It's the time of year when all the newest games and technology is previewed as part of the E3 Consumer Electronics Expo. One of the biggest pieces announcements today was the presentation for the game "The Beatles: Rock Band. The game was announced with Paul and Ringo in attendance (shame they didn't play the instruments, or better yet swap instruments). The game looks like a lot of fun, and many is the music fan who gets to prove whether they can, in fact, out drum Ringo. On September 9th, they'll get their chance. Check out the trailer below.



The game promises "first-of-its-kind music-based video game offers a revolutionary tour of The Beatles' music, career, and legacy." The selection of venues span from their beginnings in the Cavern Club thru Shea Stadium up to the final rooftop concert. And the instruments replicating the actual instruments The Beatles played look gorgeous.




The first 10 of the 45 -song track listing have been released:

01 "I Saw Her Standing There"
02 "I Want To Hold Your Hand"
03 "I Feel Fine"
04 "Taxman"
05 "Day Tripper"
06 "Back In The USSR"
07 "I Am The Walrus"
08 "Octopus's Garden"
09 "Here Comes The Sun"
10 "Get Back"

Future song and whole album downloads from The Beatles catalogue are a sure bet.

So what song do you think would qualify as The Boss Level tune? "Day in the Life"? "Hard Day's Night"? "Across The Universe"?
