Rock out with your (insert instrument here) out
Rock band is a game that harmonix has expanded on from thier previous game, guitar hero. You play as 1 of 4 instruments, mic,drums and of course guitar/bass. The guitar gameplay is pretty similer to the guitar hero franchise, i which you hold a coloured button and strum along to the stream on your tv. Drums on the easier difficulltys dont really remind me of drums more like keep a very basic rythem, but on the higher difficulty's it can get really intense because most if not all the notes hit are mapped out in the game. Singing is pretty similer to sing star, you just try and keep the tone along a line and complete phases os the song for points. The grapics in rock band are nothing really special, dont get me wrong there good, but most of the time your not paying attention to the background, but i suppose its nice to have. Rock band also get downloadable songs (DLC) every week, it can be 4 song by different people, an entire album or a track pack dedicated to a particuler artist or genre. Over all my experiance with rock band was incredibly fun and i reccomend it to anyone with any remote interest in guitar hero, singstar or drummania. I should also mention this is my first review. =)
