App Review: Christmas with Weezer

Tap Tap to Weezer Versions of Popular Christmas Songs

Weezer has come to the iPhone in time for the holidays, unfortunately it has been given the Tap Tap treatment.

Tap Tap has always fallen short when it came to transcribing notes. It lacks the refined Guitar Hero or Rock Band feel where notes actually have some semblance of rhythm.

The place where Tap Tap excels is in it’s multi-player mode and it’s ability to acquire such talent as Weezer and Nine Inch Nails.

There are six songs remixed masterfully by Weezer:

O Come All Ye Faithful
We Wish You a Merry Christmas
Silent Night
Hark the Herald Angel Sings
O Holy Nigh
The First Noel

Along with two Bonus Tracks:

Pork and Beans
The Greatest Man That Ever Lived

Conclusion:
If you simply must have a Christmas album this year and do not want to shell out the extra dough for Sufjan Stevens, then this is the album to own.

The game play, although ineffably unrefined is still enjoyable when you are waiting for food with a friend. The magic will inevitably dwindle after the holidays, as will it’s price tag.
