Title: Rock Band prices
Post by: UnagiPower on July 28, 2007, 05:01:54 AM
According to prices listed by Amazon and Gamestop for pre-orders and what not the price for all the instruments and game is $200. Although it isn't official it's kinda likely.


"The standalone game disc is listed for both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 as $59.99. The drums are going for $80 and the microphone for $30. Strangely, the 360 version of the wireless guitar is listed as $80, while the PS3 guitar is $60."

I'm just getting the game, drums, and maybe the guitar if the guitar hero 3 one isn't cheaper.

$80 for drums? That's outrageous.

I'm not going to bother buying the guitars, since I plan to just use Guitar Hero 2 and 3's guitars.

That's ridiculous. Just buy an older console instead.

Mario DDR is way too easy.

Go Mod your PS2 to play Japanese games and then import a Japanese copy of DDR Extreme or Supernova.
