I saw this on Xbox Live, what are your thoughts on this game, myself it justseems like a cash-in on thetwo popluar series that'll have little to no real work done on it, i really don't think i'll be getting this cash-in unless the game has an outstanding track list.

I don't understand this game at all. What does Lego have to do with Rock Band?! It's an utterly pointless concept imo.

Yeah i felt that two, it's just a pointless cash-in that will need a great track list to be worth even looking at.

Probably the most idiotic concept I've ever seen for a game. It's pretty obvious someone is running out of ideas.

The LEGO name would imply that they are going to direct this towards children and families and the few song titles released only further confirms this. I don't get what the big deal is really, if the game isn't for you then don't buy it. No one has a gun to your head.

the kids I know that like lego anything are just not old enough to play rock band, the game is too hard for them, hands and arms are too small to play well. they are gonna sell the game to unexpecting parents whos kids wont really be able to play the game. is the game gonna be filled with nickelodeon and hannah montana bands? I just dont get it.

That's what I was thinking. Kids cant play Rock Band so its a bit of a paradox really.

Kids CAN play if they put the no fail in this game aswel.

Harmonix are jus milking it for all its worth then some.

I hope this is NOT the next lego game as the others are fun they should of done a Harry Potter or another film.

well to be honest im not at all bothered about lego being the character models. i bet they will be funny to watch, but really does anyone even take notice of the band graphics when their playing the game. if you look at the band you miss your notes. even when i watch a friend play the notes just draw you in. so being a lego style game may sound daft to me but if the songs are sweet and theres 80-100 of them i could well be interested. after all its the tracks and how they play thats the main part of the game what makes it the game it is. lego guys instead of carton charaters makes little difference to me when i think about it if its the same game accross the board

It's like Guitar Hero. A game that the sheeps of gaming will undoubtedly buy, no matter how ridiculous it gets.

No link between the Lego and Rock Band franchises, so this is just joining the names to cash in. As for changing the characters in the background to lego characters - does anyone even look at the characters while playing? I know I'm too busy focusing on the stream of notes scrolling down the screen. The only time I have time to look at other stuff is on long held notes on Easy.

I understand what everyone is saying but it's also pretty obvious that this is being marketed towards kids. With that in mind, I'm sure the difficulty for all modes will be toned down with the exception of Expert (only possibly though). Since it's geared towards kids, why should any of you care? If it sucks, oh well. If it doesn't, then for those of you who have kids then you'll have something to buy them.

yeah lego rock band makes no sense but i guess lego star wars and lego indiana jones and all of legos other cross overs do. Lego just makes a lego verison of what ever is popular. I dont no why everone is making it out to be such a horrible idea. My only problem with it is all the songs are probably going to be real easy. It might be fun at a used price to pick up to play rock band songs i already have
