Wow music games are grabbing my attention back this year. The keyboard looks fun and the game itself looks amazing. Also DJ Hero 2 is going on my list since I have the table. Only game that will be on my point and laugh at list is Guitar Hero......Warriors of Rock....lol
You know... it's kinda amazing to me that I'm trying to be "un-hyped" into RB3, yet hearing those guys talk about what they've done and the care of trying to make it better is really impressive.
Don't need more plastic, but do need more songs & tours.
" Keyboard, eh? this game best have some Mr. Blue Sky in it. "duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude. yesssss
So far the track list is awesome, I'm happy to see Metric is finally in a game, as well as Them Crooked Vultrues. But I really can't wait to see Bohemian Rhapsody in there. Also Piano looks badass.
i've been out of the music genre for a few years now...so im kinda excited about this
There needs to be about 10 Dream Theater songs in this game with them all devil tiered on Guitar, drums, and keyboard.
Awww Deadly! they have Rainbow in the Dark by Dio
Pitty they didn't have Holy Diver but still.... can't complain
The 1960's, 1970's and 1980's choices so far are awesome. Severely disappointed with the 90's and 2000's selection so far though :( Nice to see some keyboard gameplay for Bohemian Rhapsody though :D
I'm kinda tired of Rock Band, BUT that keyboard controller looks pretty good, in that it looks like a keyboard. I'll probably buy the keyboard controller.
Hate to admit it, but the keyboard does intrigue me. Then I heard DJ Hero 2 was coming so thats my focus gone.
" For me to buy my first of these games they need atleast 2 of 3 things: they need to have an actual musical score option for the keyboard, a feeplay option for the keyboard, and the option to use 3rd party usb keyboards. Otherwise I don't feel like being patronised by a video game, I'd rather just play my actual piano. "You should check out Synthesia, if you have an actual USB keyboard. It's great -- you can import any .midi file and it'll bring up a GH/RB style interface, letting you play it directly. The number of .midi songs on the web is pretty much unlimited -- sucks that .midi is such a shitty format, though.
Any word on whether the "pro" guitar and drums things or any other new stuff requires you to buy the new hardware. It seemed to be implied that was the case.
"You don't necessarily need to buy the new hardware ... there's enough in the new package in software" sure sounds like you might be missing stuff if you don't buy the new hardware.

Guitar Hero charts for the Dragonforce kidz. No thanks. Good charts and DLC pls." Yeah, everybody ignore that Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock also has Bohemian Rhapsody, along with Children of the Grave, Fascination Street, Paranoid (Live W/Metallica), Sharp Dressed Man, Interstate Love Song among other great hits, just because Guitar Hero put out more than one release last year. "
" Some Nightranger for that ass. "
Bohemian Rhapsody and the Doors plus a keyboard hopefully some Hall and Oates buying it day one.
Sister Christian. 'Nuff said.
Also, I've been meaning to learn keyboard for the longest time now. Perhaps this'll help...
Holy crap, that is an AMAZING early setlist. Can't wait to see whatever else makes the cut.
On watching the video, I'm assuming drum pro mode will require you to hit the cymbals. AWESOME!!!!!!!
I'll take a keyboard bundle please, thank you.
Oh and the Rilo Kiley song is called Portions for Foxes.

" Kind of funny how he talk about their innovationsin the genre, but never actually mentions any...Yeah, exactly. Seems weird.
Bohemian Rhapsody is a strange one. I understand there's a keyboard to consider now, but what are the drummer, bassist and guitarist gonna do for those beginning 2 minutes? Oh, and for most of the song :/. Sigh. "They'll sing along in one of the 3 microphones. ;)

Moar Dream Theater please! We need some Jordan Rudess scale runs to play on that keyboard.
Bohemian Rhapsody alone has sold me though. Talk about the perfect party song.
Keyboard looks like it could be alot of fun
Haha singer had some sweet dance moves.
fuck, Keyboards are more mainstream and thus I can have more girls in my band. And thus this rocks.
With all the music DLC for rock band2, I'm surprised they don't just put out an expansion disc with more music/stages/in game instruments to just put on your system instead of going with a new game.
I love Rock Band so much. can't wait for this to come out. don't care about the keyboard too much. I just love the music.
" Added to rental list. If EA bring that online code across all their franchises, this will be removed from the rentals list. And sadness will reside. "And I will comment representing the half-million other people who are doing the same.
Maybe with Rock Band 4 they add another guitar to differentiate between rhythm and bass. Maybe they can add a pyro control to set off the pyro on stage. Or maybe a roadie controller where you tune guitars and then pass them to the band players. Pass water to a thirsty singer. The drummer needs more drum sticks, quick before he throws his last set in the crowd in the middle of the song. Lower that mic stand, the singer is too short for where it is set.
