Rock Band (Wii) Reviews

Firstly, I think I should point out that I'm not a massive fan of computer games in general. I bought a Nintendo Wii about 2 years ago, but other than a few goes when friends are round, its spent a lot of time gathering dust underneath my telly.......at least that was the case until I discovered Rock Band. For anyone who's not exactly ...  Read the complete review

This game is one of the most fun and enjoyable games on the market. It is thrilling to experience what it is like to be in a band. There are four drums and a bass pedal on the drum set and 5 keys on the guitar and it incluses a microphone aswel. You can either buy all of these in one package or buy each instrument seperatley. A few disadvantages ...  Read the complete review

My daughter was delighted when she walked into the shop and purchased Rock Band. It is a great game, I must say. I have learnt to be more amidextrous. Playing my Strat on the left setting, even though I am right handed. I can play just as well. My daughter had always wanted a Fender Stratocaster of my own, and this Christmas she is telling me she ...  Read the complete review

I bought this as a birthday present for my boyfriend who was already a big fan of guitar hero and it really didn't disappoint. This game is so addictive and great for us normal folk who know we'll never be in an actual band but through this game we get to pretend just for one night that we can rock along with the likes of oasis and ...  Read the complete review

The basic idea is that you and your friends (you can play solo too) are members of a rock band. Gameplay involves playing through a song and either "failing" (being too bad and getting booed off) or successfully completing the song. There is an initial outlay because you need to buy the right equipment for the game - namely ...  Read the complete review

Rock Band on the Wii is a great game for all the family. It is excellent as 3 or 4 people can be involved all of the time, its excellent for having a laugh and is great for all those wannabe rock stars out there. It takes a bit of getting used to but after a while you gradually get better and better and after a while you can start to unlock more ...  Read the complete review

Rock band is exciting. It is the sort of game you can play for hours and hours, and hopefully improves your cognative brain power as well. Or at least, that's what you might think. You might also think it helps improve your ability to improve musical instruments, but it doesn't. Maybe you'll feel like a better drummer, but ...  Read the complete review

A lot of people have written a lot of negative presss about Rock Band on the Wii, primarily centred around the fact that's it's basically just a PS2 port and lacks all the extras (online play, downloadable content, game modes) that are an intergal part of the other next gen versions of the game, but.... It's still a great game, and ...  Read the complete review

I was given Rock Band as a present. I used to play the drums in a band for 10 years and gave it up a few years ago due to injury. I always told people I missed playing them and wish I hadn't sold my kit. So this was the idea behind the gift. The game itself is excellent, I've always liked Guitar Hero on the Wii, but the ability to have ...  Read the complete review

This is one of the best games I have ever played. I had to wait a few weeks to play this but it was more than worth it. After discovering that I also had to buy a USB hub to be able to use the two instruments and a microphone at the same time, we were set up and ready to go. The actual setting up did not take long and after going through the ...  Read the complete review

I like the musc alot on this game but can get abit boring if you dont have a group of people around, the game is easy for me, not that challenging and the equipment can play up alot or get in the way. I love the singing you really do get into it, but this game seems very pricey to me and personally i prefer guitar hero. But really catchy ...  Read the complete review

To tell you the truth I expected this game to have more features than it did, especially with the price tag of (converted valut exchange) 200$ for the instruments + 70$ for the game. The prices in Europe are ridiculous! ...OK. Enough about the money and more about the game. As far as the game goes, I expected better. Now since I did this ...  Read the complete review

Rock Band! I recently bought this game for my Wii with my Christmas money and really enjoyed playing it alongside my friends. You do however need to own the Wii guitar, drum kit or microphone (preferably all 3 if you wish to play multiplayer). I also believe this game is only fun if playing with a group of people and can ...  Read the complete review

I bought this as part of a package deal for just under £100 which I must admit seamed a lot of money at first but once I opened the box and started playing I soon realised why it's so expensive and it's definately worth it. As part of the set you get a drum kit, a guitar, a microphone and the software. Drum kit- The drums are very ...  Read the complete review

Rock Band (Wii) When my brother first asked me to play this, i thought oh great another game like the Guitar Hero but oh how i was wrong... Soon as we got playing it, i was hooked! My brother took on the drums ,my other brother took on the guitar and I took the microphone(despite not being able to sing!!) The choices of songs ...  Read the complete review

Good Points - Loads of songs! - Great fun with friends! - Massive downloadable content library with great potential. Price I Paid: £129 Bad Points - Expensive! - I know it's a matter of opinion but there is a lot of mediocre generic music, like "the killers", "the smashing ...  Read the complete review

I purchased the Rock Band Band In A Box from Game as it was on offer a month or so ago, and I would say it's almost the best game I own. Having been a big fan of the Guitar Hero series, it was the next logical step for me to take. I have to say I wasn't disappointed. The build quality of the drum kit is of a very high ...  Read the complete review
