Rock Band is extremely cool. Yes, it's basically just a compilation of the Guitar Hero, Karaoke and a drum game.. but when put together, it's more then just the sum of it's parts. The solo careers are pretty much run of the mill; much like the previous games already listed. However, when you play in a group, it's so much fun it's insane. We played for several hours over at my parent's house on Thanksgiving, and man was it fun. Of course my parents and grandparents didn't care for a lot of the music included, but even they were singing along with some of the songs, like Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead or Alive.
The new drum set (the one real new addition to the game over previous Harmonix games) are both extremely cool, and quite hard. My niece was actually the most talented out of the box. She was wailing on stuff on Medium with barely any practice at all.
Not having played the karaoke games, this is the first experience I've had with the singing. While everyone seems embarrassed to try it in front of a group, it is a lot of fun to do in the privacy of your own home without anyone around to hear. :)
Anyway, to refer back to the title. The BOC classic is included. Even better, there are periods in songs where the vocalist can hit the mic in time with some marks on the screen as a tambourine. However, in this track, you actually are doing the cowbell... I started laughing so hard when that first happened. Here's a little taste to show you (yes, it's crappy quality.. I just pulled out my little cam to snag this real quick):
