Green Day‘s new entry into the Rock Band series was given a first review by Joystiq. Along with some mixed opinions about the band itself, the review talks about the mechanics and other details:
It’s not like I have a problem with them, they’re a pretty good band. But they’re following the freaking Beatles. Not only do those guys have a ton of amazing, really different songs, pretty much everybody loves them. When I told people I was going to an all-Beatles Concertition, everybody wanted in, even my mother-in-law. Who wants to listen to six hours of Green Day?
They’ve got pretty much every Green Day song mainstream fans would ever wanna hear. […] They’ve got like … three different venues. Everybody who does well gets a bunch of pictures and stuff, and if you can do good for a few songs in a row you can get some performance videos and interviews. It’s awesome fan service.
Check out the review here. The game is due out today, June 8, 2010. As we noted earlier, the game includes music from the band’s major label records: Dookie, Insomniac, Nimrod, Warning, American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown. The band was not able to produce the digital masters needs for their earlier, independent albums: 1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hour and Kerplunk!, neither record contributes anything to the game. .
