Yeah, so I did get my copy on tuesday, and just now have physically recovered from getting it home. Now all of you probably got the game home in relative short order, but I had a few kinks.

I got to toys r us early on, like say 9:00am when they opened, and it wasn't in yet! So I hung around and played GHIII for a while, then got the thing. I got outside, and realized that my dad had driven off to work. So, naturally I decide that it's a great idea to --Walk-- the thing back to my house.

So, unless you need exercise, do NOT carry a 40lb+ box of rock 3.5 miles on foot. Not a good idea.

Got back home, and couldn't find my 360. Come to find out that I left it on my bed back home in Springfield (Visiting parents in St. Louis), and don't have it here.

Yeah, totally useless, but figured I'd share the fact that I'm a little pissed at myself, not rock band. XD

Sorry to hear that. Think one of your buddies could come by with his 360 so you two could rock out?

Would YOU take a bus or Taxi if you had Rock Band in your hand? Think of the possibilities:confused:
