  • Shane C
    Creative and inspiring, though I thought the 2nd half was much more engaging then the 1st half.
  • Luis A. Torres Salazar
    A pesar que muchas generaciones los conoces, siguen siendo unos dioses indicutibles. Video muy emotivo, dirigido a un publico adulto.
  • This is some great shit. When I grow up, this is what I wanna do!
  • Phil
    Nice piece of animation, but it's not clear what's being sold, so I can't join in the chorus of celebrating this as a good spot.
  • Fred
    I am a fan of the Beatles and of the Rock Band games and I knew right away what I was being sold. Somehow it feels true to the spirit of both the game and the band. If they're targeting an audience that is unaware of Rock Band, you're probably right.
  • Teo
    Increible!
  • This is a masterpiece of animation and great attention to detail. Hard to get the songs right, they just have too many great ones! Makes me curious enough to try out the game (heck, perhaps even buying it!)
  • Beautiful spot!! Love the animation!!!
  • henk
    Great, enjoyable !
  • blazer
    Simply amazing!
  • KirKir
    Cool Beans!! I'm not even a Beatles fan but I would totally run out and get this game. I wouldn't sleep outside in line 3 days before the release date in front of the store, but I would definitely buy it after all the crazies went home. Great job
  • malrite
    WOW!!!
  • WOW! whatever they are selling, I'm buying. It tickles the musician in me in a good way. Great concept and execution.
  • Ronald Assumpcao

    Cheers!

    Wasn't Jamie Hewlett's fair hand involved in this? I'd have done a year 'inside' to have worked on the Sgt.Pepper sequence.
  • Bob
    No, Jamie Hewlett was not involved in this.
  • Marty
    Simply unbelievable!
  • Marty
    Oddly though, the audio is on the left channel only. All the other spots this week are stereo.
  • kashan
    WOoAAAAOOOOO! a tribute to Beatles indeed!
  • Very well done. A little bit of a let down though. I should have ended on the roof with "Get Back"
  • robbbbbbb
    check out the othr footage, it ends exactly the way you want http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpBDOolcs9g
  • Fimran
    wow...i really amazed. great execution. The Beatles always be the best music sensation ever.
  • The Beatles reincarnated in a XBox game? Amazing digital work... wondering if John and George survive in the game? Imagine!
  • Tom P
    Great production values, once you get used to the Beatles as cartoon figures. The animations of "I am a Walrus" especially imaginative. Suggests a seventies answer to Fantasia. But maybe the promo tells/shows too much -- not enough tease.
  • m.
    Get used to the Beatles as cartoon figures, hello, you probably weren't born yet, The Beatles cartoons aired on ABC-TV from September 25, 1965 to April 20, 1969. This rendition is AWESOME!
