Rock Band: Beatles Edition


My early prediction for best selling video game during the 2009 Holidays? The as of yet untitled Beatles video game which will be modeled after the best selling Harmonix series Rock Band. While many of the specific details are still unclear, it's being reported that players will be able to sing/drum/play guitar and bass as each member of the band throughout their career beginning with songs from Please Please Me and ending with songs from Abbey Road. Instruments from the Rock Band and Guitar Hero series' will be compatible with the game but there will likely be (unnecessary) Beatles-themed peripherals sold with larger game bundles when the game is released in late fall '09. For now the biggest question is which tracks will be included. It's been reported that the game will be comprised of 45 Beatles tracks, which is a fact that lends itself to the prediction of sequels. Surely there are more than 45 Beatles songs worth adding to these popular rhythm based video games, no? As long as it includes Helter Skelter I'll be first in line.
