You are shitting me!!!!!

Rock Band was only released over here on the PS3 last week!!!!!!

Although I see they've finally come to an agreement, and the Guitar Hero & Rock Band PS3 instruments will be interchangable.................about bloody time too

I wonder when there will be more people that can play "smoke on the water" in a computer game than on guitar.

Probably already.

For the record: On Sunday, it's an XBox 360 exclusive release. PS3 will come later, for sure, but Xboxers will have the exclusive first look at it for purchase.

Good move by Microsoft, IMO.

I got Rockband 2 earlier this week. It went on sale at GameStop for $99 for the whole kit (drums, guitar, mic).

I am not getting much sleep these past few nights.

Which system and what instrument are you playing?

I just got Rock Band: Beatles over the weekend. Ringo Star was pretty talented.

I got it for the PS3. And I've mainly been playing the drums. I love it, it is very addictive. I will probably get the Beatles disc somewhere down the line.

I played drums a bunch last weekend and started getting somewhat decent. I finally figured out I needed to play the kick drum differently, and I instantly went from medium to the easier side of hard.

How do you play it "differently". I've been playing some of the easier "Hard" songs, but Everlong still kicks my ass on hard.

I am planning on getting these for my drums, they should help me do much better when missing beats in songs like "Come out and Play" and horrible Cranberries songs:

You need to practice your 8th and 16th note kicks on those. "Give it Away" can give you some good practice.

Modern Warfare 2 comes out tomorrow. If you ladies want to play a real mans game.

I was stupidly keeping my heel planted. Killed my shins and ankle. When I switched to just keeping the ball of my foot on the pedal and my heel up, it made a massive difference. Something I should have done from the beginning but I always played bass in our "band". Until our "drummer" hurt his shoulder, that is.
