    Rock Band was the first band-based rhythm game I'd ever played so this was a little bit of a grey area to me. However I was impressed at how quickly I picked up and learned the game, the controllers and the mechanics of gameplay.

    Rock Band is a great game. The presentation elements are top-notch and take music games to a new level; consider the bar raised.

    Rock Band has one thing going for it: the necessity to having friends to play and the willingness to work together. It may not be enough for everyone to drop 170 bucks on the game and equipment, but I can say if you even remotely have thought about this game, it is worth it.

    It’s a tool set that will be revitalized every time a new song pack is released, and with all the improvements over the Guitar Hero formula, one that will eventually become the de facto standard in music and rhythm games. For those who can foot the bill, Rock Band delivers a gaming experience that’s simply like no other.
