So You Think You Can Rock?

I am amazed how no one has thought about pitting players against armed with a guitar, bass, drums and their vocal prowess against each other before, but developer Harmonix obviously has a gem in their hands with Rock Band. This game is more about cooperative multiplayer than anything, because obviously you cannot form a rock band all on your own! Players basically team up in a rock band to create performances and gain the highest scores together as they play a medley of 40 officially licensed musical tracks.

If you already own Guitar Hero and think that getting Rock Band is a waste of time, do rethink your decision. The guitar in Rock Band is a little larger and sports a longer neck than Guitar Hero’s. Most notable differences are the bigger fret keys and a secondary set of buttons that lets you perform solos. It also have built-in effects switcher which lets you incorporate echo, flange and other effects into the songs you play.

Overall, this is a great party game. Those who play it will not be bored with the endless opportunities of switching roles in their “rock band”. Karaoke anyone?
