Tapulous<\/a> has had the music rhythm game scene to itself on the iPod for a long time, but now Harmonix and EA have ported their phenomenally successful Rock Band game to Apple’s iPhone, meaning that you can embarrass yourself pretending to be a Rock star on the train now.<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

The iPhone game will feature the same 4 instruments (guitar, bass, drums, vocals) as the console version, so if you’ve got 3 friends with the game you can nerd out in the doctor’s waiting room, or on the schoolbus. Rock Band costs $9.99 in the US app store and features the following songs:<\/p>\n

Ace of Spades \u201808 \u2013 Motorhead
\nAll The Small Things – Blink-182
\nAttack-30 Seconds To Mars
\nBad Reputation – Joan Jett
\nBad to The Bone – George Thorogood & the Destroyers
\nCherub Rock – Smashing Pumpkins
\nDebaser – Pixies
\nEverlong – Foo Fighters
\nGirls Not Grey \u2013 AFI
\nGive It All – Rise Against
\nHanging on the Telephone \u2013 Blondie
\nHymn 43 – Jethro Tull
\nLadybug – Presidents of The United States of America
\nLazy Eye – Silversun Pick Ups
\nLearn To Fly – Foo Fighters
\nMove Along – All American Rejects
\nSabotage – Beastie Boys
\nSimple Man – Lynard Skynard
\nTake The Money and Run – Steve Miller Band
\nWe Got The Beat – The Go Go\u2019s<\/p>\n

If you don’t have any mates with iPhones, or your mum drives you to school, Tapulous have released the 3rd version of their Tap Tap Revenge Game, which looks equally shiny, flashy and comprehensible only to Japanese people<\/a> and those under the age of 20.\u00a0 Tapulous’ offering costs a tenth of EA’s game (99c), and has 100 free songs, as well as ‘premium<\/a>‘ tracks from bands like Blink 182, Fall Out Boy, Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, No Doubt, Tiesto, The KillersKorn, Megadeth, QOTSA, Weezer, AAR, AFI, Keith Urban, Crystal Method, and Lynyrd Skynyrd.<\/p>\n
