The Beatles: Rock Band Coming Very Soon

I’m not really a big fan of Rock Band. Well, call it biased if I liked Guitar Heroes more. You can’t blame me because of the fact that they featured Metallica on one of their features. But the reason that I made an article about this is because of my love for The Beatles’ hits. I’m a 1960s and 1970s music fan. I usually listen to Neil Young, Beatles, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix and a lot more.

Rock Band reveals a list of 19 songs by the Beatles. It includes the classic hits “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” and A Hard Days Night”. Also included in the list are “Ticket to Ride”, “Helther Skelter”, “If I Needed Someone”, and “Drive My Car”. There are actually 45 more unveiled songs by MTV Games and Harmonix, the developer of Rock Band series that lets fans play the plastic guitar or drums.

“The Beatles: Rock Band” is set to be released on September 9 worldwide. For years, Beatles’ hit lists weren’t available in the Web sites such as iTunes. The game will be compatible with Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and Nintendo’s Wii. It has also been said by MTV Games that the game was creatively conceived by former Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, as well as the wives of late Beatles John Lennon and George Harrison, Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison respectively.

The Beatles were among the most influential band in the history and sold more than 600 million albums worldwide including “Help!,” “Revolver,” “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” “Abbey Road” and “Let It Be”. Rock Band left one mystery title from The Beatles.

I hope either of the gaming companies would feature music artists such as Jimi Hendrix or Neil Young in the near future.
