Fun 4 the Whole Familly January 8, 2009
My family and I are really enjoying Wii Rock Band that my daughter received for Christmas. The only thing that I would have liked better is for a wider selection of songs. Other than that, we've been having a blast. br /br /The drums are cumbersone to store away when we're not using it but the fun we've had has been worth it.
 great game, not very sturdy January 7, 2009
The game is a great game, my kids had so much fun on it the first two days and then the drum quit working. They are older so its not like they misused it.
Great Family fun January 7, 2009
This has been a lot of fun for our whole family My teenager even wants to hang out with us. My only complaint would be the writing could be a bit bigger for the lyrics.
 Lot's of Fun January 7, 2009
