A great game!
Well, to start off this is one of the best family friendly games I've seen this year. It blends all types of cultures together with interesting tunes and inspiring lyrics. The only reason why I chose "Not enough content" is because it lacks some of The Beatles' songs we know and love the most. Repetitive gameplay is seen too, but that's not necessarily a bad thing considering the fact that you're having too much fun to care. Anyone who is a fan of the previous Rock Band installments will have no trouble picking up this game and giving it a go. Ultimately it's a great buy, and it really captures the essence of bringing the family together through video games.
