MTV and Harmonix have gave the world its first public viewing event of the Beatles Rock Band which had both Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney attend along with Yoko Ono and George Harrison's widow, Olivia.
The console game marks the first time any Beatles music has been licensed to a third party.
"The game is good, the graphics are very good, and we were great," said Ringo.
The game, which is released on 9 September, will feature 45 songs, along with a bonus track - All You Need is Love - which can be bought online via Xbox Live.
Microsoft states all proceeds from the sale of the bonus song will go to Doctors Without Borders, the US branch of the charity Medecins San Frontieres (MSF).
Paul McCartney was enthusiastic. "We love the game, it's fantastic," he said.
