Rock Band  

Actually, when you perform songs on Rock Band without making a certain number of mistakes, it unlocks bonus songs. We have Guitar Hero Country and the other two games are Rock Star...The Beatles and Classic Rock. I also don't have any trouble with the drum pedal.

Last Saturday, all three of my kids were home from college, and they all had friends over! At one point there were 9 young people in my livingroom, ranging in age from 18 to 22! I guess you could add my husband in there, cuz he was playing too! so from 18 to 41!
They were having a ball, and nobody was really fighting over the instruments at all. They were passing back and forth depending on the song, and who wanted to sing what etc...

We just got our Wii a couple of weeks ago. We sure have enjoyed it so far. Tonight Lauren and I went to Gamestop and picked up a couple of Previously Viewed Games. We got My Word Coach, which is puzzle games to increase your vocabulary. It will help my daughter who is taking a composition class in college a whole bunch.
We also got another one of the sports game that has pool, table tennis, and vow racing on it.

Yeah, the year before last when they were fairly new on the market, they were hard to find, and so much more expensive than they are now! We paid just less than half for ours than what my sister in law did for theirs Two years ago!
I love all the games that are available for them now too!

I do love the graphics. It was the only thing that I really liked about the Beatles game, was that the graphics actually look like Paul, Ringo, and John!
Unlike the Country version of Guitar Hero where the graphics for the Kenny Chesney song--the man looks like a hippie that escaped from the 70's!

I've never tried to grunge talk into the microphone. How does one go about doing that. I'm so old and out of talk for the new lingo that you may have to explain to me exactly what grunge talk is!
As far as the instruments, Rock Band has the drums and Guitar, and mike, just like the Guitar Hero does. I want to add the optional bass drum

Old?! lol....I think I'm older than you but my boys listen to this music once in a while and it ususally sounds like the singer drank a couple gallons of oil & paint thinner it's like a low growl but it's fun to do on the mic on the games. If you've ever heard the music from Machine Head or job for a cowboy they're a good example.

no..those are both new groups to me! LOL Well, I'll be 43 next week, so am I younger than you?
My kids are all big country music fans so I'm not much into the MTV music anymore.
We also like alot of the praise and worship music. The only Christian music is for Praise guitar, and none of it is compatitble with Guitar Hero or Rock Band. I wish it were, because I think they would sell alot more of the disks if you didn't have to purchase a new guitar.

Looks like I'm about two and a half months older than you Carpenter....
You got me to thinking.....my kids have been playing guitar hero more than rock band since the drums got broken, maybe I'll try to piece it out and sell it on ebay or something.....everything works but the far left drum so I'll have to probably scrap that out.

It might work! Someone might be interested in purchasing just the guitar if that's the piece of their set that is broken. My kids want to add Praise Guitar to the set. It's a Contemporary Christian set of songs. Unfortunately, I've done some digging and the two games aren't compatible. I'd havve to purchase a whole new guitar for them. So we'll have to wait and see.

That surprises me that you're unable to find it, because I haven't noticed that there was a shortage here. You might try Ebay or half.com to see if either of these have it. I know they usually ship to other countries. Have you looked at Amazon? I don't know if they ship outside the United States or not.
