Rock Band Question

Just curious. Can the Guitar Hero controllers be used to play Rock Band? If so I'd buy a copy of the game only just to get more songs.

Yes. The Les Paul and Xplorer models can be used with RB. But the RB strat can't be used with the GH games. Also, I believe they are only selling $179 bundles until Feb. of next year.

I think Sams Club is selling JUST the game on launch day... (if not other retailers too).

Linker


But hey - I thought the whole point to getting RB was to get the DRUMS!!!!!

I mean, I'm sure Peench is all about getting the "mic / tambourine" thing and living out his dream of being Tracy Partridge, but it's really all about the drum kit man!!

thanks for that info shibumi! we had killed the idea of getting RB because 169 was just to steep for us right now, but knowing that the game can be bought seperately is awesome!! im sure there will be drums all over ebay and hopefully some aftermarket ones will hit the shelves someday

Rockstar will become famous soon enough

Harmonix will not comfirm compatibility, but hopefully they will be compatible, as Rockband guitars will not be available seperately until nxt year.

Harmonix said that the GHII and GHIII controllers are compatible. They've said so many times.

I have talked with the folks at Harmonix, and they have told me that they "can not say", and to contact Activision or Red octane.

Do you know if the PS3 version supports the GH guitars?

Not sure about the PS3 versions. I know for a fact the 360 versions do, but I have yet to hear if the PS3 Les Paul works(though I'd imagine it would)

The PS3 Les Paul does NOT work with Rock band, it thinks it is a sixaxis, and pairs it with the microphone.
The PS2 guitrs with a dongle adapter do not work either, we had to buy two complete sets to play the game.
