Well I put in a pre-order at best buy yesterday as I had about $14 in gift cards and I think they were they only people giving away something with the pre-order (hooray another XL shirt that won't fit me ). Gotta get through as many songs as I can before football starts up tommorow...

On a side note BB had a GH:Aerosmith setup and I played it for a bit. I honestly hate the Les Paul controller. It's smaller and maybe this was just at this BB but the buttons required some finger strength to press down. I play real guitar and feel I have ample finger strength but this thing was on the verge of obnoxious.

I have a weird question when someone has it. Guitar Hero 3 on ps3 wouldn't run in anything besides 720p. I'm sure this actually runs or can run in 1080p right? I thought about getting rock band 2, and getting rock band later on.

Rock Band 1 was at 720p...I'll report back after I snag my copy of 2 in half an hour. You may as well just rent rock band 1 if your planning on getting 2, as for $5 off of the psn you can export the rock band 1 songs onto your hdd.

Thats what I was thinking. The only bad part is all the rental stores near me don't have it,but they have the 360 version... lol

RB1 only went up to 720p. However, it doesn't utilize the entire screen (has some black boarders). It definitely looks better than GH3.

720p and yes mana knight is right it's sub 720p so i have to turn on overscan to get it to fill my 1080p

RB2 is in stores today, right? Anyone get a copy yet?

picking up my copy later today, don't know how much time I'll have to play tho

I'm still just trying to decide which kit I want to get. The smart thing to do is wait till next week, but I want the game bad!

I don't really care about the World Tour game, but the instruments look nice. This is a tough choice!

My copy shipped from Amazon on Friday. Should have it before the end of this week coming.

With Socom, RockBand 2, Bioshock coming out of my bank these last few days I'm now poor.

I just got the merch chick. The songs are so much better in Rock Band 2 than they were in 1.

Does it run in 1080i or 1080p compared to rock band? I'm thinking of ordering it from CC today. I have 30 dollars of gift cards I need to use, and rb2 is 49.99

As I stated previously, it runs in 720p.

Nevermind; $19.99-39.99.

hmm got mine today, string of random dongles is not the most elegant solution for wireless. I've noticed the drums acting up a bit. anyone else?

also the sync camera doesn't work very well.

Got my game only copy that I'll be using with RB1 drums and GH3 guitar once my fiance gets home from a work meeting tonight. By the way.. if anyone has an extra copy of Rock Band 1 laying around, and would be willing to let me borrow it PM me. I'll pay for shipping and think of something nice (PSN game?) in exchange.

Anyone know if the RB1 unlock key is gameshareable?

I don't think so metaly.

So how does rock band handle the world tour drums?

World Tour isn't out yet.

uh, these new drums are staring to piss me off a bit.

they're hitting random buttons for no apparent reason even when i'm not pressing anything.
I put it on pause to go get a drink. when after a couple of seconds it kicked itself out of pause.

anyone else getting these problems?

well looks like this problem has hit a few other people on harmonix's board. man for this price I don't want to have to deal with this crap. Going to return this game to BB right now.

returned the game. In case people were curious about what I'm talking about
