If all the 360 instruments are indeed wired, how can Two guitar controllers, A mic, Drums and a regular controller fit on the 360? There are only Three Hole a majags...

Mic plugs into controller. The end.

Now if your controller is wired that's...that's pathetic.

It's long. You can see it in the GameSpot video.

Well Thats good, although to be honest I don't mind if any of the peripherals are wired, kinda of adds to the realistic aspect of it.
but thats just me

Well if the guitars and the drums end up being wired as well, you might have to invest in a wireless controller. There is a fairly decent chance the guitars will be wireless (or at least there will be a wireless option) so I wouldn't worry too much.

In all seriousness though Sushi, did you buy a Core 360 or something?
I'm just curious, because I've never talked to someone who had one.

Also to agree with someone else, the wired way of doing things is more realistic. Yea they have wireless stuff, but cords is just the way to go.

You need to wrap that mic cord around your hand a couple times come on!

If I said it once I must've said it a million times:

Wired guitar + 9-12 extension = PWNGE!

Wireless feels like a toy.

Sushi, just buy yourself one of <a href= "http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7914144&type=product&id=1149207969606">these</a>, if you're so concerned about too many USB products and not enough ports.

Sweet thatll do the job! Thanks!

By the way I bought a core and a hard drive when I was desperate for a 360.

Don't pay $30 for this @ Best Buy. Waaay overpriced.
Circuit City (http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Nyko-Multi-Reader-360-86027/sem/rpsm/oid/156966/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do) has it for $10

I picked one up a while back so I didn't have to plug my GH2 guitars and it works fine.

Actually, I heard that there's a built-in USB hub on the drums, although on the E3 Rock Band vid, it seems the mic does plug into the controller(Although I doubt that it does)

alot of usb hubs work w/ the 360 so worse case scenario you go to best buy and get 1 Oops some1 already suggested that my bad(didnt feel like reading)

If the USB hub is built into the drums, then all things should go swimmingly. I mean, think about it. Where are the guitarists? Beside the drummer. Where is the singer? Somewhear near the guitarist(s).

I think I can deal with it being that way, in fact, I hope it's that way.

Isn't only the guitar going to be wired?

We don't know for sure yet nothing has been confirmed it's all just guess work at the moment but i would think all the controllers would use the same method be it wireless or wired or maybe you can do both who knows.
