Customer Reviews

moll's rock band
I bought this game as a gift to my daughter. She loves it! The price was quite reasonable.

Thanks to Game Designer & Sony
So there are slight differences in the PS3 version! Sony continues to support their loyal customers with good older platform PS2 games like Rock Band. Thanks.

This game allows kids to cooperate and learn the 'oldie' tunes at the same time !! My son and daughter, who are several years apart and do not usually play the same genra of games, now love to play this one together. I'm even tempted to join in if I wasn't too busy shooting monsters ;-]

Why buy in-store when Amazon has it over 30% cheaper and free shipping?

Playstation 2 CD Compatibility
Rock Band Special Edition contains a 2 sided CD. My Playstation 2 was one of the early versions and it would not play two sided CDs. In order to play Rock Band, I had to purchase the latest Playstation 2. You need to make sure your Playstation will accomodate 2 sided CDs before you buy Rock Band.

Now that we have the latest Playstation we are enjoying Rock Band Special Edition.
