OT - Beatles - Rock Band

Does anyone else think this will flop?

http://www.thebeatlesrockband.com/

Nothing against the Beatles, but I have a feeling the 'rock band' / 'guitar hero' is a little played out...Viacom is apparently hoping to sell 10 million when it goes on sale this week. I have a hard time seeing the video game buying public pouring their dollars into this edition.

The older "gaming" crowd will buy it, I suspect.
(I kind of want it...lol... If I had a video game system, I might have bought it.)

But I agree, the whole rock band / guitar hero thing is kind of tired.
Unless they're coming out with Rock Band: The Who at some point, I'm not even interested. :lol:

It'll do extremely well. Built in fan base from the 60s, 70s, 80s. This band had the midas touch.

...and do you get bonus points for destroying the drum kit? That would be integral!

If a Beatles topic doesn't bring Brywool out, I don't know what will. What happened to Brywool?
