Traveler's Tales signature LEGO humor is definitely here, so the cut-scenes for the big challenge events are entertaining. The interface and graphics all got a LEGO-themed overhaul, and some of the new images will make you smile with nostalgia. And the Rock Den is a nice addition: its a customizable home-base for your band, which functions as the hub for the various modes and as a place to fill with unlocked items. The game has about 45 songs, and while the setlist may not be for everyone, I found it very satisfying. I very rarely found a song I didn't like - I'd say 1/2 the songs were ones I knew and loved, the other 1/2 were pleasant to play but forgettable. So even if you're just using this as a cheap 45 additional songs, you'll get your moneys worth. The game does have some drawbacks, mainly its smaller setlist and its more-confusing progression. The first few hours I spent in it were a blast, but after that songs started to repeat more than I'd like, which got a bit dull. And for a kid's game, its not as clear about what to do to progress, I was stuck for a few hours in some spots trying to figure out what gig I needed to do to progress. These 2 nitpicks both bring the score down a bit, but in the end, Harmonix has made another great music game, and TT has made another entertaining LEGO game.… Expand

    I am a hardcore gamer (playing everything from Shin Megami Tensei to Half-Life), and I've loved the Rock Band series. This entry is solid as usual. There's a sense of humor here that's irresistible, and the song list, while seeming hit-or-miss at first glance, provides enough to keep you satisfied.

    I picked up both LRB and Band Hero and expected two very fun games. Band Hero surprisingly surpassed my expectations... whereas Lego Rock Band was seriously lacking. I liked the lego presentation, but the setlist is by far the most boring in ANY GAME TO DATE.

    Skinned differently and repackaged with new songs....it feels like hardly any effort was put into it. Normally I would have given this a 3...maybe 4, but I'm making up for fanboy scores.

    I love this game. I am a big fan of Harmonix and their Rock Band series and if you have good sense of taste in music along with a comedic appreciation for it, this is a worth while set list. I got so pumped the second I heard the lyric 'Shot through the heart you're too blame' at the start of "You give love a bad name" by Bon Jovi. After that, its really just all rise!

    It could use some better songs, but for a Lego game it is pretty good. This game is really cheap and is a must have. I only have the Drum Set and Mic though. :( Oh well. I will get both guitars sometime.

    Игра хороша, хоть и не без недостатков. Сперва хочу сказать, что это моя первая игра из серии Rock Band, до этого доводилось играть только в Guitar Hero.
    Итак, первый и самый большой косяк - это графика. А конкретней, бэк анимации просто ужасны, не знаю как там на других платформах, но на Xbox 360 всё очень плохо. Благо катсцены не лагают, но об этом чуть позже.

    Итак, первый и самый большой косяк - это графика. А конкретней, бэк анимации просто ужасны, не знаю как там на других платформах, но на Xbox 360 всё очень плохо. Благо катсцены не лагают, но об этом чуть позже.
    Второй и финальный недочёт - это песни. И дело даже не в самих песнях (чего стоит только Queen), а в их количестве. Ну их прям мизерное количество.
    Теперь о плюсах:
    1)Возможно никто не ожидал, но сюжет восхитителен, пусть и до простоты детский.
    2)Анимации. Как я уже писал, никогда не играл в RB, но если такие красивые анимации присутствуют и в других частях этой франшизы, то я с гордостью снимаю свою шляпу перед Harmonix. Во время игры я просто получаю эстетическое удовольствие смотря на тачборд.
    3)Story mod. Чуть выше было написано пару слов о сюжете, но этот пункт я бы хотел написать отдельно. В сюжетном режиме кроме того, что есть классный сюжет, так есть и создание своего персонажа, с которым можно отправится в тур, есть классная костомизация (не только персонажа,но и своего минивэна), можно получить своего собственного менеджера, и только первые полтора часа геймплея. Вообщем, чтобы получить максимальное удовольствие от прохождения, зовите друзей!
    Как итог, мы получили отличную игру, с техническими проблемами, но которые затмевает отличная история. Одна из лучших лего игр!

    It’s easy to be skeptical of LEGO Rock Band as a quick cash grab, but Traveller’s Tales’ trademark LEGO silliness blended with a few interesting new mechanics from Harmonix elevates the game to a level fans of both series shouldn’t brush off.

    It's a kind of pricey track pack of a bizarre setlist for a really fun rhythm game.

    I'm left wondering who Lego Rock Band is really for. It seems to be trying to cater to everyone, but it ends up simply unfocused, and occasionally outright sloppy. It doesn't actively offend, but it's nowhere near a must-have, even for serious music-game fans.
