we love it, we went and bought a second guitar and now the whole family can play. I definately recommend this game, I think my husband and I play it even more than the kids

Lots of fun with the kids!

I'm not much of a gamer since the 80s but this is a good one. The boys (10&13) and I have a great time on it. I used to play the drums and Rock Band drums are surprisingly challenging, certainly the most challenging instrument for a non-drummer. Bought some Vic Firth sticks at the local music shop that are a little more lively than the RB ones. Visiting friends had a good time too! The singer gets to add points by playing tambourine/cowbell/claves with the mic. It would be nicer if that was a separate instrument for the Wii remote to give more people a chance to join in. My 10 year old drives us crazy by humming rather than singing on songs he's never heard and getting high score albiet in "easy". I've never played RB on any other platforms nor have I played Guitar Hero. While the game for Wii was still somewhat scarce Amazon had a great price and it arrived quickly and in good shape.

Rockband Rocks!

My son loves the game, we just wish it had more songs. Also the 4-USB Adapter broke the first week.
Lots of fun to play!

A good family game

We purchased this game for the kids, after a simple unpack and setup the kids were having fun. It took only 15 minutes before we (the parents) were also playing and having fun. It is good to see a game where the more you cooperate and work together the better your score vs going against each other. I would definitely recommend it.

I haven't played Rock Band for other gaming systems, aside from Wii. I have played Guitar Hero on other systems--and they are MUCH better than this Rock Band. There aren't enough songs on Wii Rock Band. There is no personalization--you can't modify your band's characters, the videos are the same each time...My husband is so disappointed, he quickly gave up and left me to play by myself. Defeats the purpose! The song list is so short--and there are no directions that say how the song lists work--you have to work through each level/act to access the next set of songs.

What a bummer.

the product is a lot of fun. my son had actually started taking drum lessons as a result of playing rockband. however, we had to replace the drum pedal with a wooden one purchased on-line and already had to return the drum pads to EA for a replacement. So, while the software is terrific, the hardware is not well made.

I am Amazed!

I bought this from the Amazon place for slightly damaged items, and so I was expecting something wrong, but there wasn't. The only thing wrong was that a corner was smushed in a bit, which literally affected nothing because everything was so securely packaged, if anyone is wondering whether everything will be fine, YES! they even put everything in an extra box to ensure nothing happened. I highly reccomend this item (Rock Band) and this seller, because you cannot beat the price. I saved $50.00.

A lot better gaming choice for the family

We own guitar Hero and Rockband. This is a lot better choice for the family for 2 major reasons. First, the graphics on Guitar Hero are terrible. They are not appropriate for kids. Second, on Rock Band lets you play longer before you get booed off, giving the smaller kids more of a chance to figure the game out. Beyond these two major things it is just a lot of fun for everyone, with several features that we enjoy!

THE WHOLE FAMILY ROCKS OUT
