    I'm basically the only person in melbourne that has RB1

    I'm importing the shit out of RB2 and it'll get here just in time for my 18th birthday party

    I predict that Journey will get incredible amounts of play

    No you're not!

    PS3 or 360?

    360 dogg

    got a US box at launch almost everything's been region-free and if it isn't it's cheaper to import anyway

    by the way if you guys don't use play-asia.com for everything import-related you're fools

    Nice work, if I'd been smart I might've done the same thing but my 360 was an impulse eBay purchase

    I'd consider getting one from the US when this one dies, but then half my games won't work

    I had to wait for the EU release of Rock Band and import from there, then import the instruments separately

    My friend has been trying to do the same thing but all the eBay sellers have jacked up the price of shipping on the drums by 150%, I guess they were starting to lose money or something

    Unless they actually bring Rock Band 2 out here

    Hahaha, what am I thinking, that will never happen

    I really want that $300 Ion kit but I'm sure the shipping would be prohibitively high

    I think I'll be getting Guitar Hero World Tour for the instruments and picking up RB1 for the songs and DLC. Then RB2 for ditto.

    Important to note:

    RB1 release date: October (probably late October)
    GHWT release date : November 13.

    Seriously, I was terribly unimpressed with World Tour.

    It's a terrible rock band song

    Why can't we have Knights of Cydonia, and Guitar Hero takes Green Grass

    I mean, it's basically all guitar- it's heavy on guitar, light on everything else

    Knights of Cydonia is at least more balanced and a better song

    I can play with either guitar, though I'm used to the X-plorer so I probably prefer that

    I really need to play some more Rock Band, I haven't played in ages and I need to try to get through expert drums

    Shit I play those on hard sometimes just because it's easier to hit all five buttons
    And sometimes I play those on medium just to feel bad-ass

    I can't use the hammer on buttons, it's too hard to get my hand down there on time
