Foster: There's been no announcements about that, but the game is about the Beatles; it goes from '62 to '69; it covers that iconic music. [The solo projects are] definitely not the focus of the game.
Crispy Gamer: The new Guitar Hero game allows for any combination of drums, guitars, anything ... are there any plans to replicate that in Rock Band?
Foster: We haven't really ... I don't know. It's an interesting development. It sort of makes it more of a party. Personally, it's interesting, because it's one of these things that makes it fun more as a game, but less of a band, so I don't know how that would fit in.
Crispy Gamer: Where do you go from here? Once you have the Beatles...
Foster: I'm probably going to take a nap.
[Laughs] I'm probably going to take a vacation. We just had a kid who's about seven and a half months old. I've seen him enough, because Harmonix is actually a really good place as far as quality of life and working...
But after this, I feel like, gameplay-wise, there's a lot of room for expression and creativity in music games that we haven't cracked into yet. The design challenges are very real, but in terms of doing something this big that's going to get this much attention that's going to make this many people happy, yeah ... I don't know where you go from here.
