2.0 out of 5 stars Buy the Bundle, July 1, 2008
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
I made the mistake of buying just the game and drums since I have 2 GH3 guitars and 2 mics (from Boogie and Idol). You need to have everything Rock Band specific to get it to work correctly. Don't make the same mistake that I did! The game is fun to play, but you'll end up spending a lot more money!

3.0 out of 5 stars Wii Rock?, June 23, 2008
By Michael Kerner "Michael Kerner" (Brooklyn, New York U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
When it comes down to the Nintendo Wii, it has been sad that the past year, the Nintendo mega-system was kept on the sidelines from major music games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Although we did see the Guitar Hero III make its way onto the way, many gamers did complain that the songs only stood out in a mono sound, and not easy to comprehend in stereo sound. That shocked a lot of people, but the gameplay still remianed addictive. Now, Rock Band has made its way onto the Nintendo Wii, after being sidelined from the music scene. While Rock Band shined on the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, the big question is does it really show that it is worth jamming for the Wii, or is this as broken as Axl Rose reforming Guns N' Roses?

Rock Band for the Nintendo Wii, brings in most of the wild action we've seen shine from the PS3 and 360 editions, with the gameplay and songs. While the graphics look great, and bring in the wild appeal we've seen from Guitar Hero III and Rock Band before, not much has really changed to seperate itself to make the Wii really stand out. You stil get the classic songs that were released before like the Rock anthems Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead Or Alive, Metallica's classic Enter Sandman, and the underground hit from R.E.M., Orange Crush. Unfortunately, what makes this edition fall apart for the Wii is the lack of multiplayer action. You can't compete against others players online, as shown in the 360 and PS3 editions, and also you cannot download songs to jam to as extra content. Instead, those downloadable songs that we've played for the 360 and PS3 will be made into seperate Jam Packs discs that will be released starting in July at your local video game store for arouund $29.99 each.

All in all, Rock Band really misses out on so much action and excitement, it really feels like you've bought a mainly broken amplifier for you electric guitar. While the gameplay is more like something you're going to want to rent for the Wii instead, it just misses the mark by so much in the way Wii really want to rock out loud. If there is a sequel, hopefully the people at Harmonix who've made this for the Wii could tweak it up by a longshot so Wii gamers can make it into the big leagues.

Graphics: B

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun for everyone, better than Twister!, October 16, 2009
By Daniel A. Mccormick (Western Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I picked this up with the Wii Beatles release and am so happy to have my kids learning the songs I grew up with! The drums are great, the guitar is better than regular Wii issue. My wife and I held off on electronic games, nintendo, Xbox, all the others because there is no action like the Wii where you stand, jump, and reall move around. Skeptical at fiirst when thei (Wii) arrived, but totally sold now! Don't wait another day, get one NOW!
