    From what I hear, the 360 was the lead console in development, so it was obviously ready first, so they decided to release it early. Makes sense since you can use the first game's instruments.

    Microsoft actually settled some kind of marketing deal with Harmonix; I don't think the Xbox 360 version of the game was the "lead."

    Basically, Microsoft bribed Harmonix.

    I agree with you. I mean what sense does it make(from a business stand point) to just release the disc, and not a bundle with the instruments?

    The 360 version was the lead platform and so it was finished first which is why it was released first.

    Anyways I don't really give a damn since I have the game anyways...

    Because you'll spend more money if you buy them separately. If you're patient enough to wait, you're still going to spend a lot of money (just not quite as much). So if you think about it, it makes pretty damn good sense from a business standpoint.

    Even though there's no UK release date for Rock Band 2, I'm expecting it'll be at least a year away. Seeing as the first game only just came out for the PS3 a few days ago. Damn you.
