100 bucks? NO THANKS

meh i'd rather buy more rock band.

LOL. WTF is with the drum set shown on the box? Are they trying to mislead people into thinking it will work with the Rock Band drums or something?

I also see no point in this product and will not be getting it, especially not for $100.

Wait I'm even more confused... the box at the top for the ps3 version says wireless guitar. Did that change?

"The game and guitar will go for $99 on the Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii"


AHAHAHAHA
Oh... jesus. Fuck no!
If I find out anyone bought this, I will ridicule them forever.

And it looks like a "Train Kept' Rollin'" all over your humor, CTZ.

Why the hell didn't they just make it an expansion like the 80s one? I mean, really.

Methinks it's the other way around on this one based on box art. Also, any info on standalone version pricing? That seems to be full price, and for essentially another "Rocks the 80s" that's a crock of crap.

@jpitner

amazon has it listed as 50 for wii and ps2, and 60 for ps3 and 360

Until they let harmonix release the patch for rockband I won't be buying another one. That and there is no reason to release something like this for PS3 and 360 when you could do down loadable song packs.

I'm a sucker for Aerosmith so I'm gonna get this. I was gonna buy the 360 version with the guitar but now I'm kinda put off that it's wired. Not that it's much of an issue. Just seems like a step backwards.

Then again, that custom Aerosmith faceplate is pretty sweet.

Wow, if I didn't think the whole pricing factor was sketchy enough, Activision is expecting to you pay the same price as a GH3 bundle for a wired guitar and half the songs (more or less).

That bundle just screams rip off.

Isn't "All The Young Dudes" Mott the Hoople?

@ razerangel: Yup, but it's one of the "other artists" tracks in the collection. Just let CTZ go with it. :) I actually consider it a David Bowie song myself, since he wrote and sang the song for Mott the Hopple to keep them from quitting on the music business. Amusingly, it's pretty much the only song they're remembered for.

Since I'm in the market for a second guitar anyway, I might go ahead and get the bundle and save $10 on the game. I still wish they'd re-release Guitar Hero 1 & 2 for non-Playstation systems though.

Aerosmith, really? Come on.

INDIGNATION! OUTRAGE~~!!

Come on, guys. It's the same deal it's always been for Guitar Hero games. And it's not really "Rock The 80's" as there are more songs, I'm sure a higher percentage of them coming from the original artists (considering Aerosmith is obviously doing all their own songs), they added new venues, characters, animations...I can't argue that they could have just done these as DLC, but 60 songs for $60 is a lot better deal than buying DLC packs for $2+ per song. If you don't like it, don't buy it. Let's not start with the whole "damn cash grabbing tactics" complaints because a) we knew all along that GH games would just become new collections of songs (how many new features can you really add?) and b) Rock Band will do it to and YOU KNOW IT. There will be a Rock Band 2, and 3, and on and on, DLC be damned.

@ Seventh Rectory-

Yeah, because we won't be seeing Rock Band 4 and Skate 4 on shelves several years from now. Keep believing that!

@ Kyo: Confirmed so far:

All the Young Dudes by Mott the Hoople, Dream Police by Cheap Trick, I Hate Myself for Loving You by Joan Jett, All Day and All of the Night by The Kinks, Complete Control by The Clash, and Personality Crisis by New York Dolls.

Rumors are saying we'll also be getting songs from Lenny Kravitz, The Black Crowes, Run-DMC, Stone Temple Pilots, Deep Purple, and The White Stripes.

100?
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

@ akathatoneguy

Yeah, I know. I'll just be saying the same thing about them when the time comes. =P

An entire game focusing on ONE group for $60/$100? Bull-f**king-shit! I don't care who that group is!

Man, I hope Activision loses out big on this.

the line that broke the [guitar]hero's back. guitar hero is dead. although i do still like playing the current ones. but i just dont see it getting any better..

I’m only buying this if two things happen: (1) they make the song list awesome, and (2) they sell the game disc by itself; I already have a Les Paul controller from GH III.

they should have dome DLC instead

100$ for aerosmith is a lot

@KyleGamgee: I agree with you, I put down GH3 the day Rockband came out, my 37 year old fingers just can't perform feats like what GH3 demanded you perform. I've never gotten past Guitar Hero on Hard, 1, 2 or 3, they just keep ramping up the difficulty. When I get better they crank it up a notch and I have to go back to medium. I passed Guitar Hero 2 on Hard a while back, but it took a considerable effort.

Now that albums are out for Rock Band, I hope they add online World Tour mode, or announce Rock Band 2, asap.

Reflecting on wow power leveling ideas, I was wow power leveling very happy wow power leveling it explained a wow power leveling of things.

The game is merely a medium through which you play against the other player.

I learned first hand that when all seems lost, if you push, push, push and never give up, it's still possible to win.
