    No it is the $300 kit.

    maaaaan... dude I rent from, he just bought a ps3 and rockband. Like, last month. this is probably going to piss him off.

    for the record, he only bought the ps3 to round out the selection of systems hooked up to his huge tv (including my 360), and to be able to play blue ray movies, but still. the rock band thing is likely to upset him.

    I'd like to get this, but being on the Wii would mean having no one to play with I think.

    Bummer.

    They say the Wii version will be fully functional, which hopefully means like online play and stuff.

    Yes, but I'd only be able to play with other Wii-using folks with online play I think, and most people are going to have the 360 version.

    Also, how about a sig, Anjin? I just drew this avatar.

    god that thing was scary and great

    just all runnin' up and huggin

    They've said they're going to try to give the Wii a complete experience - but have yet to say just how they're going to pull it off in any way. Plus it comes out like middle November so they've still got some time to figure it out I guess.

    Man Keep em Separated by the Offspring.

    I don't know that I've ever hated a song as much as I hated that one.

    I'm going to beat it in the career mode and ban it's play forever in my house.

    The ION kit is sold separately and comes with two cymbals which you can assign to either yellow, blue, or green. For an extra 50 bucks you can get a third cymbal.

    The actual Rock Band 2 kit comes with no cymbals, but you can purchase a 30 dollar kit to get three cymbals for yellow, green, and blue.

    Oh fuck that then
    I'll just get the thirty buck one

    first of all, everlong looks a fuck of a lot more fun than i expected. that is gonna get a lot of multiplayer facetime i think

    second of all, that effect is pretty sweet and hopefully they have more stuff like that (not the same thing, but a variety of weird shit)

    I really hope they don't pull the stand-alone disc thing with this AC/DC deal.

    Also considering that leaked shot of "Shoot to Thrill" from Live at Donnington being in Rock Band 2, I'm hoping it's just a DLC pack.

    Even if it's on a disc, I would hope they'd have the forethought to allow you to rip it to the disc like the Rock Band 1 stuff, without having to relicense

    That was something I didn't like about RB, was there was no bass career
    Bass is the only thing I can play with any real skill on hard

    Rock Band 2 shots are up - I sincerely apologize for the lack of quality...a combination of things always moving in RB2 and my being pretty eff'ed up as the night progressed amounted to some pretty horrible looking pics, but I'll try again tonite with my Rebel XTi and see if that helps the quality at all.

    Oh, I can't reach the PA SE++ board at work anymore, but if someone wants to copy this over to their RB2 thread, feel free.

    Entire album:

    We unlocked a ton of songs last night and we've only just gotten the tour bus - haven't even seen what cities are available overseas yet, and without spoiling too much, the following is 100% factual and accurate:

    Metallica - Battery...is fucking impossible.

    Much deeper character customization, but still very similar to RB1:

    I am looking forward to "Where'd You Go" and "Everlong" the most. I can sing both of those pretty well without lyrics or music so I think they will be fun.

    Maybe this isn't the best time to tell you that Santeria isn't confirmed.

    It's part of the main setlist for Guitar Hero: World Tour, and it's rumored to be one of the 20 free downloads for Rock Band 2, but nothing concrete about Santeria in RB2 has been announced.

    While I'd love to play Trapped Under Ice and Assassin I don't want to have to wade through Tokio Hotel, Flo-Rida, and boss battles to do it.
