Join John, Paul, George and Ringo on-stage at legendary shows, behind closed doors in the recording studio, and in dreamscapes that bring the psychedelic imagery of the latter stage of their career to life. The acclaimed Rock Band elements of interactive play and full-band capacity are here as well, but with brand-new additions. One of these is full three-part harmonies, which challenge you to recreate The Beatles’ vocal blend — a first for any music game and facilitated by the game's support for up to three microphone controllers. In addition, the game supports custom-built controllers modeled after the actual instruments that the Fab Four played, and eventually helped to make iconic, audio straight from the masters and graphics that take you on a magical tour through the key moments in The Beatles history. Produced with the full cooperation of The Beatles and Apple Corps, the game is packed with hidden fab extras that will push you and up to five of your friends to master the songs both online and offline in order to hear rare audio and view unseen photos from the archives.

shawn gorsuch
i enjoy rockband and guitarhero but the ones where the focus on just one band i like more. here was the beatles game,its very good, if you like beatles theres no excuse why you shoudlnt like this. wish there was a few songs in it they missed out on but they have so many great songs. wish they added ,pennylane,all my loving,strawberry fields forever. but theres still many great songs in the game. i found this game to be easier then previous music games.
fun for everyone April 26, 2010

I loved this game. The tutorials are great, and the awards are fun to get. I love the trivia tidbits that come with each photo that you can unlock, and it makes it more interesting and fun to really get all of the extra video footage and photos. The game is not that long, and the downloadable content is limited. It would be nice to see some more of their work put up as downloadable content, including songs like "Hey Jude". Also, the harmonies capabilities is groundbreaking, unfortunately you need to buy another microphone (or two) to use this feature so I have not used it yet. I would definitely recommend this game to anyone!

Love it! I never listened to the Beatles, but I now have an appreciation for the music, and my kids like it too! Lots of fun to play, especially if you can get a whole band together!
 Great fun, a bit too short March 30, 2010
The Discriminating Fangirl (Nomadic)
First off, if you're a Beatles fan and like Rock Band, this is a great game. The selection of songs is great; though there are a few big ones missing (I'm sure they'll turn up for purchase later), the songs that come with the game are nicely varied, from their popular hits to a few album cuts. The graphics are gorgeous, and the gameplay has been improved (thank goodness they cut out the stupid percussion stuff for the vocalist!). I especially like the harmonies mode; you can try your hand at hitting those high notes, but if you can't make it, you can switch down to a lower harmony or the melody without having to restart the game.
My only complaint is that the great song selection is pretty limited, and the story mode is very short. We finished it off in about four hours, which is SUPER fast compared to the other Rock Band games so far. I was hoping for something a bit longer than that.
Aside from the shortness, it is a very fun game, and did I mention that the graphics are gorgeous? I'm glad I play vocalist so I can watch them while I sing. The animations are especially fun when you get into the later levels, when it melts from the band playing in a studio into trippy, psychedelic daydreams. If you're a Beatles fan, you're going to love this game. If you're not so big on the Beatles, it probably won't impress you as much.
Lots of fun March 30, 2010

Haven't played a ton of this yet (I think we've made it through 3 levels of the Story Mode), so far it is great though! So many good songs on game, that every one is fun to play.
