As a complete historical experience The Beatles: Rock Band hits every nail on the head. Fans and appreciators alike will swoon all over again, while newcomers to the music will gain some appreciation for the mark they left on modern music. The campaign, structured as a historical memoir, does a great job of injecting story in to a traditionally hollow genre and a the ease of use features make this the first music game almost anyone can enjoy.
It's a big disappointment the songs aren't exportable to Rock Band 2 and it's a shame there are a few pinnacle tracks missing but a minor allowance is given to Harmonix simply for bringing the impossible-to-license music to the video game crowd.

VGW's Brian Shea: "The notion of downloadable content is commonplace in today’s landscape of launch-day DLC and season passes, but prior to 2007, to have a legitimate, laid-out plan to support a console game post-launch was not a common occurrence.

We all do it – well those of us of legal drinking age; invite some friends around, have a few drinks and then break out the console to get our video game on. According to Craig Bryan; here is a list of the perfect alcoholic accompaniments for a night of fun and frolics.
Journey kinda makes you wanna smoke, methinks. Well, for those open-minded individuals who don't just condemn the act, like myself, I can see Journey turning a person's view introspective, and a certain drug allowing for some rather insightful revelations.
(For the record, I've smoked three cigarettes- I was drunk- and one cigar in all my life.)
playing games drunk is the worst thing ever, reactions are to slow and falling asleep and leaving your console on all night! wake up with 5000 messages, take away food all around you and feeling like poop looking at your online stats wondering how bad you played :( bad times
I'd mostly only bother with music and sports games , the rest not at all , besides indeed buzz
