I don't even know anymore.
Take a popular music franchise, and combine it with a popular toy franchise to make a mega video game franchise?

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has confirmed that Lego Rock Band is in development for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii and DS.

Due for release later this year, TT Games is developing the title in partnership with Harmonix, with Warner set to act as publisher.

“Lego Rock Band combines two compelling properties and creates an experience that family members of all ages will enjoy playing together as a group,” said Tom Stone, managing director of TT Games. “Harmonix and MTV Games are the world experts in music gameplay, and we’re genuinely thrilled to bring the unique and humor-filled Lego experience to their Rock Band universe.”

Bob Picunko, senior vice president of Electronic Games for MTV Games, said: “Rock Band is a social game experience that crosses every generation and every genre of rock. Harmonix and MTV Games are big fans of the Lego game franchise and excited to work with TT Games to develop a new take on Rock Band that focuses on great music and Lego humour that’s fun for the whole family.”

"Lego Rock Band combines the multiplayer music experience of Rock Band with the fun, customization and humour of the Lego videogame franchise packed with brilliant chart-topping songs and classic favourites suitable for younger audiences, including:

Blur: "Song 2"
Carl Douglas: "Kung Fu Fighting"
Europe: "The Final Countdown"
Good Charlotte: "Boys and Girls"
Pink: "So What"

"Players will become rockers as they embark on a journey to stardom that the whole family can enjoy as they work their way through local venues, stadiums and fantasy locations on Earth and beyond, that mimic the imaginative settings that the Lego world offers. Also continuing the LEGO "build-and-play" gaming experience, players will be able to create their own Lego Rock Band style as they customize their minifigure avatars, band and entourage, including roadies, managers and crew. Lego Rock Band supports Rock Band instruments, as well as other music game controllers."

BOO!

Re: Lego Rock Band

I like that old time block 'n roll.

Re: Lego Rock Band

I love Lego and Rock Band...so the logical thing is to buy this game. I'll probably get it for Wii, 360 and PS3. That means I have to go buy some new consoles but I figure it will be worth it. Since Lego and Rock Band are my two favorite passions. Ever. When is this gen going to let up on all the innovation. It's hurting my wallet.

Re: Lego Rock Band

Oh man, I can't wait until next year when they release Pepsi Presents: Super Mario Block Band.

Re: Lego Rock Band

I really don't see the need of this...

On the other hand, the only DDR game I have is the Mario Mix. The only golf game I own is Mario Golf... etc.

Some new details on the game.
