Developed by Harmonix, creators of the blockbuster Guitar Hero franchise, Rock Band is an all-new platform for gamers ready to take on the challenges of the Rock & Roll lifestyle. Instruments available to players are guitar, bass, drums or vocals as they hit the road as either an aspiring superstar solo act, or for the first time in game genre history take on the true collaborative and challenging nature of music as they form a band and jam together in multiplayer action. Either way players will need to master their stage presence through the various game modes and polish their rock chops via the unrivaled Rock Band song list if they hope to make it out of the garage, into the clubs and finally on to the main stage.

5 out of 5 stars Rock Band Special Edition   January 8, 2009
Jason D. Weekley (Hueytown, AL USA)
Great game. I'm glad I purchased the special edition because it had everything we needed to open the box, connect all components and start playing immediately. It was so easy my 10 year old set us up in 5 minutes. The whole family has played this game together and allowed us to spend some fun times together.


5 out of 5 stars no acessories available for upgrading drums   January 7, 2009
Linda L. Wiest
We really enjoy the game but when we went to upgrade the drums with cymbals there were no connections to do that. So I quess if you want drums with cymbals you have to buy the Rock band 2 drums!!!!


5 out of 5 stars BRILLIANT !!!!!   January 6, 2009
Oilfield Hand (South America)
We got it for Christmas. The whole family plays together switching instruments and singing. Great family fun, without shooting or violence. If you are thinking of a game that gets everyone all together to play and share quality time, this is it.


4 out of 5 stars Enjoyed RockBand 2   January 6, 2009
K. Miko (Pittsburgh PA)
I bought this for my 11 year old son. I hooked everything up for him and he asked me to try it. I wasn't too interested, I'm not much for video games but tried it for him and I had a blast. My 15 year old daughter who wouldn't be caught dead playing a video game joined in and loved it. I've never seen Guitar Hero so can't compare but this was well worth it, alot of fun.


5 out of 5 stars Great!   January 6, 2009
Maricela Jimenez (Sylmar, CA)
I bought this for my 11 year old. He loves it and takes turns playing the drums, guitar, and on the microphone. This is a great game even for adults!
