BTW, I played Monkey Wrench and Little Sister last night in Tour mode. I haven't played either in ages, but one of them netted me a whopping 4 stars and a single Spade (on hard!). The other wasn't much better. Fuck Dave Grohl.

;)

Late to the party, but I am very glad they got the MSRP on the Strat to be under $300. I'll be picking mine up on release day.

I'm catching up to you.

That's Raptr.com. It won't retro-act, though.

Yeah.. That's why my RB2 is only 516 hours. I only started my account in October of last year. 1000+ hours is probably not a stretch in two years.

Is that like The Live Eye?

I wonder how much Dance Central has to do with the launch problems with RB3 such as the linking still not working?

Link Watch: Day 10

It's getting dark in here.

I'm actually okay with not getting those 6 GS points yet, since the 4 combined with an earlier 6 from DJ Hero has me back at 5's and 0's again.

I wish some game (and I really wish it had been RB3) had the balls to do 1000 1-point achievements.

I admit I do want the 6g to round out my score, but I'm far more interested in the functionality.

Well yeah, I was just trying to stay positive. I'm angry about the feature not working... GRAHAHHAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Has Pinata's Friday morning already been ruined, or are we still waiting? Bon Jovi and John Lennon are still the most likely candidates, right?

I want to punch you in the face so hard right now.

I find it amusing that people care what digit their gamerscore ends in. I would never have even thought of that idea...mine has been all kinds of odd numbers and it never bothered me in the least. I'm very interested in the linking functionality though.

Got my Mustang about an hour ago! This thing really is pretty awesome! So far I have played the first four easiest songs on Expert Pro and gotten 3-4 stars on them. It's going to take a while to get used to the feel. Also ended up having to recalibrate after a couple songs of missing things, weird because I thought I was doing OK before on drums and toy guitar.

Here's a great article on the Mustang from a Musician's perspective, with lots of good MIDI info

He also has good articles on RB3 in general, and the keyboard:

I thought Bon Jovi was a done deal.

Oh come on, as much as we play Rock Band? We'd get most of them. 1 point for each of those goals instead of just unlocking silly T-shirts. That would be fun! C'mon!

I'd be down with that. Wonder if MS would allow it. Microcheivments.

For some reason I thought they were limited to 99 or 100 achievements. I seem to remember that Orange Box had the max number of achievements spread among all the games.

Oh right, I forgot. You hate me, and I'm an asshole. Sorry, woke up on the right side of bed this morning. No worries, ship's course has been corrected.
