5 out of 5 stars Yep, you read that right - get the full starter kit for the price of one guitar!   November 13, 2009

I originally saw this in a large box store for $189, and using my android phone did a price check. Sure enough Amazon was listing the same package for just $99! That's what this box store was charging for 1 wireless guitar.


What's Inside? -
Anyway the kit includes the Beatles game, 1 guitar, drumset, and 1 mic.

What's not inside ? -
You don't get the little frills like the cloth "Beatles" kick drum banner (to make your drum set look official) or the nifty mic stand.

But I don't think those are worth $89, so I was happy to pass them up.

Gameplay -
its great. We are Beatles fanatics anyway, so its great to rock the songs we have been singing for years.

Shipping was fast too, I think it was 4 days from order to delivery.

We bought this for my mother for her birthday because she is a HUGE Beatles fan. She's never played any Rockband game before but it didn't take her long to catch on. True the instruments are all RockBand 1 instruments but for the money I expected that. If you really want the upgraded package buy the upgraded model. As for the game itself, the songs are great and the audio snipits inbween loading is great. I recommend this for any fan of the Beatles. :)

I enjoy this a lot. One thing I have a problem with is getting the guitar to select the options. I spent 15 minutes figuring it out and again the next time too.I havent worked out the kinks. The mic and drums select the options very easily. Great song selections.

I bought this game for my son as an early birthday present. He was so surprised and we set it up immediately. It is easy to learn, fun to play and we have a great time playing the game together.
