The Beatles: Rock Band is a 2009 music video game developed by Harmonix Music Systems, published by MTV Games and distributed by Electronic Arts. It is the third major console release in the Rock Band music video game series and is available on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii consoles. The game allows one to six players to simulate the performance of songs by The Beatles by providing the players with peripherals modeled after musical instruments (a guitar peripheral for lead guitar and bass gameplay, a drum peripheral, and a microphone). The gameplay mechanics of The Beatles: Rock Band are similar to those found in other Rock Band games.
On-disc track listing
The game disc features 45 songs chosen from twelve of the original UK-released albums by The Beatles, in addition to "Hello, Goodbye" and "I Am The Walrus" from the US version of Magical Mystery Tour, the mashup track "Within You Without You/Tomorrow Never Knows" from the 2006 remix album Love, and several non-album singles.[1] Though "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" and "With a Little Help From My Friends" are considered as two songs, they can only be played back-to-back within the game. All songs except "The End" are playable immediately in Quickplay, while in Career mode, players complete through the songs in an historical order. Regardless of game mode, each song is played in a specific venue. Most venues are based on famous Beatles' performances, such as their first appearance on American television on The Ed Sullivan Show or their concert at Shea Stadium. For the Abbey Road venue, each song has a unique "Dreamscape"; the song will initially start with The Beatles in the studio, and then dissolve into the imaginative Dreamscape inspired by the song.
The 45 songs included on the game disc are as follows, with the year and album the song was published on, and the associated venue:[2]
Template:EntSongs are only playable back-to-back as a single track.[3] Template:EntA mashup of the two songs, originally from the Love album. Template:EntNot initially unlocked in Quickplay, only achievable through completing Story mode.
Downloadable songs track listing
All individual songs are priced at $2.00 (160 Microsoft Points/200 Wii Points) and are available for download through the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live and the in-game Music Store on the Wii. The first album to be released as downloadable content, Abbey Road, is priced at $16.98 (1360 MSP) as a whole.[4] Downloadable songs will also have specific venues that they can be performed in, including new Dreamscapes.
Template:EntSong will be available as a time-limited exclusive on the Xbox 360, and will be available to the remaining consoles on December 10. Template:EntSong will also be available as part of the Abbey Road medley, which is included with the purchase of the album pack.[4]
