I am actually considering getting the three guitar stand, the keyboard stand, and the microphone stand as well, as I'll have use for all three.
This game is ridiculously expensive. I even bought a PS3 specifically for this game.

I will buy Rock Band 3, a Keyboard, a Mic and a Pro Bass/Guitar just for this. I'm dead serious.Magik said:

Anyone know if ColdPlay is GH exclusive? Would love to play Clocks on the keyboard.
Also, Keane, The Fray, and other piano heavy bands are hopefully in the DLC pipeline.

Man, has anyone else been having issues accessing rockband.com? I was gong to export my Lego songs in preparation for RB3, but lost the code in the process due to the page having loading issues.
Emailed Harmonix about it, hopefully I can get it fixed. =/

Damn, just saw the Billy Joel packs upcoming. Might just have to buy the keyboard version after all. I was on the fence about this game and the lack of Billy Joel had me quite perturbed, but now all is right (though its still DLC so it'll coast a pretty penny). I'm just hoping the more complex tracks next spring have "NY State of Mind", "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant", and "Goodnight Saigon" on it.

I think you can actually get your code again from that website. Try to put in your other code again, I'm not entirely sure, though.DarthWufei said:

You are right, they would make the website transform into a pig or something as you tried to access it.McBradders said:

Yup, has there been any video of the pro-guitar training modes yet? I thought I read earlier the game would feature instructional modes for beginners to train on the guitar with, it's been a while so I'd probably need a refresher of scales, chords and everything myself.

Too bad they don't have a full keyboard. Two octaves aren't a lot.

How does this work if you're not playing in pro mode? You're just restricted to 2 octaves anyway?

Does the UI change to a full keyboard in that case?

^yes and no, respectively, sadly.
Lone_Prodigy said:
for people that have never played piano before, it's more than enough.
also, same with Expert Pro Guitar mode, how can one reasonably expect to sight read that? protip: you're not. you practice your way up there. It's difficult for a reason, you're playing the actual guitar line. don't expect to beat it your first try, they sure as hell don't.

``Sorry kids, this is going to take some practice. It's like you're actually playing music or something.``
:lol
Not sure i`ll try this,it looks like you really need to really want to learn to play the guitar and practice a lot to be good at the game,and playing guitar for real.

Nothing like a video game to make someone try the same thing over and over 1000 times a day until you 100% it though, I'm expecting expert mode to be hard, impossible even, at first, but with a few months of game play under your belt, it should be a lot more approachable. I'm expecting if you progress up the difficulties, you'll slowly pick up the song more and more, like the easy will eliminate 3/4th the chords, normal 1/2, hard only 1/4th, and expert has every last note (or close to it). Starting any new song on expert should be suicide, but I'm hoping the game has training built in to all the pro songs like mentioned earlier.

You are missing out on the keyboard, unless you also plan on getting RB3 with the keyboard bundle. Keyboard is quite a bit of fun too.

Am I the only one who thinks the Pro-Guitar options really suck? $150 is a lot of money for a controller I can only use with one game, but as someone who can play guitar, I don't want a realtar because I cannot think of a situation in which I would actually want to play a starter Squier Strat. :\

Who paid you to grab Dr. Pavel?
Can't wait for dat lefty Squier.

I agree, but the fact that this might be the only way I can actually force myself to learn how to play guitar is worth the $150. Besides I have spent that amount of money on much less useful things.I AM JOHN! said:
This is going to be expensive. I have the full Rock Band 1 set, and the GH: World Tour set, but the Rock Band 1 drums suck, and the strum bars from the RB1 guitars are shot. The GH stuff still works but you miss out on solo keys, automatic lag calibration, and no pro-drums. Looks like I will be replacing most of it...
Rock Band 3 Game + Keyboard Bundle - $130
Rock Band 3 Drums + Cymbals Kit - $130
Rock Band 3 Wireless Guitar - $60
Midi Pro Adapter - $30 (already have a real Midi keyboard)
Bass can use a GH guitar, and I already have 2 mics.
And I may consider getting the Squier, but that is a ways off anyway.
Total: $350 ... shit

If they're doing a partnership with Fender, why not do a mid-level Strat? Speaking solely for myself here, I've been in the market for a new Strat for a while. If they put those guts into one of the full-size $500 Stratocasters and charged a premium on it, I'd jump in a heartbeat. $150+ might be out of my comfort zone for a controller, but $600 for a pretty good guitar that's there when I have when I either want to play something with that "Fender feel" or don't want to carry around my Les Paul that I can also use in my gooft video game? Hell yes!Tenks said:
Obviously I am one of those niche consumers, but if this pro instrument initiative is something they're serious about supporting, I'd like to see them go all out on it instead of playing to the extremes. And that's what they're doing - playing to the high extreme on the controller side and the low extreme on the guitar side. And I can see them losing a lot of people besides me in the process.
