Imagine looking at screenshots of Rock Star

We
do love music games here at DS Fanboy -- we happily tested a
Hannah Montana game because of the promise of a multiple-instrument rhythm game (a premise, at the very least, on which it delivered). So there's a small, but embarrassing, undercurrent of
actual curiosity underneath our open contempt for
Imagine: Rock Star. There is, after all, the very slight possibility that Ubisoft has happened upon some enjoyable gameplay mechanics for their instrument simulation.
Luckily for us, that is
not what appears to have happened. Bass is just a matter of touching the right icon at the right time, from four static icons. It's pretty much bog-standard. And that means we
won't be compelled to put up with the dress-up bits and the inane music.

Well, isn't that basically the same gameplay mechanic as Elite Beat Agents, one of the best games on the DS?

Pretty much - although you can guarantee this won't be anywhere near as good as EBA.
Elite Beat Agents are go!!
