We get the inside story on Harmonix Music Systems, the company who brought us the legendary party games Guitar Hero and Rock Band. How the company founders remortgaged their houses to make it happen, how they did an industry first and made a game featuring the Beatles music, and how their two leading games eventually became rivals!
