Harmonix's Rock Band Discussion

Re: Harmonix's Next Game Revealed...Rock Band

Sounds fun, but I don't know 3 other friends that would really be intersted in this.

Plus I got bored with Guitar Hero 2 or 3 (whichever was the last one that came out on the 360) pretty quick.


oh and then there is the price too...

What about 3 other people from OS.

It would be 2 other's from OS

Singing isn't going to be online. No idea why.

I'll be a guitarist for anybody and everybody that needs one. I'm only getting the game, no big bundle for me.

Because its embarassing.

Kidding, it probably has something to do with people using the headsets to talk on Live, and that interferring with the mic. Just an idea.

In addition to sharing our impressions of Rock Band, we are proud to announce a brand new feature in Rock Band that will involve playing the entire setlist from start to end without having the chance to back out. We are not allowed to mention how many songs are in the game, or what you will get for completing the grueling task. But you'd better be prepared to spend nearly an entire working-day rocking out non-stop to get this notch under your belt!

That is good.....I still need to pre-pay for this thing.

My local Gamestop cut off pre-orders a week or 2 ago, not that means anything, they are morons there. They also cut off preorders for the helmet version of Halo 3, and they still to this day have about 10-15 copies of it sitting around their store.

Better be something sweet, because that has got to be grueling to do.

I will try it though.

Re: Harmonix's Next Game Revealed...Rock Band

I am so up in the air on this one. It sounds fun, but part of me knows in a month or two I'd mostly be done with it...is it worth it for 170 or whatever it costs? I'd want the drums, not much of a point to get it without those.
