So… Is there anyone out there who doesn't know someone who wants either the Beatles version of Rock Band or the Beatles remastered box set for Christmas this year? I know I've got my eye (and ear) on the stereo box set (if there are any still to be had) and if I had a PS3 or XBox360, I would definitely want the game as well. Alas, I have but a modest PS2, so no Beatles Rock Band for me.
But that's okay, because I don't play video games that much anyway.

It would have been even cooler if the actual time of the release had been 09:09:09 on that date as well, but given that the world has at least twenty-four time zones (some sources claim as many as thirty-one), trying to release a game and a set of CDs at a specific time would have been problematic at best.
