Edit: it's more situated towards "pop rock" according to Wikipedia. Basically the same thing.

As much as I want the Beatles Rock Band, I'm kinda disappointed there isn't a Rock Band 3 this year.

Whos Taylor Swift?

Pop Country artist. Not a fan, but she actually plays the guitar and writes her own songs.

Post by: cool breeze on August 04, 2009, 08:58:30 PM: yeah, it's essentially Guitar Hero with a more broad list of music, which is also what Lego Rock Band is trying to be. I'd rather the track list to lego rock band be DLC.

and fuck, why is there Singstar Queen and not Queen Rock Band? Queen is way better than The Beatles.
