Nice work everyone! Hoping I can grab some new tracks!!

I'll take the Squire please!

owning both consoles I'd have to go with Kinect on that one. Afterall it is "air" guitar

ah.. that would be pretty damn cool though. Kinect seemed to sell well over Black Friday and I think it has alot under its hood for future use. We'll see..

certainly it can incorporate the mic technology into it. Standing in front of Kinect singing into the mic or maybe just for backgrounds, also optional (jump/raise hand/head bob) to activate star...

wasn't really intended to. Just to show how someone can fiddle around and get it to work. Certainly "trained professionals" could do something much more indepth.

sorry didn't realize you already posted this

half n half

absolutely but not as much as spending 1,000's on guitars and studio equipment ;)

kinda off topic question.. Can you use the mics on Kinect for vocals/harmonies? now or maybe in the future with a patch?

your right...I haven't yet (I can see it under the tree!).. but if you haven't seen all the hacks going on youtube right now... you might realize Kinect is just in its beginning stages, so much...

lol... well with that said why do I spend 100's of dollars for a game like Rock Band when I can play most of these songs for real on a guitar? :P

You pay for alot of things you can do for free,...

ok... This could be possible... and could work and be quite fun. EVERYONE knows how to air guitar already! This could even be an XBLA release.

800 MS points!!!
thoughts?

whatever the sale outcome is (Im going with MS or EA on this one) I don't see Activision throwing in the GH towel. Ever. Even if they acquire Harmonix. The franchise has generated over a billion...

I was under the impression MS helped with the RB store and helped with RB2 itself is why they got the 4 week window

Did anyone watch Inside Xbox when they asked Harmonix about this and they said, "we're working on integrating new RB3 features into old DLC"?

I enjoy metal as much as the next fan but many RB players in general don't like it. Especially vocalists.

^^ I beg to differ.

I'd never seen it before. sorry i guess
