Yeah... after watching that Pro-G video on a relatively easy song, I'm going to keep playing drums.

Chicago killed my leg.

And saving myself cash at the same time

I just pretend that's what's really happening. I actually started cracking up the first time that happened - almost uncontrollably. Then felt a little bad for OC, then realized how funny it really is. Then I daydream about the guy in the audience going onto a internet board and talking about how awesome and refreshing it was.

I want to recruit up to three of you for a quick run at 1,000,000 and 60s overdrive.

Sign up and claim your roles. Open to suggestions on a time.

Interesting, this is the first time I've checked out the Pro notation for guitar.

I'm down with the chord symbols like Em and Am/G but how are people supposed to know which fingering/voicing to use? I sort of expected it to be like tablature flying towards you, with fret numbers indicated for each string. Oh wait I see that does happen for single note runs.

I'd be up for vocals at anytime.

Isn't that what the little mountain silhouette looking thingies are? Tells you what to do?

I'd imagine this dude went through at least the basics of the training section first of all.

I'd be down with it - schedule is sketchy though...

I know this is going to sound really fucking crazy, but I actually called Best Buy to see if they had it in stock. And guess what, the second one I called had it and I went and picked it up.

Telephones, people! I always always prefer to get my shit done in person or on the phone because they can't put you off if you're in their face, and therefore shit gets done.

Yeah the problem with calling Best Buy is that you are at least as likely to get incorrect information and end up wasting your time, as you are to get accurate info. Especially with something like this where there are so many different guitar peripherals/variations. Though I'm glad to hear it worked out for you!

You're goddamn HARDCORE son!

And you're up to 8th place!!

Telephones? What kind of asshole uses a telephone?

I thought those were just telling you which strings to strum but yeah of course I have not gone through the training section.

(Me, not theek)

Interestingly, looking through the song list online at RB.com, Any Way You Want It still shows up, but Rock and Roll Star is gone completely.

I just gave them the SKU. There's no room for interpretation there.

I'd be down with drums any time. Just send me an invite if you see me online.

Good point!

EDIT: too bad they don't answer the phone.

Didn't see this mentioned earlier, but it looks like the PS3 Export page is now live on rockband.com, instead of just being a redirect back to the main page.

Website also shows that one battle is now live. A bass battle for PS3.

And everyone that tried to enter the Lego code they got last night has been sent replacements. Yay! Just got mine.

This actually reminds me of how lame some of the stuff is like that. It's ok the first time, but then it's the same thing after every road challenge ends. And the cutscenes of them leaving the club are always the same. They couldn't add a little more variety?

So far this game is really seeming like a mixed bag to me. I like some of the new challenges but over all it feels less polished than 2, which doesn't make sense to me considering they only had a year to put out 2 after 1, yet they had two years for this.

But then again, if the website availability at launch is any indicator of Harmonix' level of preparation...

Something tells me that had to get a game out by the end of October.
