After rock band 1,2,3, this is a fun variation that works with all of our rock band instruments.

Mainly got this game for the added DLC for Guitar Hero. It was in the clearance bin for less than a dollar. So for that price, yes it was worth it. I definitely wouldn't pay a lot of money for the game though.

Popular songs, great for parties

I like this game for the variety of pop songs it has. I think it is a little bit more challenging at first because these pop songs are a little more complicated than some rock songs from Guitar Hero and such. And the special challenges require you to have multi-players to play the other instruments in order to get the required points to meet the goals. It's a nice change from the Rock Band and Guitar Hero music. I hope they make another Band Hero with other pop songs.

Follow-up Review (Full Review on PS3 Bundle)

This is a follow-up review. Please see the review on the Band Hero PlayStation 3 bundle.
***Apparently, there is only significant audio lag depending on what type of TV you are using. Playing on a Sony Bravia XBR HDTV, the audio lag is there, which is what I said in the review on the bundle.
For example, when I was playing the game on a Sony 1080p TV, my audio lag was set at 165. However, on a Panasonic 1080i TV, my audio lag was set at 35. So, it's NOT the game itself that may cause lag. It may simply just be the type of TV you are playing on.***
I just wanted to clear that up.
