This game is so fun and entertaining for my family and friends, but I hate that the songs that we all love and want to play are the ones that I have to individually purchase. I've already spent over $50+ on additional content, which I feel is ridiculous considering one has already paid $250 for the actual game. Overall, very fun, but definitely very costly.

My brothers and I got Rock Band for Christmas back in 2008. So for Christmas this year I picked up the latest and greatest and Got the band back together! Fun game for christmas party. Enjoyed the new songs and was able to re-download old songs that we purchased for the first one 8 years ago! Drums seem to not always read the hits.

This bundle was purchased, not for the game, but for the drum set. The guitar bundle was purchased at release time when the band bundle was sold out. I was hoping that the drum set would be sold separately soon but that's not the case. Now i'm stuck with a second game, and a microphone I have no intentions on using.

I used to have the rhythm games for the old platforms and really missed playing them! This one is good, but I don't know a lot of the songs. That's okay, except for the person left with the microphone. Buying the songs I like kind of stinks, but I still really like this game as a group activity. Lots of fun.

Game is a blast, bought the set for friends and family party nights. We had a blast getting our groups rocking out. Drums and guitar are built solid, microphone looks like the wire could be a issue in the future with a wired usb that has to be plugged in at all times. All in all great game and great instruments.....

The new equipment feels sturdier than the prior generations. It's a great party game to have around. I took a star away because not all the songs have ported from the past games. They also did not reimburse us or provide a credit for songs they have discontinued. Otherwise, good game.

Was debating between the new guitar hero and this decided to go with rock band since the new guitar hero changed the buttons. I definitely do no regret this decision. It's nice to re live the classic rock band. So fun to get everyone together to play. Also the updates drums are a lot better.

Really brought back old memories of drunken times with me and Bros. Not only did it bring back the band back together but it also gave me arthritis. Highly recommended. Especially since they have journey.

We were so excited when this came out because we now own the X-Box One system and couldn't play Rock Band anymore because it wouldn't work with our new system! Its great fun for the entire family and we've already spent hours rocking out with our grown children and their friends!!!!!!

I used to love Rockband on my Xbox 360. I was very happy to hear it was coming back out on the Xbox One. I purchased the full kit and the drums and guitar are a little nicer that the original set, but if you still have working drums I don't know if the differences are worth the cost.

Rock Band 4 is a great addition to the franchise. With Harmonix working to add past games as exports (provided you had already exported them when available) the track list is only getting bigger.
While Rock Band 4 leaves out some multiplayer options and other play modes, it includes the core mechanics vital to the franchise. Additionally, it seems that the developers are working to bring these missing features in future updates.
The Hardware included in the Band-In-a-Box is solid. As far as I can tell it is at least as good as the controllers from rock band 2/3. The kick pedal is still a problem and is better off replaced with a solid metal option, though I understand why this was not included. The only issue I have had is that occasionally the guitar controller will disconnect during play, but it is only occasional. I am hopeful that a firmware update will resolve this problem soon.
All in all, if you liked Rock Band in the past you'll like Rock Band 4

If you like this sort of game then there is nothing to fret about with this purchase. It is like other Rock Band games that were made previously. Some new features, but nothing that jumped out right away. Fun party game and it is good for a good time.

The gameplay is smooth, very clean. Great for group experiences. The only setback is what could've been a better setlist but that's solved with DLC. 5 stars overall for me.

The game is a great addition to the franchise and it is great to see it come to the next gen family of consoles. Songs porting over from old games is a great feature. Not sure about the new freestyle solo mechanics but will get used to it.

Great party game. song selection is lacking from the main disk, however if you played previous rock band games and have downloaded songs they can be played on this one. the game lacks any online mode but will be added later.

This has become the go to form of entertainment in our home. It is awesome. Real family fun. It is not quite the same feel as the older versions of the game but it is still great entertainment for all. It nice to get away from shooting games.

Get your friends together had have a blast. This game is great and the controller responses are better than ever. I have had little to no issue with lag like in the past renditions. Great game and the career mode is a lot of fun.
