Meer informatie LEGO RockBand!

Billund (Denemarken) -  Er waren geruchten, die ontkend werden door de makers, maar nu is het toch bekend gemaakt: naast het te verschijnen LEGO Indiana Jones 2 én LEGO Harry Potter wordt er gewerkt aan een nieuwe LEGO game, LEGO Rock Band. LEGO Rock Band is gepland voor deze winter, voor de PlayStation 3, Wii, DS en XBox 360. Het spel, momenteel ontwikkeld door Harmonix en TT Games, zal gebruik maken van de bestaande Rock Band/Guitar Hero controllers (de plastieken gitaren en instrumenten waarmee het spel gespeeld wordt). LEGO Rock Band is meer voor de familie en kinderen, een versie waarin je de minifiguur personages volledig naar eigen wensen zult kunnen aanpassen samen met de managers en andere personen die staan rond de band.

De complete songlijst is nog niet helemaal bekend, de volgende liedjes staan er zeker op:
- Blur: Song 2
- Carl Douglas: Kung Fu Fighting
- Europe: The Final Countdown
- Good Charlotte: Boys and Girls
- Pink: So What

We hebben op internet de pagina gevonden met het persbericht dat Warner Bros deed uitgaan om het verschijnen van de nieuwe LEGO RockBand game wereldkundig te maken!
