Remember the insane Rock Band pricing rumours we heard recently? Well, the EB Games website has confirmed them. If you missed it, $289.95 for the drum kit, guitar and microphone, $119.95 for the game, $109.95 for one guitar and $169.95 for the drum kit. Yes, for the ‘complete’ Rock Band set you will have to pay $520. Is that just a little too much to be asking for a game delayed so long? More inside To make matters worse, retailers do not want to stock the game anyway! Word is that they just don’t feel the need to bother with a bulky product that is a year late when soon the already popular Guitar Hero franchise will offer the same thing. And on-time at that.
The coming sequel, Rock Band 2, may simply not see an Australian release at all. Unless we see a price drop, Australia seems set to become Guitar Hero land.
