Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Incredible Party Game
I originally was against the idea of this game. I didn't think that a music based game could be fun, or give the gamer a feel of being in a band and performing. I was incredibly wrong.

This game is ok by yourself, but where it really shines is when playing with other people. You find ourself really getting into it.

The difficulty goes from sadly easy to mind blowing hard pretty fast, and as with real instruments, it takes a lot of practice to get good at this game.

The song choices are pretty good, although I would ask for some more really well known stuff. The regular updates of music is another genius idea that really keeps this game going. Being able to get new songs increases the life span of the game as you always have new songs to learn and play. I do wish they would add downloadable clothing and additional content for the avatars.

This is an amazing game and I recommend everyone go out and get it. The price tag with instruments may be steep, but it is absolutely worth it.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best offline multiplayer game.
ROCKBAND = FUN.
That's right, rockband is fun for the whole family. It's a great game and the multiplayer mode is even better.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Pretty Good Fun
I only bought the game as we had already purchased Guitar Hero 3 for XBox 360 and had 2 guitars. My son says that Guitar Hero 3 is more challenging in terms of guitar playing but that the songs on Rock Band probably have a broader appeal. He likes both though. I have since ordered the drums to go along with this game. We have not experienced any bugs or glitches playing this game so far.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Feel Like A Rock Star!!!
This game easily ranks top 3 in the greatest and most fun games I have ever played! Rock band does a fantastic job of immersing you into the game and making you feel like you're a Rock Star! The game offers a wide variety of genres (anything from classic rock to punk) in its 58 unlockable songs! Plus it has a great number of songs that can be downloaded via the Xbox live marketplace, which is updated with new songs nearly every week! Rock band is also one of the most excellent games for playing with friends. If you love listening to rock music like I do, and you want to feel like a Rock Star, this game is a must have!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Rock Band Rocks Bands
This is so much fun. I feel like a real rock and roll star. I don't have the drums, but that doesn't mean I can't pretend, right? I like to think that one day I'll get the drums and then I can pretend I'm Phil Collins, and I can sing and drum at the same time. If only there were some Genesis songs.

And I don't mean Sega Genesis.
