Beatles become alive again in new video game...

SURVIVING members of The Beatles announced today that their songs will take on new lives in a videogame that lets people pretend to be the world-changing 1960s British rockers. 

MTV Games is having the game developed by US studio Harmonix, the maker of the hot-selling Rock Band videogame in which players using mock instruments as controllers win by keeping in tune with music and on-screen note cues. 

MTV Games didn't reveal details of the yet-to-be-completed Beatles game but says it will be "an unprecedented, experiential progression through" the band's music.

"The project is a fun idea which broadens the appeal of The Beatles and their music," Sir Paul McCartney said. "I like people having the opportunity to get to know the music from the inside out." 

The game will mark the first time the iconic band's music is featured in a videogame. More...
