Well, it's Rock Band release day, and I just found out I've gotta make an extra rent payment due to an accounting error. This means I can't afford the Rock Band bundle until probably January or February next year, so I'm thinking of buying the standalone game to make due with just guitar/bass/vocals. My questions are these:
1) Is the Xbox 360 headset compatible with the game? If so, has anyone actually tried it? How well does it work? Is it possible to plug it into one of the Guitar Hero controllers if I want to play guitar and sing or is a seperate, normal controller required?
2) I know both versions of 360 Guitar Hero controllers are supposed to work with the game, but once again, does anyone have any experience with this? I've heard of some problems from people trying to get it to work.
3) How is Band World Tour mode without the full four players? Would the lack of a drummer remove gameplay elements or can I enjoyably play with friends and let the game do the drumming for me until I can afford a bundle/seperate drums?
4) I know they've been announced, but when will seperate peripherals come out, and what is their estimated cost? I know I'll need the drums as soon as possible, and I'll probably upgrade the rest of my gear to full Rock Band specs when I get the money.
Thanks for your help! I'd really like to experience at least 3/4ths of this game on launch, even if it means paying a little extra later! Hope you lucky launch guys are enjoying the game, and if my existing peripherals work out maybe I'll see y'all online soon :)
