The Beatles: Rock Band looks amazing

I prefer the H1N1 version of Rock Band.

Yeah, but the only song you can play on that one is "Piggies".

So I played the demo version of this yesterday at GameStop and it was...kind of incredible? The graphics are nuts, the gameplay is really smooth for Harmonix, and the window of accuracy for hitting notes is a bit larger. (It's my only complaint about Rock Band. Guitar Hero has much better peripherals.)

The CGI John Lennon at the end of this is creepy, but my excitement to play this game remains strong.

They should've had him walk around with a CGI sanitary napkin on his head.

No sitar songs? Weak.

"It's All Too Much" would've been a great choice.

A plastic sitar would have ruled.

Also a plastic harpsichord and the inclusion of 'Piggies', or a plastic Tuba and the inclusion of 'Martha My Dear'

And when RockStar Beachboys comes out, there better be a plastic theremin.

That's the funniest thing I've read all day.

Actually, "Within You Without You" is included, so there is some sitar...

Picking it up tonight, cannot wait to play this.

On a side note, it was said somewhere that apparently Sun King /Mean Mr. Mustard are bound as one playable track, as are Polythene Pam / She Came In Through The Bathroom Window. Ignoring the weirdness of always playing Mean Mr. Mustard immediately after Sun King... Is it just me, or did Polythene Pam / She Came In Through The Bathroom Window just preemptively become the most fun song to play in the entire game?

[Me!]

So far I've had more fun watching the game rather than playing it, just because the visuals are so great.

I'm not dogging on the gameplay though, because it's well done too.
