These aren't official - as the handsome, studly and suprisingly charming guys at EA Partners mentioned in the conference call yesterday, packages and prices are still to be determined and announced.<br>

[HaiTek]

That looks rather expensive if you're getting every peripheral... OHH SNAP! I wonder if you can use your Socom headset!!!!! :o<br>

[Rainer7]

It's funny that you mentioned this because I just got back from Gamestop and preordered the game + wireless guitar + drums and those were the prices that they gave me.<br>

[decoyoct]

They only put those SKUs in there so people could reserve them. The prices are guesses I bet.<br>

[bounchfx]

I'd honestly be pretty pissed if you can't use the headset microphone and were forced to shell out 40 for a mic. I'd even call it -'ever going to buy the mic and do vocals ever because 40 is way too much money for a microphone in general'<br>

[Dustjavo]

god this game will cost me a fortune! Screw it, I'm just going to buy 1 instrument! <br>

Has anyone paid any attention to the second post in the topic?&nbsp; Those are not the actual prices, those are just placeholder prices so reserves can be processed.<br>

They are probably just SKUs for the game, not real prices, only set there for the company to get reserves.<img src="http://www.rockbandgame.com/file/smile/bowl.gif"> <br></p>

<p>Let me nip this one in the bud right now.&nbsp; Those are estimated prices and not official in any even remote way.&nbsp; We haven't even decided on prices ultimately, much less announced them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

Should just close this topic then, dont want to be a spreader of FUD <IMG src="http://www.rockbandgame.com/file/smile/tongue.gif">

[Rainer7]

Realistically, I'd slash the prices for each peripheral by $20, that would look like a more accurate price.<br>

[rspooky]

<p>thanks sean</p><p>I just saw these prices and came to sound the bell and the proclaim the redcoats were coming <img src="http://www.rockbandgame.com/file/smile/tongue.gif"></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Good the hear you guys are on this :)<br>&nbsp;</p>

[Grissom]

Are you guys even considering a 'full set' SKU? That might be Steel Battalion dollars right there. On a somewhat related note, are GH controllers compatible with Rock Band? Or are those rights owned by Red Octane? I hope I can use them so I can save money. :(<br>

[sa_nick]

<p>So we know the prices are just estimates, but what about the release date...</p><p><font color="#ed4a1b" face="Verdana,Arial" size="1"><b>Pre-Release<br>Ships 11/1/07</b></font></p><p>That sounds good to me, I was imagaining late November release. But how official is this date?</p><p>And as for the price, these estimates have given us an idea of how much it'll cost, we've got like 7 months to save up the cash... its possible.... or at least it would be if you werent still saving up for a ps3... *pout*&nbsp;</p>
