Review

Even though Rock Band 2 plays it safe with only minor improvements and additions, it still rocks.

    Why does it say December 19th for Wii? The website says December 9th. Which I believe the website more. And Yes, the Wii will have DLC and Online.

    I bought it. Seems like a great game, but the drums were broken. Then I need to do a RMA and all. I'm waiting for the new set. I looked at the forums and found out there were a real quality problem with the perephiral. I think the game is great, but it'S really frustrating to receive brand new broken equipment.

    Just because you might not like a song doesn't mean a million others do. I hated playing Fall Out Boy in the first game. I avoided that song every chance I had...or I made someone else play for me (since the person I usually pick likes the band).

    I'd like to see a lot of the bands in here, some of which would be perfect for Rock Band but hey...can't win them all.

    I wish there wern't so many legal barriers preventing The Beatles from being in Rock Band. I'd love to rock out to Paperback Writer, Day Tripper or even While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
