I saw the 360 version at the HMV in chinook on the weekend. I would phone first to make sure they still have them.

For the solo's (and big rock endings) you dont need to strum if you use the small neck buttons. You just need to tap the correct fret button as the note passes on the correct timing. It works similar to the hammer on sections, but you dont need to hit any previous notes for it to work.

BTW... I freaking hate this weeks DLC. I was really hoping for better cause Im hosting a big ol' rock band party this weekend. Ugh.

[Flaming Choy]

ok, tried the solo buttons for those 2 songs, still freaking impossible. I give up on expert, no way that's humanly possible. Time to work on drums i guess.

I bought mine from Superstore for $199 as well, the logic being may as well pay $30 extra now instead of waiting 2 or 3 more months.

Last time I was at Blockbuster they had a bunch too, check them and Rogers.

[FlamesKickAss]

got the last one at shawnessy walmart!!!!! 169.83!!!!

I just bought mine on ToysRUs.ca for $169.99 with $7.99 shipping. Looks like they're still in stock for the 360 and PS3 too.

They had about 3 360 copies and 8 PS3 copies as of 4:30 last night at the Deerfoot Meadows Walmart.

It's definitely a step up on GH3. The notes are placed better and it's a lot more like playing the song on guitar.

Having the crowd sing along in 5.1 surround is awesome.

I saw a stack of them at London Drugs last weekend. I think it was the 130th Ave location.

So when the Wii version of Rock Band comes out will there still be downloadable songs? or should one invest in another platform if they like the downloadable content.

I can't imagine why not, however it is possible they will not offer it I suppose.

I bought Guitar Hero 3 yesterday and after getting home and trying it out, I gotta say, Rock Band is infinitely better. I feel ripped off.

I'd be surprised if they didn't.

Apparently Guitar Hero 3 should start seeing DLC soon on Wii so I'd imagine that the Rock Band guys porting it would be focusing on that.

I love Weezer, but I don't think El Schorcho is the best choice for a rock band song.


Garbage- dont care for it.

The STP track is ok. I might pick that one up.
