Lego Rock Band
So those little silent people that are made out of plastic, not content with having their own Batman and Indiana Jones games now have their very own Rock band game.
If your not familiar with the concept of Rock Band and its big rival Guitar Hero are kinda like karaoke for the new millenium.Depending on the add ons you have (microphone, guitar, drums), you play and sing along with the well known tunes included in the game and score points according to how well you perform.
The obvious twist here is that even though the tunes are real the on screen characters are Lego versions for example Blur (complete with mop tops - Too funny!).
This adds to the amusement factor and makes it very accessible to children. I had fun playing even though I'm grown up now (" Erm...that's debatable!" - Producer Woman) and if you already have the grown up version the lego edition is fully compatible with the previous versions and add ons.
There is a healthy selection of well known chart hits to sing to and you can export songs to play back and show off to your mates. So all in all there nothing ground breaking or new but a good continuation of a popular franchise.
There are hidden costs however because the game comes with no add ons and won't work with at least a microphone which has to be bought seperately. So half a joystick off for that means a resonable 3 out of 5 joysticks.
