(Especially since the expected iTunes/Beatles announcement didn’t happen yesterday….)

Ive played the Guitar Hero and other variants over the last few years, and had fun, but the Beatles version had more draw for me – I knew I would know almost all the songs.

Straight to the point – it rocks. Not only do you get the amazing sounds of loads of the Beatles songs that you know, but the interface and – the best bit IMO – the graphics are stunning.

They really have done a great job of visualising the Beatles with stylised animation and illustration.

I especially loved the way that the graphics evolved with the music right through the 60′s and the various styles the Beatles had.

Even the hardware was pretty good, with styled, well-built guitars and drums that matched the 60′s equipment the band used.

Of course, the set we had really did it justice. Having a 50 inch wall mounted HDTV, with XBox360, PS3, WiI, SKYHD and a BluRay player, generally means that your gonna have a good experience.

We did upset the neighbors too, so I’m guessing that’s a good sign .

Ok back to work for me… go play it for yourself – if your a Beatles fan, you’ll love it.

The game is on Amazon for about £40, but the pack we used last night was the Premium Bundle at £179.
