I dont have the link, but you can add two wired xploder guitars for $9.99 each, total for the game and three guitars is $33.00 shipped, free shipping. So like $10 for two extra controllers

You have to choose the payment first. Then the coupon code screen shows up.

Thanks! I'd been waiting for a great deal on GHII with guitar on the 360 to go along with the GH3 and guitar I already have so I could play multiplayer again (had GH1 & 2 with guitars on the PS2 before selling the console).
Game to $16 something shipped for me.

Does anyone know if the wired Xplorer guitars for the 360 can be used with the newest Guitar Heros (World Tour) and Rock Band 1 and 2?

Now I have 3 guitars from CC.com, GHIII , and GH2 + another controller. In total I paid $60 for 4 guitar controllers and GH2 + GH3. Not bad (and GHIII was using credit so I only paid $46 cash)

This is not a Gift Certificate. Its a promo code. To enter the promo code you have to be at the Review & Submit order screen which is the screen right after you enter your payment info.
Not that hard kids.

I grabbed a bundle and 2 extra guitars for ~$30 shipped. As was mentioned earlier, this is not a bad route since the before coupon total was over $49 and it qualifies for free shipping.
Shipping came to about $6 for the game and guitar bundle, so I basically grabbed the 2 extra guitars for only $14 more, all things considered.
Icehearted
12-07-2008, 02:45 PM
Total for me was 18.87 after shipping. A few weeks ago I would have paid as much for just a guitar controller. I'm really impressed with this deal. Big thanks for posting it!

Yeah, it's a good deal if you want the extra controllers. I hesitated for a bit as I don't really need the 2nd controller (after my GHIII one) laying around since I played 2 player so seldomly when I had GH 1& 2 on the PS2. But I couldn't pass it up for the price, but I definitely couldn't justify getting even more plastic guitars. :D

If you're gonna get the game and an extra controller just add a second one for less than two bucks more since shipping becomes free. I think this makes 5 plastic guitars being delivered to my place this holiday season.

Um, not sure if you've ever played Guitar Hero II but it really is the best of the series. World Tour is a joke. I'd really hate to see you pass on this game.

BUt then figure in
Guitar Hero: Aerosmith 14.99 via gamefly
Around 33 bucks shipped for GH 2 with Guitar + aerosmith game
this would be a Very cheap way to get the games
Serious McMopy
12-07-2008, 04:35 PM
nice deal.. now I just need a world tour dealFor me, it would be a deal on GH: Aerosmith.
Very tempting to rebuy GHII for this price, though I really don't need another Xplorer.
'Course, IMO the Xplorer is the best guitar out for the 360. Solid build and durable as hell.
EDIT - the Xplorer trades for ~$4-5 at Gamestop. Most stores are flooded with them.

I almost bit, but for me after shipping and tax it comes out to $21 and change...
I'd do it if the coupon applied to getting multiple bundles as I could gift a second one away, but other than that I don't need the extra guitars as I jumped on the GH3+GHWT 2 guitar bundle set awhile back and already had a GH3 bundle...

Got the bundle and an extra Xplorer for $28.14.
As much as I love Rock Band, their Strats suck. I've always loved my Xplorer, but recently it's been going a bit wonky on me (only strummed it about 15 million times), so I figured I'd get some insurance guitars.
By the way, the bundle comes with a guitar carrying case too!

I really don't get that.
I have a shipping discount I can use through my work (I could send stuff for free, but I ship too many things), and I can't even ship an item securely with this size and weight for $7.
I think this is as cheap as it gets for the game plus guitar, unless, there is some uber-glitch with stackable codes.
Shit, it even comes with a carrying case.

My kids broke my old wired guitar so I just bought a new one. I will trade in the game to get some of my money back as I now have two of them. I ordered the single rechargable batter pack and an extra battery which I wanted anyway and it took me just up to free shipping. Did not want any extra guitars as I already have 5-7 around the house from all the bundles.

Got into the GH games late and never had GHII. I had to pull the trigger on this deal, despite my wallet crying like a baby that got the boob taken right outta it's mouth. 29.97 for the game and 3 guitars, plus a guitar bag is a smooth deal. I guess I can sell of one or two of the guitars on ebay and may end up getting this game, guitar and bag for close to free.

Oh well I got the same bundle from them at release but for like $70 more lol.
Yeah the bundle is sold out it looks like. I'm trying to get two controllers plus GHII but the damn coupon is not taking $20 off my total. It's still showing $47 something as my total, what the hell?
Now the 9.99 guitars are sold out. Damn.

Even if it's more than the game, you get a guitar for $2 more.
I didn't get the extra two guitars because it was $15 extra, and I have too many lying around.

I sent a followup email the next day and updated my open case number and still no reply. It is almost like the deal was a mistake and they are trying to salvage somehow by not shipping orders. Bet if I cancelled the order they would replay quickly but not going to do so.

I ordered the bundle only, and mine is back ordered. Sent them a message early yesterday to see what back ordered would mean in terms of a shipping date, NO response from them as of now. I really hope that I receive the bundle by the end of next week, but I am beginning to doubt that.

I just got off the phone with Red Octane's customer support and I'm going to paraphrase what they said:
"The item you ordered is out of stock and wont return back in stock due to the controller (XPlorer) no longer being in production. The orders will be canceled within 5 days."

Strange, considering how their inventory system was able to tell users when they were out of stock.
Do they expect us to believe they can't properly enter a simple number into the inventory database? If I have 20 bundles, then I input 20 into the system. When it hits 0, I'm all out.
Sounds like bullshit to me.

Mine is still pending fulfillment. I got a feeling I will be sent down backordered/canceled lane soon. Between this and the nonsense with the Borders' $10 HD-DVD boxsets, I am annoyed.

For those that had their order shipped (congrats!), what time did you submit your order?

I'm not sure the time ordered mattered much. I placed one order, which is showing as backordered, and then placed another order on a different card for a relative an hour later, which has shipped and will be here today.
bigdaddybruce44

Yeah, the time seems insignificant. I placed an order a little after this thread started, and mine still hasn't shipped. Keeping my fingers crossed, but I have pretty much lost hope.

For anyone looking for cheap GH bundles, someone reported in the Radioshack clearance thread that they saw GH3 bundles for the 360 at $20.

same here... mine has yet to be shipped (order pending fulfillment), and they've already charged my card as well.
I called their number, hit option 2, and no one picks up... apparently there is "no one available to assist me. Please check out our online support/case system..."
So I check out their online support system, and fill in a case.
It's been 3 days, and I've yet to hear from anyone :(
I'm kinda pissed...

Terrible job here by them, in my opinion. I won't be ordering anything else directly from them in the future.

Looks like my Guitar II bundle is backordered, but the two guitars are not. However, I'm still in pending fulfillment. I doubt they'll actually ship me a Guitar Hero II bundle.
Someone should call and bitch and try to get a Guitar III bundle subbed. :evil:
EDIT: HAHHA, I just pounded buttons at the message saying no one was available and got access into their directory. I called some random dude who sounded like the saddest guy ever. He said he had nothing to do with Red Octane and I asked if he knew someone who could help me and he said, "Sorry." Wait, this isn't funny, I'm pissed! Damn it!

Just checked the status on my order and it says Closed and backordered 0. I tried calling them but I couldn't get a person. They have the worst call waiting system ever. Repeats the message twice and then auto-disconnects you. I'm having fun playing with there answering service. If you press 0 and wait it will let you record a message.
For people that were wanting this for the guitar there is a thread floating around about 9.99 X-Plorer guitars on TRU. Sign up on rewardsrus and you get a free shipping code. I had to order 2 guitars to get the free shipping code to work.

My order status was changed to Closed today and i called them.. i actually was able to get someone pretty quickly.. he said that the code wasn't valid for that offer and that it was completely back ordered. don't get how people still got it.
w.e the new one GHWT15, he said is supposed to work so i might try that one

Mine was closed as well. I send a email asking them to replace the GH2 bundle with another. I placed my order when everyone else did as well. Not sure how I didn't get it.

Mine still says Pending Fulfillment but if peoples orders are being closed, i bet mine will too:cry:.
GHWT seems to take 15 bucks off the World Tour + xplorer bundle making it cost $30 before shipping i rather have GH2!!
bluehat9
12-12-2008, 10:58 AM
So "closed" means the order is going to be canceled? I'm ordering the GHWT bundle then. If you add a $5 strap you can qualify for free shipping and then use GHWT15 to get $15 off so it's $35 shipped. Might as well get a free strap instead of paying for shipping.

Ugh. I ordered right away and had paid with Paypal. Looked at my order online and it shows the dreaded closed. It shows '0' for backordered. So I had no idea about any of this until I got the email from Paypal saying I had gotten a refund from RedOctane.
That sucked ass. I won't be depending on their site for any orders from here out.

Sucks to those who had their orders cancelled. Really no excuse for not emailing people about it. Also for not having a monitor on the site so that they only accepted orders they could fill.
