Hi,
Given that the xbox 360 was an xmas present for our oldest son he has now retreated to his room with said console to continue his love of online games such as COD, Rainbow 6 etc.!!!

This leaves us with with a 360 RB kit (drums, guitar & mic) in the lounge gathering dust much to our youngest sons consternation! We urgently need a remedy to this dilemma so we want know if the 360 RB kit is:

a.) compatible with the Wii (which we already have) or
b.) compatible with the PS3 (which, if pushed, we are willing to purchase) or
c.) is a dead loss unless we purchase a 2nd xbox!!!

Obviously option a.) would be easiest but if not and provided there is any future in the PS3 console option b.) is possible. Option c.) is possible as we know the xbox is a good allrounder but if we had to buy a console the PS3 might win as it is the only console we dont have.

Confused? So are we! Either way we must have RockBand as it is excellent family entertainment. If we have to buy a new RB we will but what a waste of existing kit!!!

Any help - much appreciated

p.s. we are UK RB fans

Sorry, it's a dead loss. Even though they're USB, the instruments are not compatible between platforms, except for PS2/PS3.

I take it it was in the living room for awhile, long enough for you to buy Rock Band for it, and then he decided to move it to his room? That's too bad.
