Helter skelter

It's hard to say. Helter Skelter was my first instinct, and Twist and Shout, if they decide to put it in the game, could be the hardest on vocals...or it could be the easiest. The End would be pretty hard too, though the hardest songs are probably the ones that force everyone in the band to sing while also playing their own parts.

I highly doubt there will be alot of really hard tunes. This game is more about having fun with all visuals.

the game is not about how hard it is, it's about enjoying the career of the beatles and the music.

There's not going to be crazy hard stuff on guitar, but neither will it all be easy. If they put The End on there, then there will be an extended guitar solo that is actually played by three different people switching off, which could be potentially challenging.

But yeah, the game is about having fun with some of the best pop tunes ever written. If you want a challenge, I suggest mastering harmony while playing.

Come on, guys. Have you ever actually listened to "Helter Skelter"? It's an easy song to play on real life instruments. It's not going to be crazy difficult on plastic ones.

It is also, however, insanely fun to play on actual instruments so I'm sure the fun will translate to plastic.

I agree with Harrison. If you guys are looking for a traditional challenge, you'll probably be severely disappointed. It's about having fun "playing" and listening to some great music with friends. I mean, regular Rock Band is like that as well, but a lot of people seem to become really preoccupied with metal songs and whatever is at the top tier difficulty. I, on the other hand, really like playing the song "You're No Rock n' Roll Fun" because it's catchy.

i just thought i wiould ask about the difficulty i love the music the beatles have done and im happy to play it, but a challenge is needed otherwise it will be like listening to a cd.

uh... no it won't. It'll be like singing and tapping along to a CD with several other friends.

I mean, you've played Rock Band before. It'll be exactly like that, except with vocal harmonies and 100% awesome Beatles music.

I would think "Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except for Me and My Monkey" would be a challenge for drums, at least compared to other Beatles songs. If they put "Love to You" on there, it could be hard for guitar, since it's actually a sitar playing.

Out of all the currently announced ones, Back in the USSR looks the hardest. We'll see what happens when they announce the next few Beatles tunes.

If they chart both guitars, And Your Bird Can Sing could be hard on guitar.

Rain is probably one of the harder songs on drums, if included. It's a single, so who knows. While My Guitar Gently Weeps will probably be one of the tougher guitar songs. Dig A Pony might be a little challenging on all instruments. Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby might be on bass.

The bass line in Back In The USSR seems pretty hard.
Along with (Of course) Helter Skelter, I'd say While My Guitar Gently Weeps would be very though with the guitar, even because, if we wanna seriously be Harrison, we are supposed to be singing too.

From what I've seen thus far, Back In The USSR will probably have a difficultish drum chart. It's not going to challenge the FC Impossible-tier song crowd, but I think it is going to be tricky enough to keep most people interested. It seems like it is going to have a lot of reasonably fast bass pedal action.

I was thinking maybe While My Guitar Gently Weeps too; but Harrison didn't play lead on that. Eric Clapton played lead guitar with Harrison doing backing so he could focus on vocals....I guess they're not likely to make a Slow hand stand in animation are they?

Rocky Raccoon will be tough on vocals

The biggest problem with the latest trailer was that it didn't show enough of the note charts, thus making it difficult to say which is going to be the hardest, although difficulty means little to me compared to variety. Probably an unannounced song.

Don't let these guys badger you into changing your mind. If challenge is a key part of your enjoyment of Rock Band (and for many it is) then this game will not likely provide that element.
