Big Time Rush kicked off their Big Time Summer Tour on July 5,
2012 where fans will get a sneak peek at the upcoming games set
to release Christmas 2012.
“These games give fans a taste of what life on the road during a
tour is all about and we’re stoked to give players the feeling
on what it’s like to join us backstage, on the bus and
performing live, making them feel like they’re a member of our
band,” said Big Time Rush.
In Big Time Rush: Dance Party (Wii) players dance and sing along
with Kendall, James, Carlos and Logan as the guys record their
album, practice choreography and start touring on the way to the
big concert. Players can unlock exclusive cut scenes for up
close and personal footage that can only be found in the game.
Big Time Rush: Backstage Pass (Nintendo DS) offers on-the-go
fun, featuring songs that include fan favorites like “Til I
Forget About You,” “Boyfriend” and “Stuck”. Players follow along
to the beat of the selected tracks, using the touch screen to
tap, hold, drag and scribble on cue to earn maximum points. Fans
can watch music-style videos to see behind-the-scenes views of
the band in action from on stage to the tour bus and more.
“Big Time Rush for Nintendo DS and Wii is a must have for the
show’s fans and new followers alike,” said Mark Meadows,

essence of the band, what happens behind the scenes and the high
energy of a dynamic live show.”
