I can't believe I just did this, but I just played through the game (story and encore) in one session, with a little help from my friends. It's now 4:12 AM here. Am I exhausted? Yes. Do I feel a bit...

do you think they would do the live tv broadcast performance?

Yes, you are.

He's saying "side b, or the medley," as if referring to the same thing. He's just using two different names for it. It's not an either/or situation.

Great article!

God, I hate things like this that can't even get the conspiracy craziness correct.

9/09/09 backwards is NOT 6/6/06. It's 90/90/9. If you flip it upside down, then you get 60/60/6.

I also read...

Awesome.

So, yeah, there seem to be a lot of issues here beyond just the playing of Beatles Rock Band.

I say take your woman out. The game will always be there. Sure, it's the Beatles, and...

why not try a rubber sole?

hahahaha, ah, i'm going to go cry myself to sleep now.

yeah, i just called mine after reading this (i'm in los angeles) and they said they are having a midnight launch, with the line starting at 10 PM.

I'm really stoked. Hope yours works out.

12 - The Beatles intentionally played music.

it makes sense. if you look at the cavern club songs, there's a song for john, a song for paul, a song for george, and a song for ringo. seems like a good intro for the group for story mode.

to be perfectly honest, when i first heard the whole 45 number, i was a bit underwhelmed, just because i was so used to the RB/GH 70 songs and up thing. But considering it's by far the most songs by...

Knowing Harmonix's attention to detail, I bet they would still require unique animations, just to make sure each Beatle looks like they're playing and singing their part. But I agree, probably...

I was confused by the chart just because they were saying works with "all" Rock Band instruments and "most" Guitar Hero instruments, but it seems to work with all of them.
Maybe they're just saying...

Do I wish there were more songs on the disc? Of course.

But I was playing Rock Band 2 yesterday, and I noticed that while I have well over 130 songs in my library, I tend to play about the same...

On Hilary Goldstein's (of IGN) facebook, he mentioned how he'll be spending the 3 day weekend writing a "Beatles game review" for Saturday and a review for the remasters for Tuesday.

So at least...

Hmm, almost done reading the list of the worst 5 songs. Better take a sip of this piping hot coffee before I read the worst...
*spit*
WHAAAAAAA?

Cool story, Hansel.

Thanks for posting them!

I watched a couple (Hey Bulldog and Lucy) and, boy, am I even more excited for this game. They really do look incredible, and those are by far not even my favorite...

Does anyone know if there's an official list of what stores are doing midnight launches? I can't seem to find one.

If I have my druthers, I will be playing this game next Wednesday morning at 5...

you should probably just get RB:2 bundle off of amazon. It's 99 bucks. You get that, plus TB:RB and it's a total of 160, shipping should be free, no tax, and you get wireless instruments.

My best guess in terms of actual discs would be the DLC albums released on disc (it would work kind of like the ACDC track pack) to accommodate those without an internet connection. Keyword is guess....
