If you know anything about video games then you know Guitar Hero is awesome. OK, not just awesome but really F'N AWESOME, baby! Who doesn't want to play with a sexy game guitar controller and be a part of a virtual rock in your own living room, eh? All that is cool but Rock Band here by EA Games takes... review »

In this new game for Sony's Playstation 3, you are a newbie rocker who is out to make it big, so you play a variety of gigs, playing a diverse medley of cover songs to the best of your abilities, earning money to buy characters, bonus tracks, and am assortment of other things.

I really love this game - the opportunity to sing and play drums as well as guitar is outstanding!  The ability to create your own characters and build them solo careers as well as have them play in the band is great.  I wish there were more songs of course.  The choices to buy right now are rather limited.  From a singer's perspective some of the song choices are just bad.  I do not enjoy singing a lot of the songs.  I am singing on expert so it is not like I can't hold a tune,but some of the songs just are not good to sing.  Still overall - can't get enough of this game!!

   I have always been a huge fan of Guitar Hero, so it was an absolute must that I tried out Rock Band.  The games are quite similar in style, but Rock Band was the first video game that gets the whole band together.  I have never really gotten into playing with the whole band, so I never purchased a band kit.  Typically when I play the video game I am alone.

   The song selection on Rock Band is incredible.  I feel like on a similar difficulty as Guitar Hero the games are quite a bit easier to play.  The one thing I did not like about this games is that in the career mode you had to...

Love this game with all my dorky little heart and soul!
I love having the option to play with a lot of friends all at once or by myself. For the most part the song list is great and growing every week (new downloads every thursday!), though sadly lacking in songs with female vocalists. This is not to say that anyone can't sing any song, as you can go up or down the octave as long as you're still on pitch, but that switch can be awkward in some songs.
Drums are a blast, but uncoordinated people like me beware! It may take a few tries to get the hang of it. Don't give up!
Guitar/Bass is pretty much...

I am not very fond of the game Rock Band. It seems completely pointless to me! I see it as a way to wast money and time.

I thought guitar hero was okay, so I thought maybe rockband would be more exciting. But I was dissapointed. You can sing, play guitar, or drums. I don't like the singing at all. It is not really about your singing skill, you basically just have to figure out how to cheat the game and there you go. The guitar feels strange and seems much more cheap than the guitar hero guitars. I haven't played the drums, but have seen someone do it and there seems to be no technique to it.

I absolutely love rockband. At first, I debated on buying it because of the price, but it was really worth it. Me and all of the kids can all play together. I was amazed to find out that even my 6 year old can get the hang of everything. I didn't thing he would be able to figure out the guitar or the drums, but he loves it. My kids can spend hours at a time taking turns on each instrument.

The only thing that I could say negative about it is buying more songs. I know you can purchase songs online, but I have a dial-up connection which takes forever to download stuff, and I do not have the wires...

Rock Band Rocks! It is the most fun for the whole family and all your friends, even the little ones and the really old ones! The skill levels make it possible for everyone to play! I know 3 little kids under 2 years old that LOVE to jam (1 on drums and 2 on guitar!) with or without their parents. That's when they can get a turn in, there's a line of folks waiting for their turn here! If you like to sing or play guitar, bass or drums this game is the best! There are downloadable songs from every genre so there is always "one of your favorites" available for download to play! I do mean every genre!...

This game is pure fun. If you have played guitar hero before, the same developers that made the previous two games are the creators of this one. They have taken the best aspects ofthe guitar hero games and expanded them into a game for an entire band. With a frontman(or woman), Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, and Drums; people truly get a feel for what it is like to play in a band.  From the various game modes and interchangeable band members, this game will last the test of time.

With the addition of new downloadable content every week, the game feels like an interactive Ipod.  Currently there are...

The PS3 Rockband game is an awesome game. I play this game with my brother and my husband's friends and it's blast. I would recommend the wireless one just because I have a 3 year old and he runs around a lot. Wires for the drum set aren't long enough. I play all instruments but the drums are my favorite. The glitch is the singing part. It's programmed to where you just have to get your voice just right to score even if you're not singing the right words. I had hoped that it would be like karaoke to where you had to get the notes right and also the words. You know whatI mean.......Other than that... review »

what more can i say but "ROCK ON!" This game is great for the young and old. Not only can you make an a$$ out of yourself, but you can do it with style. The game is very nice and has some great features, but the biggest part i want to talk about is the DLC (download content) this is one of the first games to come out with DLC and keep it coming every week. I know so of you think it is to expensive ($0.99 - $1.99) a song, but being able to pick and choose what songs you want to play/download is amazing. The song selection is not to bad either. You can get anything from Grateful Dead CD, to Disturbed's...

Rock band is a rock band in a box! If you take into account that you are obviously not going to get true rock-band quality sound from the drumset, microphone, etc. included, then you can have a lot of fun with this game/simulator. I think it's just as much of a simulator as it is a game as the developers intended for someone with no musical ability to be able to go to a real drumset and play it well just from practicing using this set. And it's true...I had never used a real drumset before, and after just a few days using Rock Band was able to impress a neighbor who owns a good quality set.

Purchased a PS3 about three weeks ago for a cool new game to try with it I got Rock Band- the coolest game ever!

I got the set-up that comes with the game, drum set, mic, and guitar.  Have already gotten so much playing time out of the system and the game.  Great song selection and even if you are like me and can only play certain things on easy it's still a blast!  Great for guys and gals and fun times for havin people over so everyone can be part of the band.

I reccomend this game for anyone who likes to have fun!

Rock band is an adrenaline pumping game that will leave you wanting to play more and more after hours of rocking out. It is amazing how fun it is to simulate being a rockstar playing your favorite songs with your friends. Not only is it a fun game but it has a large variety of music to be played for rockers of all tastes. I highly advise getting this game wether you are a hard core rock fan or if you just enjoy music or playing instruments.
