hi, sorry if these questions are asked a lot, i checked around a bit and didn't find any answers so whatever.

anyways, im planning on importing the 360 version of Rock band (game only) from the UK and would appreciate some answers to these questions -

first of, is the game region free?

would my PAL 360 guitar hero controllers work with an NTSC copy of the game?

would i be able to buy the downloadable content using my UK LIVE account?

i think that about covers it,

cheers.

1) We don't know if it will be region free. I heard it will not, but it seems more likely that it will be region free, after seeing that almost every good Xbox 360 game coming out is region free. (e.g. Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, Naruto, Guitar Hero 3, Jericho, PGR4, Call of Duty 4 etc.)

I actually hope that maybe someone who has already the game (some people here seem to had that much luck) knows the answer?

2) I'm pretty sure the controllers work.

3) That hasn't been anounced either, but I'm pretty sure that they will not release the DLC outside of the US so far. So, no, you probably can't download the DLC with your UK account. You may create an US Account and use Prepaid Cards, that might work. But you need to wait and see if the game is region free anyway.
Oh, and besides, HMX said there will be different DLC in Europe, so... :(

There is a chance that you will be able to get the DLC, considering that we have had the GH3 DLC available to buy for awhile now and the game isn't released here in the UK for another week or so.

Who knows?
