That's a pity. At my place, there are tons of more PS3 Rock Band pre-orders than 360 ones.

Finally! Wooohoooooo!!!

I'm ok with the price I guess.

It's BS for people who don't have 360s though. :(

Odd choice considering the same hardware works on PS3 and PS2. They could've sold the hardware in one box and software in another, and hit a much larger installed base.

How odd. If it makes you feel better, I do actually know that the correct spelling is in the thread title.

You might want to go lie down or something though. Do you have a decent mattress over there in Yurop?

this smells of a moneyhat thing to me, especially seeing as how there's no singstar equivalent on the 360. maybe it's just odd coincidence, though.

OK, thanks.

£130 is massive. I can't believe it will sell too well at that price. Hopefully it'll be at around £99 by Xmas.

I have to say this is a shrewd move by Microsoft if they have secured the exclusivity.

Dubious. 360's wireless implementation is proprietary and to the best of my knowledge, no 3rd party accessory has wireless.

edit: And yes, who's the source?
