Rock Band 3

mr dave · 06-14-2010, 06:28 PM

right now in the living room there are 4 guitars, 1 is dead (GH3), 2 drum kits, 2 mics, and about a dozen game discs.

i've got somewhere around 160 tracks in GH and around 250 in RB. i play on PS3, if anyone wants to try playing online send me a PM.

@ xEMGx - gotta ask, you say you're interested in Pro mode but bored with the current product. have you already aced everything? i kind of figured Pro mode was created mostly for the minority of players who got to the point of handling expert mode without much challenge but haven't gotten bored of the actual game.

Um, to be quite honest with you, I am ashamed to play because I am pretty good. I wouldn't say I aced everything, still a bit shaky on expert drums, and some songs could still kick my ass, but I was good enough on the guitar to say **** this and actually pick up a real instrument. Don't play too much since then.

that's fair. though i don't see why being good would make you ashamed to play. it's awesome when you can find a good group of experts to play with online hehe. personally i did the opposite of you and ended up putting my real instruments down in favour of the plastic after our jam room flooded and life happened. which is one of the reasons i'm REALLY hoping the rockband network crosses platforms and the studio tools ship with the new game.

If it's as good as it sounds, I just might pick up a copy with the guitar.

What do you mean by Rock Band Network crosses platforms?

right now the Rockband Network is primarily geared towards 360 players. if you have a 360 and a Live Gold membership and possibly another developer upgrade to your account you could buy a 12 month license to gain access to the actual tools Harmonix used to make the RB tracks so bands and musicians could create and submit their own content.

i'm hoping they offer PS3 support with the new version of the game. they're supposed to offer 'choice' selections from the material submitted by 360 users, but i really don't want to have to buy another console AND get pay a monthly fee for online functionality, AND a premium for more online functionality, AND a yearly fee so i can make homemade RB tracks for me and my friends.

also - CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC!!!!!!!!

even though i still can't get through the drum solo in If 6 was 9 haha.

Yeah I'm very excited about pro mode especially being a real drummer. I also will probably pick up the guitar because I've always wanted to learn a bit of guitar but I'm too lazy and find it too fiddly haha..

Oh, and thanks for the set list, I'll add it to the OP - try and get more info into it. :P
