EA, Harmonix, and MTV collaborated in order to make a musical simulation game. This type of game was introduced in "Guitar Hero," which only included playing a fake guitar that was plugged into your gaming console. Rockband has added two new instruments: drums and a microphone. The new instruments are expensive but are worth the money in the long run. If you are a social person you can join up with your friends and up to four people can play at the same time. The game is available on the Xbox 360, and the Playstation 2 and 3. The Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions allow online game play and downloadable content, but the Playstation 2 version does not not allow either of these features. With the holidays approaching, this will be a hot item for any future gaming musician.
