For those of you that don’t realize, The Beatles: Rock Band is a huge deal. Never mind the fact that it’s a Rock Band game starring the most influential pop group in the history of music – the creators of this game have had to overcome hurdles, hurdles that have prevented the Fab Four’s music from being used in other media and even being sold on iTunes, to get this game out to you. Along the way, Harmonix and publisher MTV Games have picked up Giles Martin and Dhani Harrison to help ensure that this once in a lifetime video game arrives with the polish, perfection, and utmost respect for what the Beatles accomplished to do.

In a recent podcast, Dhani Harrison, son of the “silent Beatle,” George Harrison, commented that, ”The Beatles: Rock Band is going to blow people’s minds. It’s going to set a new standard for video games. I absolutely love it and can’t wait for music fans and gamers to get their hands on it… I became friends with the guys at Harmonix, especially [Harmonix CEO] Alex Rigopulos. When the idea [for the game] came up between us just in jest, we didn’t think it would happen. But it was such a good idea.”

Harrison also promises a huge demo at E3 next week in Los Angeles, so be sure to check back here for more!
