I just recently got an XBox 360 and have slowly been building up my game base. I’ve been a fan of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises for years, and have always had to mooch off of friends convincing them to play it again, until now. On September 9th, 2009 Harmonix and MTV Games will release the newest edition in the Rock Band franchise, The Beatles!
The Beatles have always been my favorite band of all time, followed by AC/DC, so let’s just say that in September, I’ll be having a RockBandgasm. The details are few as of right now, but what I do know is that the game will follow the entire career of The Beatles, showcasing songs from all of their albums (although it’s highly improbable that their entire collection will be featured). Also being introduced will be a few new unnamed peripheral “instruments” used by The Beatles on various albums. The game will be available for software only for $59.99, The Beatles:Rock Band stand alone guitars for $99.99, and a limited edition premium bundle for $249.99. The Beatles: Rock Band will launch for the 360, PS3, and the Wii.
I am personally stoked about this release and am already planning on purchasing the limited edition premium bundle.
