First it was Lego Iggy Pop. Then Lego David Bowie. Then Lego Freddie Mercury. And I knew that I had to buy the game, no matter what the financial burden. But now... now Lego Rock Band is just just heaping on the awesomeness, because Ray Parker Jr.'s "Ghostbusters" theme is playable.
Holy Skywalk. It's absurd how awesome this game is. I can't even decide what's better about the level -- the supernaturally floating Lego bricks or the fact that you can destroy Lego ghosts with the power of your rock. I don't know. It's all so awesome that I think I need to lie down for a while.

That's pretty skywalking awesome. I may use that fact that I have 2 kids as an excuse to finally purchase a game with a plastic guitar.

Man the player sucks! Although it may be my experience talking. It's still pretty cool, but I'm not getting it. RB2 is more than enough rock to satisfy me.

This gets me excited.
I am not ashamed at all.
I will own this game.

The only way this game could be more awesome is if it gave out blowjobs on demand!

all part of Legos plan to get people to buy the game have it include people like queen and David Bowie and now given the buzz over ghost busters returning throw in ray park. and those who are hesitat to get the game wind up having to have it. proving with rock star Lego is an evil genius of marketing.

The people behind this game are fucking geniuses. I don't have the money to buy this but I am going to get it sometime this year. How can you not like this game when you can play the Ghostbusters theme?

Geez, I know Rock Band's always been easier than GH, and I can barely play Hard anyway... but they're really toning this down if that's an indication of a song being played on Medium.
The girlfriend like Band Hero's tracklist a lot more, so I think we'll be getting that over this.

Holy Crapsticks. It's killing me that I'm not going to be able to play this till Christmas Day.

That was so great. Lego makes me so happy. It's the only one of my favourite franchises (well, I guess it's more of a company) that hasn't had one of it's characters raped in an FFF.

Wow, that's a major departure from the regular Rock Band style of just watching the band play. Kinda like a blend between that and Beatles Rock Band's dreamscape sequences, with "achievements" thrown into the mix. Interesting.
And very cool.

A reference to an oral sex joke (from the movie) in a Legos game? Day one purchase!

Wow. That guy kinda sucks at the game.
Also, Kudos for the "Admirable Display of Bravery" message.

The problem with getting this- is I would be focusing more on watching the animations than playing the game..

Judging by the difficulty level in the clip, that wont pose any problems.

If you excuse me, I need to decide which organs will be sacrificed towards the purchase of this game.

So you think LEGO fucking Rock Band is awesome, but Tekken sucks? I will continue to read your webpage sir, albeit with the reservation that your taste in videogames is decidedly suspect (Shitty)!
