Developed by Harmonix, creators of the blockbuster Guitar Hero franchise, Rock Band is an all-new platform for gamers ready to take on the challenges of the Rock & Roll lifestyle. Instruments available to players are guitar, bass, drums or vocals as they hit the road as either an aspiring superstar solo act, or for the first time in game genre history take on the true collaborative and challenging nature of music as they form a band and jam together in multiplayer action. Either way players will need to master their stage presence through the various game modes and polish their rock chops via the unrivaled Rock Band song list if they hope to make it out of the garage, into the clubs and finally on to the main stage.

What's In the Box
Rock Band Special Edition for PlayStation 2 comes with everything you need to get you rocking right out of the box and includes: 1 wired guitar (for guitar & bass part), 1 wired mic, 1 wired drum kit peripheral, plus software, USB hub, drum sticks and guitar strap.

Extensive Game Modes.
Rock Band delivers four music games in one - challenging rockers to master lead guitar, bass guitar, drums and vocals through the five separate game modes.

  • Tutorial Mode: Master the basics! No need for experience. Pick your weapon of choice and ascend from beginner to rock god.
  • Practice Mode: Perfect your tune! Breakdown any part of any song at your preferred speed before hitting the main stage.
  • Quickplay Mode: Instant fix of fun! Jump into any unlocked song for some quick jam time either on your own or with other players.

5 out of 5 stars review   August 30, 2010
pucho23

5 out of 5 stars Rock Band Rocks!   August 15, 2010
Mimert (Akron, Ohio)
This is pure and simple fun. We play with the kids and have a blast. Listening to them sing songs that we grew up listeining to is a hoot! We have all discovered what instrument we want play in our next lifetime. I would prefer all the instruments to be wireless,not just the guitar, but we only have a ps2. I'm sure that is an option as an additional purchase, but have not looked into it as of yet. This is a good way to spend a rainy day/evening with the kids, (or when they are in bed and dad and I tour alone!)


1 out of 5 stars Would not let me play!!!!   August 2, 2010

I recently bought this game for the PS3 from my local game shop and I tried to play it today. When I selected the Solo Tour mode, a window popped up saying it couldn't detect a USB microphone and told me to plug one in. I don't do the vocals in the game, I strictly use the guitar controller to play the game. So in the end, I would not buy a single Rock Band video game for the PlayStation 3 ever again. If you want to play Rock Band, either play it on the Nintendo Wii or the XBOX 360.

This is a fun family game. The only complaint I have is that the song selection is kinda short so I would recommend the new version.


5 out of 5 stars Pretty freakin' sweet.   June 22, 2010
Christopher J. Ryan (Greenfield, IN)
Even though the song selection is not as good as rockband 2, it still has tons of good songs to play or add to your rockbamd 2 library. The PS3 license to sync the songs to rockband 2 is only 5 bucks on the PS3 store. After buying the game and license it was still only 15 bucks to add 40 (I don't know the exact amount) plus songs! Great for getting a party started, and gets you away from repetitively playing a song you hate on rockband 2. I love it!
