Presentation
This definitely looks like a Rock Band game thanks to a familiar interface. Lack of avatar creation is disappointing.

Graphics
Clean if not a touch dry. The interface looks right, but the canned band animations are boring.
8
Sound
Good song selection -- 20 tracks come with the download. The music store offers more. Track quality is decent.

Gameplay
Guituar and bass are fun. The drum fills are sad exclusion. Vocals are just boring. Multiplayer, when it works, is fun.

Lasting Appeal
Rock Band is expensive. You get a lot of songs, though, and the DLC is priced well. The uneven instruments and iffy multiplayer connectivity hurts, though.
