myself, but this...

STREETS AHEAD, just like Rock Band was.

If you can't play drums or harmonise after playing this then you truly are lost musically.

You can still enjoy music though. But hey you must be good at something right!

In my opinion this game is a worthy purchase.

One slight downer for me though, no Eleanor Rigby or Norwegian Wood. WHaa...t why!
Hmm i suppose i may have to cough up for that one later then!!! Not too chufded there.

All the best, enjoy Nempster.
