All kids love video games and here you will find which five musical games are the most popular on the market today.

At number one we have “Rock Band” by Harmonix. This game will allow your children to pick an instrument and rock out with friends and other family members.

There are three versions of this fun game; the original game, Rock Band 2 and The Beatles version. The instrument controllers are compatible with all three games so there is no need to get new controllers when you get the new games. This game isn’t all about the stage performances. It also has features like a studio where you can record albums and go on world tours. This game can also teach you how to play the guitar and drums.

At number two is “Guitar Hero”. This video game started the musical instrument craze that is sweeping the world at the moment. There are so many versions of this game including the band versions for Aerosmith, Metallica and Van Halen. Unlike the Rock games new instruments are needed to play the different games. You can buy track packs to add songs to the music lists. If you are adding to your child’s “Guitar Hero” collection make a note of which one your child has.

At number three we have “DJ Hero”. This game is more for the Hip-Hop crowd and was the most recent edition to the hero gaming world until “Band Hero”. There are two versions of this game. “DJ Hero” comes with the game software and the turntable controller whereas “DJ Hero: Renegade” come with both software and turntable but it also comes with a controller stand and even has Jay-z and Eminem CD’s. “DJ Hero” will most likely have to place on a table to play but because of the stand with “DJ Hero: Renegade” this problem is solved.

At number four is “Band Hero” This game is brought to you by the makers of “Guitar Hero” and the instrument controllers for “Guitar Hero” will work with this game. This game includes music from Taylor Swift which makes it appeal to the young girls in the world. You can buy the software only or a bundle where you get the software and the instruments. The track list is perfect for all teenage girls out there.

At number five we have the Lego Band game. This game would be great fun for all the family and is a family friendly version of “Rock Band” The controllers used to play “Rock Band” will work with this game. If you have an older child with this game and a younger child wanting to play “Lego Rock Band” is perfect. Your child can create a Lego Den to relax and perform in which will be fun for your little one
