Omi Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Anyone getting this when it's released? - As a mildly musical chap who loved the Guitar Hero series on the PS2 I was all geared up to get GH3 on the 360, but I've decided to get Rock Band instead. - You get a drum kit FFS! 4 player simultaneous play, much better playlist (for my taste, anyway), and the promise of regularly released tracks and albums won me over.

Dave Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Not my cup of tea really, nothing to do with the fact that I have the musical ability of a salmon and that I am practically tone deaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorburn Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Eagerly awaiting the release of this too, latest I heard was March 08 360 version is regionally locked as looked into getting a copy of that, but the PS3 version seems not to be.

Dave Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 We bought boogie for the wii, which comes with a microphone. My girls love it, but i am so bad it's laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizze Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Definitely getting it, out on Friday in the States at $169 for the bundle, and shipping will be about $80 for express 3 day. Will be worth every penny!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] How can you get hold of the PS3 version from elsewhere? Most of my usual foreign sources of games (for instance Play Asia) wont sell PS2/PS3 (and Nintendo stuff) to Europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorburn Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Plenty on eBay that'll ship from the US, there are a few UK sellers but prices are high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Mick Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Might be tempted with Rock Band But what's the chances of the UK being ripped off price wise when it's eventually released Still struggling with Guitar Hero III My god is that hard on expert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorburn Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Just got forced to play bass for Knight of Cydonia co-op on medium, dear god that song gives you a killer cramp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to miss one note through the entire section, my best effort yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullett Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Its quite tricky, I failed the first song on my first attempt tonight on easy... The worst thing is I've been playing Bass for 18years played some big gigs and recording sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanG Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 It really helps if you know the song, then you can get the rhythm and hit the notes correctly. I say that as some of the songs are a bit before my time and i struggle to know whats coming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfella Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 oh but what a collection of song there is. bring it on i say!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akira Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 SO has anyone actually got a copy of rock band? Be nice to play with some uk players in the right time zone? BTW the setlist for this game is massive, on Medium there's 75 songs and that isn't counting downloadable ones. Finally unlocked the South Park "Timmy" song last night...absolute classic!
