My Life in Black and White

This looks amazing. The Beatles own version of the popular Rock Band franchise is coming to stores on 9/9/09 and from what we’ve seen so far it looks good. Real good. The gameplay should be more or less exactly the same as seen in Rock Band 2. The story mode promises to take the players on a journey through the career of The Beatles from the Cavern Club to the rooftop performance during the recording of Let it Be. “Dreamscapes” are used to represent songs from the studio era as we see the Beatles in the studio and then a visual representation of their song. The best part (or maybe the worst if you’re watching) would appear to be the addition of three part harmony support. This means that you and two other of your friends can try to sing in awesome beatle harmonies while also playing guitar, bass or drums. Or, you could have 6, yes 6, people play the game at the same time. Nice.

45 songs are apparently going to be included on the disc with Abbey Road being released not too far in the future. Can’t wait for 7 minutes and 43 seconds of I Want You. As much as I’m not looking forward to forking out 250 dollars for this one its inevitably going to happen. Oh man.
