RockBand for Wii

Ok, this game looks so freakin' awesome! At first, I thought that Guitar Hero was awesome, but instead, I want RockBand now! The official release date is June 22. (Only in the US) Plus, the Wii version offers 5 extra songs that aren't on the PS2, PS3, or Xbox 360 versions. The Wii version of the game was officially announced on January 31, 2008 by Electronic Arts CEO John Riccitiello. What really sucks though, is that it costs $170.00! I can see why, beacuse it comes with, the guitar, the drum set, and the microphone. But still, that alot! I only have $20.00 at the moment, so I have to save $150.00 in less than a month!



Each instrument is represented by a different interface: bass guitar (left), drums (middle), lead guitar (right), vocals (top). The Band Meter (green meter on left) measures the performance of each band member, while the Energy Meter (gold meter beneath each interface) tracks each player's Overdrive.

I have it for the PS2, but the entire set for the PS2 was $180. And the PS2 is getting an expansion, while the 360 & PS3 can both download new songs.

and the game is fun, but the set only comes with one guitar, when there is also a BASS part in the game, si, you end up having to buy another guitar.

I bought everything seperatly. I use a GH3 Guitar, the Rock Band Drumset, and a Logitech Mic. , they all work fine, but I'm planing on getting the expansion, when it comes out, and the actual Fender StratoCaster Guitar controller later.

NOTE ~ GH3 Guitar Controllers work for Rock Band, but Rock Band's Guitar Controller DOES NOT work on GH3

Rock band is probably the best so far that harmonix has made..... at least until guitar hero 4 comes out.

I think GH4 will do horrible, cause the series is just running dry, and keeps having the same stuff. And by adding Drums and Mic. , it's no longer a GUITAR hero, is it?

someone know when its coming out in Canada?
