The Game
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.

The Song List
The Beatles were one of the most prolific bands of all time, churning out memorable hit after hit and this reflected in the song list of The Beatles: Rock Band. From "I Want to Hold Your Hand" to "Get Back," every song in The Beatles: Rock Band comes directly from the Abbey Road master tapes. More than 40 songs are included with the game, spanning the length of The Beatles’ career, with more to follow via download at the in-game The Beatles: Rock Band Music Store for Wii, using Wii points purchased through the Wii Shop Channel.

Platform for Display:Nintendo Wii|Edition:Special Value Bundle
Fun:   
I bought this and while the game itself is a blast, here's the realization I made after reading an online PSA that did the research I should have done myself:

$[...] The Beatles Rock Band Special Value Edition (Beatles Rock Band Game, original Rock Band instruments)

Or:

$[...] Rock Band 2 (Rock Band 2 game, newer instruments with improved design over original Rock Band instruments)
$[...] The Beatles Rock Band (software only)
(Amazon.com prices used.)

Unfortunately, overexcited at the prospect of buying the game for $[...] less than I thought I would have to, the $[...] set with special Beatles instruments being the only available edition previously, I purchased this edition.

So, don't make the same mistake that I did. Definitely get this wonderful game if you're considering it, as just about any review can tell you. But buy the Rock Band 2 set and the software alone, and you'll have better instruments and an extra game for the exact same price.

What a fool I was!

Fun:   
I Was so excited to order & get this game & VERY DISSAPOINTED When I found out the Drum kit & the Guitar were both Rock Band 1 instuments & NOT RB2! You can't add cymbals to the RB1 drums... & Why are they even still offering these when they have the RB2 drums?? Then come to find out the GH Drums & world tour guitar work with this game... So I think I will be returning this kit.. Just stick with the game!

Fun:   
The bundle came with RB1 peripherals! What's up with that! All the while I thought I'll be receiving the RB2 drum kit (I was planning on buying cymbals for it). The guitar keeps on disconnecting during the game! And that is with fresh batteries. I thought at first it was my distance that was the problem but no matter how near or far I get still disconnects during a song! I ended up buying a new guitar (made me spend more)

They should have made clear that this special value bundle comes with RB1 peripherals. It is just a bit misleading. They didn't say they'll be giving RB2, true but that is what they are selling now right? So logically the consumer will think he'll be getting the latest hardware right? I think they are just cleaning old stock that is why they came up with this.

I would not recommend this bundle. To be clear I love the game but this bundle is a disappointment. If you want a bundle just get the limited edition. Or just buy the peripherals individually or get the RB2 bundle then just get the Beatles software.
