MTV Games has announced immediate cuts to the Special Edition bundles of the first Rock Band. Here are the updated prices.

  • PS2 and Wii: $99.99
  • Xbox 360 and PS3: $139.99

The bundles include the game, a drum kit, guitar, and microphone.

It's being billed as a "special holiday price," but I doubt that means they'll be going back up next year. If anything, all this means that they're trying to help retailers get rid of old stock. I don't know how it is where you're at, but most of the Best Buys and other big retail places around here seem to be swimming in old Rock Band hardware.

So if you're looking to get into the plastic instrument scene on a budget, all that stuff is now a bit more affordable.
