Rock Band definitely has some good rock songs and it's very fun. I found myself in the top 10 for a couple songs and stayed there for the span of a couple weeks. :p

It's a great game, but it's overpriced and doing faster stuff on drums, guitar, and bass can be tough because the game doesn't always pick up what you're pressing. Otherwise, it's pretty fun to play.
