Most of abbey road is pretty boring on guitar.  Her Majesty is probably the most entertaining song not already in the game.

I sing and play guitar at the same time, so I don't find anything very boring.

Hey, I do that too. It's how I picked up most of my RB1 "Big in _______" Achievements.

I should post a pic to the POST YER PIC thread of my totally ghetto microphone rig. I look like I should be busking. In a really poor town. Which only has toy instruments. :-[

If anyone isn't planning on getting the full Abbey Road pack but still wants Maxwell's Silver Hammer, I got a free code for it from Gamestop.  PM or something if you want it.

Most of abbey road is pretty boring on guitar.  Her Majesty is probably the most entertaining song not already in the game.

I sing and play guitar at the same time, so I don't find anything very boring.

I do that whenever I can, so, when someone else is around to hear me.

All of the DLC that is played in Abbey Road studios should have custom dreamscapes.  Anything that was played while The Beatles were touring will be in that respective venue.

Hm, good question.  Maybe if you just buy all the songs on the B side?  I don't know, I bought the whole thing.

It was like 1350 ms points, I think, or something near that.  Kind of an inconvenient price considering I had to buy 20 bucks worth of points for it.

Speaking of which, is there a way to just buy add-ons for their exact dollar value instead of the points?  I hate that.

yeah, the medley is awesome, but for some reason Her Majesty took me by surprise.  After The End I was like "man, that was aweso...FUCK OH SHIT" and it didn't help that Her Majesty is the craziest song to play in that entire set.

I don't know if you can buy RB add-ons through the Amazon XBL store, but it might be worth a shot.

Does anybody know if I can use RB instruments from the 360 version on my PS3? I saw a deal to get RB 1&2 plus instruments for I think a good price and was interested in getting it for the 360 as I have RB 1&2&Beatles for PS3 and would like to get the instruments and software also for the 360, but would be nice to be able to use them with my PS3.

I'm passing on the full album.  Two of the three free songs I got with the game were Day in the Life and Mr Kite, so I'm set.

I still have a code for Maxwell's Silver Hammer if anyone wants it

Re: Beatles: Rock Band :hyper

I managed to get two free song DLC codes, so I've got the following songs still coming:

Fixing a Hole, She's Leaving Home, Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!, Day in the Life, and When I'm Sixty Four.

Oh, I've got a Maxwell's Silver Hammer PS3 code if anyone wants it.

Yeah, the dreamscapes in Abbey Road fail to even live up to the baselines set in the main game. I wasn't expecting additional flying gazebos and yellow submarines, but something other than tacky video effects and blitted text items would be nice. Plus, hey, how hard is it to render a silver hammer in that engine?

Beatles RB has so many more tracks than most Japanese karaoke places carry, OK?

This weekend I nearly gold-starred the solo vocals for Taxman, but didn't quite get there. It's the last song I need for that 4-song-set on the Achievements, and I want to use George Harrison's unlockable gamertag picture. I can sing most of that song in one octave, but the high pitched "Ha-ha, Mister Wilson/Heath" stuff I can only get if I drop an octave. Limitations of my crappy voice: So. Annoying.

I'm not sure if I'll ever clear the Paul McCartney set of gold-star for 4 songs. I'm close to getting Get Back, but since I don't play other guitar, bass, or drums on Expert, I am not sanguine about ever nabbing that prize. Singing Back in the USSR at nearly 100% until the last three sections, but Helter Skelter kicks my ass start to finish; on Expert I'm lucky if I don't fail out.

You said it, bruddah. I just came off of finally gold-starring Back in the USSR and Get Back, but still can't get Taxman or Helter Skelter. Practice, practice, practice, and more beer is needed.
