Source was a friend in the industry, but it is also currently being reported on Eurogamer about now.
It'll probably be cheaper to import a US Rockband bundle and buy the game on its own over here and sell the US copy.... talk about rape
With the possible exception of CoD4 there is not a single game in the top ten of either format which commands more than £39.99 where I work.
Do you shop at Marks and Spencers for your games?
I'm hoping for a decent Rockband bundle as well but £130 means that you'll be getting the game for free which I doubt anyone will do so my guess is around £150 for the bundle :-(
Either way I want the PS3 version so I'm going to have to wait longer anyway booooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
Whatever the reason, at that price I hope no one buys it because for fucks sake you can buy a goddamn wii or 360 arcade for that amount!
IMPORT.
I have a PS3 and i knew that if i waited for the European 360 version i knew we'd get the shaft. And since im based in Ireland you can add another 10-15 euro onto that price just because...
Although that said, isn't the multi-USB adaptor externally powered? So adapter would be needed.
If so, would it not make much more sense to buy them from the US, get a copy of the game in the UK and send a picture of yourself with the wireless instruments and a spare £25 to EA courtesy of the "Screw You!" department?
The 360 instruments are all wired and I think only the guitars are wireless on the PS3 (although I may be mistaken on that one)
Also it seems that we don't save that much by importing because of shipping. Either way if you're going to get Rockband I hope you import anyway to get it because it comes to around the same price and if you can't I hope you boycott this because we need to tell EA to fuck right off with their prices.
I think the PS3 guitars are wireless but im entirely too sure about that, the 360 is definitely wired.

Quote of the year, im actually convinced that should be where the review spots on the back of the box should be...

FAIL.
@razerangel - weird... perhaps the fact that I live in poverty stricken rural-land means we are charged a little less...
Either way, went out today, only saw three titles on the 360 over £40, one was CoD4, one was CoD4 C.E. and one was Devil May Cry 4 L.E.
The PS3 games were on average £38, none were more than £42 though...
@Scape - "This is a new high point for Europeans getting fucked" - I reckon this is why Europeans are famed lovers. "Them Europeans, always being fucked. Fucked in the morning, fucked in the shops, fucked at work..."
