Video: Rock Band on iPhone
Touch Arcade has been jamming out to Rock Band on iPhone and it has the finger-tapping video to prove it. Revealed yesterday, Rock Band for iPhone takes the rhythm series and converts each instrument -- including vocals -- into a tapping title, asking players to hit the notes at the proper time. The game features a quick play mode, but players can take their bands to glory in the tour mode. It also includes online and local bluetooth multiplayer. There is no announced price for the full game, which comes with 20 tracks and could release as early as next week. Touch Arcade notes there was a Smashing Pumpkins pack of two songs for $1. We've contacted Harmonix for more pricing details and will update if we receive them. Check out the video after the break to see how you'll tap, tap, tap along to the music. Update: Check out the full track list in the iPhone Rock Band fact sheet "thingy." Yes, that's what it's called. %Gallery-75139%
IGN: 'Rock Band is coming to the iPhone'
While @EAmobile is twittering that "some big news from the EA Mobile camp being announced tomorrow morning" – leaving us in a would-be lurch for the next twelve hours or so – the insiders at IGN have spoiled the surprise. "Rock Band is coming to the iPhone," IGN Wireless declares. No equivocation there! Their promise to share "details, screens, gameplay impressions and more" tomorrow morning leads us to believe that they've already seen the game; unfortunately, they "can't say too much beyond the conformation [sic] of the game." No date, no price, no screens, nuthin'. But: Rock Band is coming to the iPhone. For everything else, you'll have to wait until tomorrow morning.
