Rock Band versus real band
Oh hi Cheryl

 

[CitySickness]

So I went and bought this yesterday. It's BRRRRRIIIIIIILLIANT.

I'm now seeing note charts floating across my eyelids all the time, my left hand has atrophied into a kind of claw, and Don't Fear The Reaper is constantly looping in my head. So, y'know, caveat emptor and all that.

 

[the departed]

nearly bought a 2nd hand one yesterday for 120 quid.

which by the way, is still available on adverts.ie

 

[CitySickness]

Best offer I could find for a new one was in HMV: €200 for all the instruments + the game.

 

[the departed]

yeah so 120 is pretty good then...

id go for it but ive gotta stop splurging!

 

[CitySickness]

If you've got a bunch of drunkards who can come around every once in a while, then €120 is well worth it.

 

[flashback]

here, if any of yis are knocking around downtown NYC, and want to buy a copy of this I get a daysunt enough academic discount through work it seems.
I think.
I mean, my mate was over here, and he was looking at the prices of music software compared to home and he was saying it was dirt cheap.
I think I am allowed to buy one or two copies a year, and.. yeah, I'm on zero at the moment.
It might be worth your trouble anyway.

awesome with four people
I'm determined to try to learn the real drums out of it now

Hey City you might want to check your disc for scratches
I only noticed mine had a huge scratch circle after it cut out
just as I was about to polish off epic by faith no more, doh. I'm bringing it back to game today.

Do you have your console vertical or horizontal? Dunno if it makes any difference mind you.

horizontal, after a bitter lesson last year with the grinding and the scratching of gears of war. I'm 99% sure that
the scratch was already on the disc as it hasn't happened with anything else since i went flat

 

[Stan Bowles]

I need to move flat before I can get the drums.

 

[1000smurfs]

i feel your pain i can't move in my house for tripping over
a plastic instrument. Did ye see the GH4 drum kit:

 

[the departed]

i was reading up about GH4 and theres going to be a section where you can make your own music...

i dont know about this..seems like a step too far..?

 

[1000smurfs]

seems like a logical progression to me,It'll be interesting to see whether it turns out to be a throwaway gimmick or something more substantial.

if they can make it fun and easy to create, play and distribute user creations then they could be on to a winner.

10er bets there'll be a hit single by a virtual GH/Rockband band in the next 5 years
