As if a pretend four-piece band wasn"t complicated (and ridiculous) enough to set up in a living room as it is, a new rumor says that the upcoming The Beatles Rock Band may expand the experience even more. According to the rumor section in the latest issue of Game Informer (via Destructoid), The Beatles Rock Band may be adding the option to use more than one microphone, so other players can harmonize with the lead singer.
Considering this is coming from the magazine"s rumor section, it"s obviously unconfirmed, but it would make a certain amount of sense. For starters, The Beatle"s discography does naturally lend itself to the inclusion of backup harmony singers. But also consider, as Destructoid notes, that the $250 limited edition bundle of the game will come with a mic stand -- which would surely come in handy for any backup singers who might also be playing another instrument, wouldn"t it?
But again, this is still just a rumor for now. Keep those fingers crossed, wannabe vocal harmonizers.
