The Beatles: Rock Band Bundle [GO]
April 14th, 2009 by Dan

The Beatles: Rock Band was announced not long ago, but with a hefty $250 price tag that had many wondering just what was going to be in the box to make it worth that much.

According to Kotaku, the game will be shipping with lots of nice, band-relevant instruments. The bundle includes:

The Beatles: Rock Band game
Höfner Bass controller
Ludwig Rock Band drums with classic pearl finish, metal kick petal, and replica drumheads
Microphone with a stand
and apparently “additional special content”

I’m holding out to find out what this additional content is supposed to be, cause $250 is a LOT of money for what is otherwise just the same instruments I’ve already got with Beatles branding on them. I don’t even know what I’d want it to be though. Remastered Beatles CDs? Naw…

I would like the ability to transfer my songs into Rock Band 2 though. That would be pretty sweet.

They need a ska bundle.

They’ve got one Mighty Mighty Bosstones song in there, but they do need more ska stuff, I agree.

Well, they only had one pop single, right?

But they could use some Save Ferris, Streetlight Manifesto, and definitely some Five Iron Frenzy.

They didn’t pick the one pop single that you think, it’s not the one everyone knows, it’s “Where Did You Go.” There’s a lot of choice that they could add in and since they’re adding in Country music of late, it’s entirely possible they’ll get to ska eventually.

1up was saying just buy the game w/o the instruments – it doesn’t even come with a regular guitar.
