The first 30 second television spot for The Beatles: Rock Band has hit the net, bringing fans of all ages together with the Fab Four (circa 1969) at the famous Abbey Road pedestrian crossing to celebrate the game’s launch.

One has to wonder what John Lennon would think of all this CG trickery were he still alive; George Harrison at least lived to see the age of digital compositing techniques come to fruition. Regardless, it’s still hard not to smile a little bit thinking of a whole new generation of fans that will be turned on to their music for the first time.

The Beatles: Rock Band hits stores on September 9th, 2009, alongside new remastered versions of their catalog of recordings.
