The 5 different styles make familiar songs entertaining!
It's so much fun that well-known songs like "Whoomp! (There it is)" and "Insane in the Brain" are played in 5 different styles (rock, hip-hop, fanfare(!), country, and Latin). The quality of the covers is usually good and always entertaining!

In Battle of the Bands, you make music by swinging the Wii Remote in the right direction at the right time, sometimes shaking or thrusting it. Besides moving/playing to the beat, you can also attack and defend (B button). (That's why the game is called Battle of the Bands!)

This is definitely a game that's fun to watch, but it didn't manage to hold my interest for very long. Making music without a GH Guitar just doesn't quite do it for me.

More fun than you'd expect
At first glance, you might think Battle of the Bands is a weak imitation of music games like Guitar Hero 3 and Rock Band. Fortunately, this is not the case: instead, you initiate a war between different bands, each with their own weapons, music styles, and instruments.

The result is a colorful battle between punks, rockers, hip-hoppers, and many more artists. A small downside is that this game can become repetitive after a while, but especially considering the current price, that shouldn't be a problem.
