Is Lego Rock Band overrated?

[Mikachu]

its definitely worth 20 bucks but the set list has its share of crappy songs...

Don't forget the plenty of great songs.

This game impressed me enough to never doubt Harmonix ever again, it convinced me to buy Green Day: Rock Band the day it came out, and convinced me to preorder Rock Band 3, I have played Rock Band since day one, actually Guitar Hero since day one, and playing Lego: Rock Band taught me that Harmonix can literally do no wrong, they are the Polyphony Digital of Rhythm Games.

Is lego rock band any good? I haven't gotten it, and I don't know if I should. There are good songs, but I think it's kinda stupid with the lego characters and the fake guitars. Is the game worth twenty bucks?

I think the real question is do you like the setlist? I mean, if you already own RB, then why would you want to swap discs to play different songs? I already regret buying TB:RB because it never gets played anymore. We all like the Beatles, but not enough to swap the disc and completely disrupt our gameplay.

I think it is definitely worth it just to export the songs (like AC-DC RB), because I like a lot of the songs on the setlist. That is for you to decide for yourself.

So worth it. Best way to make Rock Band kid friendly, AND it has a pretty good tracklist. I couldn't recommend at $50, but at $20 you should pick it up, even if it's just to export. Of course $10 would be better... But I'm a cheap bastard.

No wrong?... I think some Wii owners will have to disagree, and people that don't like Green Day, and people still wishing for RB:Japan, and those that paid $50 for the 30 tracks in GH:80s... HMX is great and all, but don't say they can do no wrong.

and people that don't like Green Day or The Beatles

Went ahead and fixed that for you.

I would think that those that don't like the Beatles can still understand why they got their own game. Not so much with Green Day.

[KEWB]

It was underrated if anything.

EDIT: Also, if you like the setlist but don't like the theme of it, why not buy and export?

No export announced means it doesn't hurt anyone, and are there really any bands more deserving of their own game than The Beatles from a cultural as well as a musical perspective? Even if you don't like them, you have to at least respect what they accomplished in such a short period of time.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the ability to export (or the lack thereof). Some people are against band-specific games, period. They think that all they do is over-saturate the market. (After a certain point, I'd have to agree.)

Regardless of how influential the Beatles are, if you're against band games, you're against band games, and thus Harmonix has done wrong by you.
