The games use MY bandwidth that I already paid for though my ISP when I host a game. IMO, multiplayer should be free for all and something more needs to separate Gold from Silver. Not online play. Throw the Gold members (haha..I said Gold member) a little more free content or something. Discounts on content. Anything.

Ok, sorry...back on topic. Ahhh...I don't agree with the pricing. This is Red Octane's Horse Armor and I bet we won't see pricing like this next time around.

Actually, Gold members pay for a portion of the bandwidth, etc. We only pay what $50 a year... That pays a fraction of what you are burning. However that is why they charge for downloads. However, there’s industry reasonableness and music has set that bar at $0.99 a song. Hence the reason this seems insane. On a side note I played it for the first time ever last night and couldn’t get through one song. I don’t think I’ll need this for a long, long, long time…

For those that were thinking about getting this game, I would not let these packs sway you away from GH2. Going through the included songs at each level should take you quite awhile, and hopefully will justify the games cost.

And maybe by then, they will have eating crow and fixed the pricing model.

Very good point Serren. I'd like to see how the Whammy Bar is addressed and will probably wait until a price drop before I pick it up. I have so many good games right now and don't really have anyone here locally to play with. If I did, or this had online play, I would be more inclined to pick it up.

Video starts alittle slow but stick it out till they play http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2007/04...mons-rock-nyc/ I was a big KISS fan in the day and it would be awesome to stand up there with THE DEMON! That kid nails it also. I might have to try this game, looks fun
