I've played it. ;)

It's pretty awesome, but I think it's kind of an odd choice for Arjen's first Rock Band song.

I would have gone with Into the Black Hole, with Bruce Dickinson on vox :thumbsup:

I'm sure you guys already coveted this, but is there some problem with the code to link RB3 to your account? I get an invalid code notification.

Anyone know if a RB3 bundle is coming to the PS3? Amazon seems to only have them for Wii and 360. My local Wal-Mart only has the disc and they keytar.

Not happening on the PS3.

Thanks, I'd seen that story, but I was actually wondering about a bundle like RB2 had with the drums, guitar, and mic.

There is no full band bundle, for any system. The Keyboard bundle was the only thing we got for RB3.

The new DLC is pretty good. A Whiter Shade of Pale has either had one amazing remastering done to it, or it's a different recording. That song has always sounded like AM radio, but now it's crystal clear.

Well, speculation is that Apple will announce The Beatles coming to iTunes. Harmonix may have made that happen...

What did Harmonix have to do with it?

Then why did you say Amazon only has them for the 360 and the Wii? The only RB3 bundles they have for those systems are game & keyboard bundles.

Maybe The Beatles Rock Band caused Yoko and the boys to be less squeamish over digital music?

No way. As I've been told many, many times in these threads, those people are not hurting for money and don't need <s>the music on iTunes</s> The Beatles: Rock Band to export to RB3 for another $10.

Antiquated term, unfortunately. It's Yoko, Olivia and the boys now.

I need this to happen soon. Otherwise, I'm out $10. :(

October NPDs are out. Rock Band 3 came in 15th place, which doesn't seem that bad to me considering it came out on the 26th of the month, but of course everyone is spinning it as the demise of the genre.

It was also up against Fable 3, TFU2, and Smackdown vs Raw 2011 (at least at my midnight launch).

Yeah.. Fable 3 was also released on the 26th and got up to 4th(?).

"NPD analyst Anita Frazier did make a special note in the report, assuring us that 'this game has the potential to perform well over the holidays.'"

Yep. TFU2 was 5th and Smackdown was 10th. I wonder how much money they think we're supposed to have.

I would've had plenty of money to buy all those games if I didn't get:

$160 - RB3 keyboard bundle (2 weeks early)
$150 - RB3 Mustang Pro guitar
$30 - Keyboard stand
$40 - RB3 Cymbal pack

I don't think the genre is going to die, but just go back into the niche it probably should of stayed in. Hopefully that is enough to keep it going though.
