Product Description
LEGO Rock Band DS

Amazon.com Product Description

LEGO Rock Band merges two of the most popular video game franchises to deliver a unique family-friendly music experience that will take tweens, teens, families and gamers of all ages on a wild journey to rock stardom in order to "Build a Band and Rock the Universe." Combining authentic rhythm/music gaming experience of Rock Band with the accessibility, customization and humor of LEGO games, LEGO Rock Band allows players to create their own unique rock star style and customize their own avatars, band members, roadies, and managers.

Gameplay
Action in LEGO Rock Band for DS is true to the Rock Band standard of play found in other releases in the franchise, only with a LEGO twist. Your goal is to run through a succession of rock tinged, family friendly song tracks with your band. Bandmates are indicated by four separate avatars representing your guitar player, bass guitarist, drummer and vocalist. The game doesn't need a peripheral like other music games on the DS, instead the player indicates the appropriate rhythm for each bandmate in turn through a combination of the DS' D-Pad, face buttons, mic and eventually its stylus. Players switch between parts using the shoulder buttons. The game also supports 2-4 person multiplayer over a DS multi-card Wi-Fi connection. One of the fun LEGO influences is in the tablature flowing across the screen that directs your play. This is in the form of LEGO blocks color coded for each controller. As with all Rock Band games, consistency gains the player multipliers which earns them more points. As players successfully complete songs and rock challenges, they can collect LEGO 'studs,' with which they can customize their avatar and other in-game goodies in true LEGO Snap-On fashion. In addition, players can unlock additional content and collect amazing vehicles, which can be used to transport their band from local gigs at rock clubs to epic stadium shows and even fantasy settings on Earth and beyond. The game contains a variety of play modes including Quickplay and Challenge, which guarantees varied gameplay.

The Song List
LEGO Rock Band for DS/BSI allows players to rock along to both current hits and classic favorites that the whole family will enjoy. These include:

All American Rejects - "Swing, Swing"
The Automatic - "Monster"
Blur - "Song 2"
Carl Douglas - "Kung Fu Fighting"
Counting Crows - "Accidentally in Love"
David Bowie - "Let's Dance"
Europe - "The Final Countdown"

Really fun game May 22, 2010

I bought this game for my pre-teen niece, who tells me that she loves playing it, it's really fun, and that I'm "the best aunt ever".
I was surprised to see so many folks purchasing this for younger kids... probably because of the Lego theme. I was pleased that even a 12 year old didn't find this "too babyish". I was looking for something wholesome, yet entertaining, and I think I really hit the mark with this one. Her mother assures me that the value for the game is tremendous, considering how many hours my niece has spent playing it.

Personally, I thought the game screen looks a little cluttered, with lego singers, scrolling lyrics at the top of the screen, video frets, some kind of progress bar across the top, a score tally, and many other flashing winking things besides. I couldn't tell where to look first. No matter! My niece seemed to grasp this just fine, quickly becoming really good at it.

If you already own a Nintendo DS system, do yourself a favor and pick up this affordably priced, entertaining game.

My 5 year old son got this same for Christmas and he loves it. I like that the music is appropriate and songs we all know and that it is a nice break from the shoot 'em up games that most boys want.

If there was ever a format a first time rock band player the DS is it. I played this game for hours on end playing "We Will Rock You" and "So What" And doing quite well(It should be noted I played the super easy setting to get my feet wet). The game's simple face button interface is great and the songs are the actual songs(Pink's "So What" Is censored and some songs are shortened to hold the young'uns attention span) A rarity for a DS game. All in all for those of us who don't want to shell out the cash for a Rock Band set can get this and have a blast. ROCK ON!!!!

My 2 boys love this game. It is a little complicated but after some practice they seem to do better than Mom and Dad. :)
