Reviews (Metacritic: 92/100 - 9 reviews) (http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/rockband?q=rock%20band)
100 - Games Radar
The experience is well worth its $170 asking price (for a guitar/drum/mic/game bundle, which is the only way you’ll be able to buy Rock Band for months anyway) and makes for one of the most rewarding co-op events you could ask for. This is the perfectly polished, logical extension of what Guitar Hero started and where the music genre needed to go. It just rocks. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://www.gamesradar.com/us/ps3/game/reviews/article.jsp?articleId=2007111610440114367676§ionId=1000)

Rock Band is a great game. The presentation elements are top-notch and take music games to a new level; consider the bar raised. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://ps3.ign.com/articles/836/836144p1.html)
93 - Game Informer
Rock Band is the best music game ever made... It’s immensely fun and consistently rewarding. Nearly endless replay is bolstered by the promise of a musical catalogue that will have already dramatically expanded by the time you read this. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://gameinformer.com/NR/exeres/7D01B46F-1723-49E7-982C-D1E1357CF9BA.htm)
93 - GameTrailers
It’s a tool set that will be revitalized every time a new song pack is released, and with all the improvements over the Guitar Hero formula, one that will eventually become the de facto standard in music and rhythm games. For those who can foot the bill, Rock Band delivers a gaming experience that’s simply like no other. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://www.gametrailers.com/gamereview.php?id=4634)
91 - Gaming Age
For the bundle price of 170 dollars you do get plenty of bang for your buck and I can't give Harmonix credit enough for doing what was once only hopeful dream. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://www.gaming-age.com/cgi-bin/reviews/review.pl?sys=xbox360&game=rockband)
90 - GameDaily
The online mode could use some work, and we wish the controllers were wireless, but even that new tangle of wires in our living room can't keep us from living this virtual rock 'n' roll fantasy. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://www.gamedaily.com/games/rock-band/playstation-3/game-reviews/review/5955/1886/)
90 - Cheat Code Central
Rock Band has one thing going for it: the necessity to having friends to play and the willingness to work together. It may not be enough for everyone to drop 170 bucks on the game and equipment, but I can say if you even remotely have thought about this game, it is worth it. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://cheatcc.com/ps3/rev/rockbandreview.html)
90 - Yahoo! Games
It's light years past any other music game, yet is accessible enough to make anyone feel like a living room superstar. KISS was dead wrong: God didn't give rock 'n' roll to you. Harmonix did. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://videogames.yahoo.com/ps3/rock-band/review-1171301)
90 - GameSpot
Rock Band does a superb job of bringing out the wannabe rock star in all of us, and creates one of the best party-game experiences of all time. http://www.metacritic.com/_images/readreview.gif (http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/puzzle/rockband/review.html?sid=6183204)
