Pretty Good Times with Friends October 5, 2008 Well, I was recently invited to a friend's BBQ and tried this out for the first time. The whole package came with a game disc which was scratched up. Best Buy clerk let my friend exchange the game disc for another one. However, the clerk reminded us that whole package should have been returned and replaced rather than only the game disc. The pieces were easy to put together but some friends had issue with the quality of the parts. The guitar had this head piece that was difficult to snap on. Also, the drum set seemed a bit unsecured but was corrected after reading instructions. The USB hub had some problem with recognizing the microphone but don't know if this is just a freak accident.
The game disc has a couple of songs which was a letdown. But, these songs were fairly easy to sing to and play along. People were nervous about singing alone but you don't really hear it. The game console just monitors if you have the right tones (high, low, medium). Also, there is only the long notes where your voice is projected. Overall, you should start at the easy setting and then work up to difficult. Guitar was by far the easiest to do. Just follow the color scheme on the screen to the buttons on the guitar. The drums was just a tad bit harder since you are moving around each of the drums. After a while, just sit back and watch others since you get to see others polishing their skill. Well, it's a crowd-pleaser that everyone can't really screw-up too badly in the company of friends.
We LOVE Wii Rock Band! October 2, 2008 I bought this because we had adult children coming to visit. Little did I know that I would enjoy the game as much as they do! Rock Band gives everyone an opportunity to play at their level. We bought an extra guitar so we could include the bass player. GREAT way to have fun as a family!
great rockband September 30, 2008 i recieved the rockband quickly. my niece turned 21 yrs. she was so excited. had all her friends over and all they did was play together, they all had so much fun. this game is great to have friends and familys do something together. this is one of the best inventions to come out. i love this game. rockband 2 will be out soon. but it does not matter how much better it is. you still have fun together whether it is rockband 1 or 2.
Well worth the $$ September 29, 2008 Great game my kids enjoy playing very much ages 11,9,6. They can play together or alone.
Guituar Hero vs Rock Band September 29, 2008 Hooked on GH wanted to broaden fun, but much harder to follow vs GH notes screen display... harder to follow.
