E3 2009: Preview – LEGO Rock Band

That's me! :D

My experience with LEGO Rock Band is one I’ve covered at an earlier point during my E3 tour. Therefore, I’m going to save you the time of reading yet another explanation of how Rock Band = Rock Band, link you to my The Beatles Rock Band preview, and simply list the things about LEGO Rock Band that make it so gosh darn special.

Here, here!

  • It’s Rock Band… with LEGOs.
  • Acts more as a stepping stone for people who want to get into Rock Band, but lack the talent required to play a fake instrument.
  • Blur’s “Song 2″ and Europe’s “The Final Countdown”? Yes, please!
  • Also offers tracks such as “Kung Fu Fighting” and stuff by artists such as Pink, Good Charlotte, and the Jackson 5. Er—neat!
  • You know those color-coded tabs that show you which buttons to hold? Those are LEGOs that explode when you actually hit your notes.
  • Despite having absolutely no reason to exist, LEGO Rock Band is actually quite fun.
  • It’s Rock Band… with LEGOs.
  • And as you’ve probably already guessed, it’s multiplatform. Wii, 360, PS3, etc.? Harmonix makes sure anyone who needs his LEGO fix can get it.

And even though I know you don’t need them, how about some screen shots (mostly of my LEGO Rock Band band, “teh Bricklayerz”*) and a video showcasing the gameplay?

Huzzah! Happy days are here again.

Also, note how serious I look playing LEGO Rock Band. Heed my warning when I tell you I don’t screw around when it comes to LEGO products—unless I get bored and tired and start getting into it just so I can maintain an interest. Woot!

*Har, har! I’m so very witty.
