In the article, "While My Guitar Gently Beeps," the author wrote about the Beatles and the game rock bank.
The author believes the game will put the Beatles back in the forefront of the evolution of music, but I don't agree. The Beatles were a great band, but putting them into a video game only really leads in their fans buying the game.
Children know a days, rather play games and music of now, not back them. I mean no on could ever replace the Beatles, but their music is old. I understand it was inspiring and a break through in the music industry, but now music is different. We have evolved so much from the 1960's. Music has changed so much. I mean with the launch of the Beatles games, it brought back their music, which probably was forgotten. Bringing out the game will allow people to not just purchase the game, but their Cd's, or songs on itunes. It allows a lot of other doors to be open; this means the game doesn't just make a profit, but everything else.
Yeah, the Beatles will always be popular, but not for many kids who play the game rock band. There are a lot of teens and adults who play rock band, but many others are more familiar with music today. Music is different. There are many genres. Kids prefer to play the more popular music the the oldies. People believe that bring the Beatles, would bring them back, but it is all to make money.
I really don't have a clue in what direction popular music will take. Since the music industry is always changing, music is also always changing. One minute rock can be popular, while in the next it could be pop. Children are always going to like what's "IN" style. I think the music is going to be more up beat and maybe with more meaning.
The rock band game seems to be a lot fun. My friends loving playing it; they have so much fun. I ask my friends, if they would be interested in playing the Beatles rock band? My friends answer me by saying, " We really like playing rock band, but we are really not into the Beatles." I think the game probably made a lot of money, but it is not the forefront in making the Beatles all popular again.
