 Best offline multiplayer game. May 12, 2008
ROCKBAND = FUN.
That's right, rockband is fun for the whole family. It's a great game and the multiplayer mode is even better.
 Pretty Good Fun May 10, 2008
I only bought the game as we had already purchased Guitar Hero 3 for XBox 360 and had 2 guitars. My son says that Guitar Hero 3 is more challenging in terms of guitar playing but that the songs on Rock Band probably have a broader appeal. He likes both though. I have since ordered the drums to go along with this game. We have not experienced any bugs or glitches playing this game so far.
Feel Like A Rock Star!!! April 7, 2008
This game easily ranks top 3 in the greatest and most fun games I have ever played! Rock band does a fantastic job of immersing you into the game and making you feel like you're a Rock Star! The game offers a wide variety of genres (anything from classic rock to punk) in its 58 unlockable songs! Plus it has a great number of songs that can be downloaded via the Xbox live marketplace, which is updated with new songs nearly every week! Rock band is also one of the most excellent games for playing with friends. If you love listening to rock music like I do, and you want to feel like a Rock Star, this game is a must have!
Rock Band Rocks Bands March 25, 2008
This is so much fun. I feel like a real rock and roll star. I don't have the drums, but that doesn't mean I can't pretend, right? I like to think that one day I'll get the drums and then I can pretend I'm Phil Collins, and I can sing and drum at the same time. If only there were some Genesis songs.
And I don't mean Sega Genesis.
A must have for any music fan! January 30, 2008

First off, the only reason I didn't give this game 5 stars was because it doesn't come with the guitar unless you buy the full package for $[...], which is muy lame! Anyways, the game itself is an absolute blast! There is so much fun to be had playing this game that cramming it all into this review won't even come close to doing it justice. Multiplayer is awesome and should be experienced by all! My only real gripe with the game is its lack of hardcore rock tracks from bands like Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet for my Valentine, Buckcherry, Sevendust, etc. Other than that the game is great!
