Rock Band 2 is a music video game developed by Harmonix Music Systems, as the sequel to Rock Band. Rock Band 2 allows up to four players to simulate the performance of popular rock music songs by playing with controllers modeled after musical instruments. Players can play the lead guitar, bass guitar, and drums parts to songs with "instrument controllers", as well as sing through a USB microphone. Players are scored on their ability to match scrolling musical "notes" while playing instruments, or by their ability to match the singer's pitch on vocals. Rock Band 2 features improved drum and guitar controllers, while supporting older controllers, as well.

GameSpot 9.0            

Stellar presentation and vocal harmonies help make The Beatles: Rock Band something special in the world of music games.

 

GiantBomb 10.0            

A loving tribute to one of the most influential pop groups of the 20th century with an abundance of catchy, recognizable songs to make up for the gameplay's relative simplicity.

A beautiful tribute to one of rock's greatest bands offers a too-short experience for a premium price.
