What’s with releasing DLC a week after the game is released as well? I’m guessing that the albums that they are releasing would have been available to the programmers before release, yet they haven’t been included in the full release of the game. Smells like another rip off to me.

What I got out of this:
Activision is probably overcharging for every single version of Guitar Hero 3, because they have to price the 360 version higher, and figured people are too dumb to figure it out.

Anyways, quite frankly, I have low hopes for Guitar Hero 3. I don’t trust Neversoft, and the current song selection sounds really poor, for the most part.
Rock Band’s, so far, isn’t exactly stellar, but it sure as hell seems a lot better than GH3’s.

Too bad. But it doesnt really matter to me since I have to wait for it to be released in Europe. Ill just wait till I can buy drums, guitar, microphone seperatly.

“I don’t know if I can say we’re cheaper or more expensive but remember, where as in other games they adjust the tracks for one or two guitars, in Rock Band it’s vocals, drums, guitar and bass on multiple difficulties.”

Translation: it’s more expensive.

83 pounds that translates to. Bargain. However, knowing the UK it’ll be more.

Me and two others are splitting money for this game, so its a bargain to us even if its 150 pounds.

I wanted the bundle with the drums only. I’m getting Guitar Hero 3. .and since I already have a guitar with Guitar Hero 2 - there is no need for another guitar (especially if wired)!! Rock Band is playing the we want $ game. They just won’t get any of mine until the peripherals come out separately. Sigh

I think they are shooting themselves in the foot here. I was thinking about giving this a shot, but not anymore. I will stick with GH3!!

I can’t afford it. I already bought GHII and I guess I’ll try out GHIII and Rock Band with my old GHII guitar.

Err.. I thought we could get just one at a time, if not, forget it, I will be buying GHIII and I was just going to use my Guitar from that for Rock Band.

I think there making a bad move here, I won’t be buying it until the peripherals are stand alone.
