The band U2 is interested in their own Rock Band treatment, according to a report on USA Today. The bassist Adam Clayton commented on the band’s past with music games and how that perception was changed with The Beatles Rock Band. “We definitely would like to be in there, but we felt some compromises weren’t what we wanted,” he said. “That could change. I love the idea that that’s where people are getting music, and we’d love to be in that world. We’ll figure something out. What The Beatles have done, where the animation is much more representative of them, is what we’re interested in, rather than the one-size-fits-all animation. We didn’t want to be caricatured.”
After Rock Band managed to snag the holy grail of music licenses with The Beatles, many have wondered what other bands could handle an entire game based on their careers. Led Zeppelin and U2 often enter those discussions, and it’s good to know at least one of them is interested in it. [1up]
