I want to know if anyone is getting Rock Band 3. I'm not getting it 'cause it costs too much and some of my friends are already getting it. ($350 Including the String Guitar, Keyboard, and Symbols)

Are you going to get it, and start with Pro Mode?

I'm getting the game and keyboard. The previous Rock Band games have been super fun as party games, and I imagine this will be even more so with the keyboard.

Theres probably some copyright issues and band members may not want their songs in the game (dont ask me why though).

I will be getting the new Rock Band 3 only for the new songs and gameplay. That said I'm really not interested in the new guitar that simulates "real" guitars. If I wanted that I would probably take lessons. Here is hoping the game still has the ability to use the original five buttons.

I am. RB is the best party game IMO, and the Keyboard controller will add a new twist to those parties, no doubt.

Also RB 2 has the most awesome setlist a music game ever had, so i'm importing all the songs to RB3 as soon as a I get the game.

I don't plan on getting it because I don't need that stupid guitar they just came up with. I already play real guitar so wtf do I need to use that for? I play the **** out of Guitar Hero though.

Wow you're so cool... And you don't HAVE to play with the new real guitar. It's still going to be just like the other rock band games where you can play with the five colored buttons as well

No. I decided to go with Guitar Hero this year over Rock Band purely because I prefer the setlist in Warriors of Rock.

No. To me the party nature of RB is pretty dead. You invite people over and suggest it and they aren't really interested - the added complexity of RB3 won't fix that at all. I might add some life to my single player experience though.

So it comes down to new songs maybe? nah, most of the songs are old songs that have been killed over the years from over listening. Sure once or twice would be nice but not for a huge career mode RB throws at you... I hate having to repeat the same songs over and over in career mode just because they were on the pack-in disc.

So RB3 really comes down to the features it offers me personally, but until it comes out and I can ask specifically if certain features are in it then it will remain a no buy for me.

Personally, I plan on getting it just for the Pro Mode feature... Cost is a problem, but still probably better than lessons. Also, the set list for RB3 seems to be pretty good, and i wouldn't mind learning some more about playing guitar, as I'm a pretty mediocre guitar player... I'm also sick of people "air guitar hero/ air rock banding"and bragging cause they can play a song "on expert"... as a guitar player, no matter how bad I am, i still wanna see them try to play anything on a guitar.
