Rock Band 3

[Stormy]

So who has it? Who is getting? Opinions?

Just got back from game with a copy and managed to get it for a tenner through having some spare cash on an old gift card! Cant complain!

It seems to be reviewing really well too so its got to be worth a try.

Isn't this the one with the synthesizer keyboard? I literally want the game just for that to fufill my desire to rock out playing a keyboard. Plus the commericial is the most awesome part of Bohemian Rhapsody. So I always have to sing along when it comes on.

No different to Rock Band 2 unless you get the keyboard/pro guitar. So if that sounds fun to you go pick it up.

I'm pleased with the game only because it's been the main focus when I get together with friends since RB1, but I can't see why you would buy this game and play it alone.

I bought it with the keyboard bundle. It's awesome and of course the best iteration of Rock Band ever. I can see me logging a bunch of hours into this guy if I didn't have damn school.

I recommend everyone picking it up to play!

Been meaning to start playing Guitar again for ages, this may just be the thing that gets me to do so! Just hope to god they bring out some decent DLC!

It has Yes. It's the best one yet.

No other rhythm game could have Yes without a keyboard. That's like the bulk of any of their songs.

I think the keyboard really allows for a foray into the rock of the 70s when everyone had one. I fully expect the extended rendition of the Edgar Winter Group - Frankenstein. It was in the first Guitar Hero and you played the ridiculous keyboard sections on the guitar.

I know it comes with the keyboard, but what about the other instruments? Are they any higher quality? With the predecessors I went through 3 Microphones and my drum kit is (finally) dying.

If the ones it come with are a bit better, and it has the Harmonies system that the Beatles Rockband introduced, then I'm in.

Especially since it has The Cure.

Having played this for a wile now, im pretty disipointed about the set list. There are a few decent songs but there is a hell'a lot of junk that doesn't even have any guitar music in the songs :/ and found the general setup of the single player mode to be quite confusing.

Not really sure what to do with it now

Let me play through all of Painkiller or Songs For The Deaf and I may consider it. GET ON IT HARMONIX.
