In an interview with MassLive, Roger Daltrey, lead singer of The Who , may have let it slip that they’re working on The Who: Rock Band.
A Harmonix rep later confirmed that they’re working closely with the band but don’t have anything to officially announced. This could mean that the next band specific version after The Beatles Rock Band could be The Who: Rock Band. This seems somewhat unlikely because of how many songs by the who are already out via downloaded content and they already have fewer songs than The Beatles.
Check out the details after the jump.
Both The Beatles and The Who have huge followings and it’s obvious these would sell well, but I also think Harmonix is doing a good job at keeping the gameplay as interesting as possible. Story mode, psychedelic graphics, historically related achievements and trio harmonies made The Beatles Rock Band awesome. I’m excited to see what they would put into the next Rock Band to keep the gameplay interesting and what would they call “star power” in The Who: Rock Band? Calling it beatlemania was definitely a creative.
Q: The Beatles are the latest band to be featured in a video game, “The Beatles: Rock Band.
A: The game, yeah, yeah, they’re going to be doing a Who one next year. There is one planned. (The idea) is fabulous. Anything that gets non-musical people interested in music is wonderful. In my opinion, music is our last true great freedom. They can burn our books, they can burn our paintings, but they can’t stop us singing and making music.
We know more Rock Band is on the way but we’re just waiting to see… puts on his sunglasses Who’s next. Yeeeeeaaaaaaaah!
