London, September 9 (ANI): Sir Paul McCartney has confessed he is yet to try his hand at the computer game based on The Beatles.
The Fab Four’s bass player admitted the game ‘The Beatles: Rock Band’ looked like a tough challenge.
‘I haven’t tried it. When you go to a demo they play it and I go ‘God, that looks hard’,’ the Telegraph quoted him as saying in an interview with NME.
The former Beatle also said it takes time for him to adjust to new technology.
He added: ‘I think you either don’t embrace the modern day or you do embrace it. For instance, I held out on mobile phones for years. I could see everyone using them, I thought they were poncy. But then I got one and thought ‘This is good’.
‘So I’m not a dinosaur, I probably resist most trends until I think ‘I’ll have a go at this’ and the Rock Band thing is similar because I’m not a video gamer.
‘I go to people’s houses and they’re whacking away the Wiis, and I can see the fun, and I’ll have a couple of games and get beaten instantly and think ‘I don’t like those games any more’”. (ANI)
