    If the controls had been tested and refined more, Battle Of The Bands could easily have hopped up a couple of points. The concept of genre-mixing is an exciting one that leads to great moments, but getting through the game wholly satisfied can be arduous due to the forceful nature in which you must use the Wii remote. It’s definitely not on the level of the ‘big boys’ of music games, but with a better budget, more time and more effort, there’s something lurking under ... Read more

    Battle of the Bands is a one-hit Wii wonder because is cleverly takes 30 well-known songs and remixes them in five different styles and does little else. As interesting as it is to see the music evolve when switching between bands, the gameplay doesn’t evolve after you play the first song. Making matters worse, as soon as you and a friend cramp up from battling it out in versus mode, you’ll want to break up both of your bands and never have a reunion tour with this su... Read more

    All told, Battle of the Bands is a near complete failure. If it weren’t for the ability to listen to the songs in the game’s media player right from the outset (which believe me, are hilarious) this game would be a total waste. That feature alone, however, does not qualify this game as a purchase or really as a rental, because the rest of the game is that damn bad. Read more

    As a new music rhythm game, Battle of the Bands does a pretty good job of being something that would appeal to the casual market. It doesn't hold the same amount of complexity and difficulty needed to keep up with the current big titles, but definitely provides the younger crowd with a title they could keep up with, and obviously it should appeal to those that aren't willing to plop down $80 + for a game like Guitar Hero. Give it a rental if you're thinking about pick... Read more

    I always had the idea that on every development team, someone thought, "I really just want to make the most innovative, creative, interesting, fun, and intuitive video game I possibly can. If for nothing else, to not shame my family name." The people at Planet Moon Studios made some of those games over the last decade: Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Armed and Dangerous, and Infected were all met with positivity, particularly Giants. Their latest creation, Battle of the Bands... Read more
