The biggest band in the history of music is making their video game debut exclusively via Rock Band. Made with the full backing of the surviving Beatles, and the families of Lennon and Harrison, this is no expansion pack but a full-bloodied standalone game filled with special features.
 Every era and song is covered, from 1960 onwards |
 Work through the Story mode and unlock exclusive content |
 Even the likenesses have been authorised by the band |
 The gameplay works just the same as regular Rock Band |
Featuring an interactive voyage through The Beatles' career, the game includes not just their most memorable songs but also venues such as The Cavern Club, Abbey Road Studios and surreal dreamscape settings.
The basic gameplay is similar to Rock Band 2, with players able to play along as virtual band members on either guitar, vocals (including harmonies for the first time) or drums. Do well and you can unlock video and audio clips - some of which have never been released before in any other medium. For any Beatles fan this is the most exciting new experience to arrive in decades.
Key Features- 100% official: The one and only video game to feature The Beatles and created with input from the band and surviving family members such as Dhani Harrison.
- Classic 45s: Includes 45 master recordings from the entirety of the band's career, from I Want to Hold Your Hand to Here Comes the Sun.
- All sing together: For the first time in a Rock Band game up to three people can sing vocal harmonies together, if you dare!
- Beat the Beatles: As well as the main story/career mode you can also play any of the songs in competitive modes such as Tug of War and Score Duel.
- Period graphics: Stunning visuals recreate the band in all their many guises, as well as authentic venues and psychedelic new dreamscape stages.
For years this U.S. developer toiled away in obscurity, with critically acclaimed but commercially unsuccessful music games such as Frequency and Amplitude. Then they made Guitar Hero and the rest was history. They were bought by MTV Studios in 2006, when they started work on Rock Band.

Having already purchased the game and used it with my guitar hero accessory. it was great to get the microphone (with stand), bass and drums, so we could have our own fab four. The wireless bass is a lovely replica, and comes with the solo buttons (unlike the guitar herio) so it can be used as bass or lead. The wireless drums are a electronic drum kit supplemented with a "Bass Drum". This is simply a nylon sheet with a springy wire frame. Not functional at all, but nice to look at. That said there is an embossed bass drum pedal that feels very real. Maybe if you has a real bass drum you could stick it on for the authentic look. The Microphone stand is fully adjustable and can accomodate my 6 year old daughter and myself at wither limit. The microphone itself is wired.
The only disappointment is the bass and drums are not compatible with band hero/guitar hero games, so should you would need to purchase more accessories for these. However the overall quality of these accesories is so good it would be hard to justify unless they come out with Band hero slade and the super yob guitar!
Wrong product. Not the one described!!!!!

I purchased the beatles rockband LIMITED EDITION. I received the SPECIAL EDITION. There is a hugely phenominal difference! Seller should have known. My fault. You or her don't ship out of U.K., but I have a friend in Liverpool who it was sent to.After several e-mails they found the most inexpensive shipping to me in Canada. I had to send my e-mails to them because someone wanted proof of purchase (not included)at customs (apparently) so they would let it leave the country. It is my own fault. I paid 119 gbp for the item and another 89 gbp for them to ship it to me. They obviously did not know what I purchased as they are not that technologically advanced (ie: they don't play video games or whatever) as they are in their 60's. P.S. He actually saw the BEATLES live! They were trying to plan to come here and visit us as we did with them and I told him over the phone that w were going to have some real fun with this. I cannot tell them nor my wife, though if it is set up which it will not be that I received/purchased the wrong item. I have had a generally excellent conversation/response until after all this that I have spent a lot of money on the wrong product. If this was what was advertised...Honestly, I would be in my glory and so happy! It's all I really wanted and spent months trying to get the right item. Sorry to have a run on story! At least it's not a run on sentence! lol! Have to laugh. Don't know what else to do. Sincerely, Stephen Culley.

I purchased this for my grandchildThe Beatles Rock Band - Limited Edition Premium Bundle (Wii)ren.
The one who wanted it is 7, and he is a bit young to use it properly, but still enjoys it.
His older siblings really do enjoy it.

Fantastic game, I just love playing the drums. I bought it for my husbands 54th birthday and fortunately he loves the guitar or we would be fighting! I bought the value edition for my brother which is excellent value for money. Having bought both I would recommend the value edition. In my view the premium edition doesn't add much apart from some unnecessary and rather dubious styling. The guitar is nicer but doesn't work any better and I actually prefer the plainer look of the value edition drum kit. The premium edition does include a microphone stand and the guitar and drum kit are wireless which works very well, so if wireless is important to you then go for the premium edition but it costs more!
