Rock Band: Solus Software

Experience the unique thrill of making music with a group of friends, without ever having to learn a note. With Rock Band, you each assume a role in a virtual band as either the guitarist, bassist, drummer or singer, and take up arms against the toughest tracks that the rock world can throw at you.

Choose your Rock Band attitude – rock, punk, metal, or goth – then mix and match wardrobe elements, from post-apocalyptic armour to jackets tailored for Sergeant Pepper himself. Every outfit, hairstyle and instrument in Rock Band comes in a choice of dozens of colour combinations, and you can create custom shirts, face paint and Rock Band logos with a layered clip-art system!

When it's time to launch your Rock Band career you can go for it as either as a solo artist using guitar, drums or the microphone – all three are included in the Rock Band In a Box package – or form a rock band with your mates.

In Rock Band you can tour the world's stadiums as a four-piece band, light up stages as a power trio, or Rock the Casbah as a tight drum and bass rhythm section. As long as the band leader remains in the session, you can add or subtract rock band members on the fly as you're challenged to complete gigs of various lengths and difficulties.

Four-player Xbox Live support means any of the Rock Band musicians can QuickPlay jam from anywhere (the singer's vocals aren't transmitted – the other players hear the pre-recorded vocal track). And if you’re not the co-op type, each instrument in Rock Band can engage in head-to-head Tug of War or Score Duel matches.

Rock Band is a rare and beautiful blend of science, social interaction and passion. Suddenly, multiplayer rhythm-action gaming becomes much more than merely seeing who can make the least mistakes. As each musician hits the buttons, smacks the pads, or matches the pitch, they'll in turn support and even save their bandmates. And when the rock band is locked in together, adoring fans audibly sing along to your performance. Co-op gaming has rarely been so rewarding as Rock Band.
