Rock Band Brings the Noise

Plenty of searchers went musical this Christmas. Instead of caroling, gamers broke out the guitars and little drummer toys and played Rock Band. Searches on the must-have game jumped 75% on the holiday after aspiring rockers unwrapped the enormous box of rawk.
After searching on the game, wannabe stars turned their attention to breakin' the law. Searches on "rock band cheats" jumped 268% and "rock band cheat codes" and "rock band codes" also shimmied up the charts.
Rockers were curious what tunes they'd encounter on the way to stardom. Queries on "rock band song list," "rock band songs," and "rock band downloadable songs" hammered the Buzz.
Frustrated gamers also strummed the Search box with vigor. We saw lookups on "rock band guitar problems," "rock band microphone not working," and "rock band troubleshooting." If you had initial trouble rockin' out, we hope you're now shreddin' through expert level. Rock on!
