I'm there with ya. I like the setlist more than RB2, but without any buzz, I'm kinda 'meh about it. However, I can't wait to get my mitts on the new guitar. I ordered mine from YF360G over the weekend, so I'll probably get it a week late, but with no hype it doesn't seem like I'll be missing anything. :lol:

To be fair, it probably doesn't help GH that I spent 6 hours straight playing RB2 on Saturday and I'm sort of note-chartted-out :lol:
Thinking of hitting TRU at lunch and seeing if I get some stuff squared away for an exchange for this on 10/26. Problem is I can't think of a free game I want to keep. Thinking Tales of Vesperia, but eventually that'll be $15 clearance at Target because it's an awesome JRPG ;) /off topic |
You can't get RB2 and take it back to where you bought it the first time? Didn't save your receipt?
|
I have the receipt, but I don't think I want to go through the hassle. IIRC:
$60 RB2 $40 DQ4 -$10 off $75 -$5 RZ cert ---- $85 So I'd only get a slightly better deal on RB2 alone and I'd have to deal with the RZ cert being partially refunded back to my account or something. Yeah, here's the net from my RZ account: 37.77 NDS-DRAGON QUEST IV: CHAPTERS 47.21 X360-ROCK BAND 2 |

I couldn't get the links to the images to post correctly, so you have to scroll to the 12:17 post to see the pics. Definitely looks better than the pin connectors of the LP. |

Feeding the beast - 5G - Upload a song to GHTunes
Ugh... that's just going to lead to a ton of shit up just so people can get that 5 pts. *edit -Thanks FatTony. Definitely looks improved, but still begs the question, why? |

So, a person just keeps buying songs until it unlocks? lol |
Anyone know if this is going to have PS3 trophies as well?

Which makes me ask will GHTunes be the same across all platforms or will there be one for each console Wii, 360 and PS3? Why detach the neck? Makes for easier storage or to take on the go. |
These are going to suck.

They should stack now, thanks to GH:A doing the same.
By the way, there's a kid that's putting guitar note charts up at youtube: http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=pdtecrj Excitement gauge holding steady at "Meh..." The audio is clearly not direct-feed, so I'm trying to take it with a grain of salt as how the songs actually sound. Check out the Santeria one for sustained hammer-ons and 4-note chords: |
Looks kind of strange... noticed another thing out of the Rock Band page... you can still get star power phrases when you have star power activated.

Soooo....what are the parts where the purple line connects all the notes? That makes no sense to me.
Also - I like the chords that can be piled onto one another. Looks pretty cool in the schizm video that dude has. Also, I dig the Tool venue. |
I think those purple-line sections are when you can use the slider section of the new guitar.

Fuck me in the goat ass!

Great, vids are popping up. Now where are the vids showing how the drums work in RB?

That's roughly half the 1000 points and doesn't look bad at all. |
Hmmm... I wonder if that would be:
Stix - 5G - Perform as a Drummer (band or solo) to fit in with the guitarist and vocalist ones. |

When I first started playing Rock Band, it was weird playing the rectangular notes. Now, seeing the round notes is strange.
I'm glad they toned down the fretboard graphics. |
