4 of 5 Rock Band Review Wednesday, March 25, 2009
Father of a gamer from Atlanta, GA
Great set. Easy to assemble, easy to understand, easy to play. Just wish the system were wireless. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 All ages LOVE Rock Band Thursday, December 04, 2008
Carrie from Cedar Hills Utah
Our family is so glad we moved up from that "guitar only" game. Rock Band lets up to 4 people participate at the same time. Even better, you can set the difficulty on each of the parts (guitar, bass guitar, drums, & vocals) individually, so players of different levels can play together. Only negative I have heard is that the guitar is harder to use than the guitar hero ones. There are teenagers constantly playing the game, and we have even had grandma & grandpa rockin' out. Tons of fun. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Rock band for Nintendo Wii Thursday, October 16, 2008
Michelle V from Aliso Viejo, CA
We bought Rock band for our Wii a couple of weeks ago. It was delivered in time for a big party we had at home. It was so much fun having our guests sing and play along with Rock Band. I was actually pretty good at the Guitar, what a fun game this is, very interactive. Now I just wish they would make a small guitar for kids - then my 4 year old can be a Rock Star with his Nintendo Wii. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Rockband Review Monday, September 01, 2008

5 of 5 Great design and a lot of fun! Tuesday, August 05, 2008
Granzlam from Lake Worth, FL
I love this game but Ill cut right to my negative issues. First, there was a tremendous delay for the vocals and drums (especially on fills/solos) that the calibration couldnt fix. It was so bad that we couldnt sing. I have my Wii plugged into a 42 LCD flat panel and Rock Band instructions said these new TVs (LCD and Plasma) could be a problem. The fix for me was to change the Wii audio from going into the TV to going directly into external speakers. Now everything works great! I wish it came with two guitars (for both guitar and bass). I went out and bought a second guitar (which is affordable). Lastly, the words are hard to read as they move across the screen.
Otherwise this game is awesome. The songs cover a wide range of styles and eras. The graphics are very good and the instruments work very well. We try to refrain from pounding on the drums and over doing it on the guitars. Though they are solid, they feel like they could loose sensitivity if over played. Sometimes this is very hard to do because after all, its Rock. I really love the design of the guitar. Its a stand-alone controller (you dont insert your regular controller into the body like Guitar Hero) and the two sets of colored buttons on the neck are a smart idea. My 7 year old struggled with the regular buttons (because his hands are a bit too small) but the smaller buttons higher on the guitar neck are perfect for his fingers, hands, and arm length.
