Beatles Pre-Order Club is Live! First controller pics?

[Sayburr]

LOL, you changed your mind quick. Learn some self-control, old man!

Yeah, I can't help it.

I'm contemplating getting the game as well.
Just the game though...I've no more room for other plastic instruments. <.<

Although...they do look tasty. 8D

Harrison's Gretsch Duo Jet Peripheral

Nice. Dang it, I don't need a 7th plastic guitar.

So basically $350 to buy the whole shootin' match....

Wrong.

Bundle - $250.00
Lennon Rickenbacker - $99.099
Harrison Gretsch - $99.99

Total Price = $449.98

Of course if we assume that the alleged 3-part harmony is TRUE, than you'd need 2 other Microphones and microphone stands, say another $80.00 bucks for good ones.

well i just called GameStop. It sounds like they aren't planning on sending out pre-order codes until a month before release... they are either oblivious to what's going on with the pre-order club, or don't care.

Here's the announcement:

1. The Beatles: Rock Band Pre-Order Club in Europe is slated to go live later this month. Consumers should check with their local EU retailers with regards to exact launch dates.
2. If you have already preordered The Beatles: Rock Band, you will still be given a code to join beginning on May 5 or any time before game launch.

They can't put those already prepared PR details in the original email?! They can't get the web site link and codes working before sending the email and issuing the PR?!

Ah well at least someone's remembered Europe. Got my amazon.co.uk preorder in (for just the game, no hardware on there yet) to cancel later probably. That's the price for both guitars then? If this game really supports all 3 guitars, drums and the multiple vocal parts simultaneously (you know, like The Beatles instead of like Rock Band) then that's amazing and I wish I had a spare [s]£340[/s]£430?! and 3 friends.

they look good.

Aaaaaawesome

Actually, I don't think so. While the wording is ambiguous, I think the two standalone guitars will be $100 each. I initially thought that was too expensive and that it might be a 2-guitar set, but given the cost of the bundle ($250 for bass, drums, mic and game), it seems unlikely that you would be able to buy two guitars for effectively $50 each, especially given the painstaking detail in those guitars.

But this does mean, thankfully, that those who don't want two more guitar controllers can choose to get just one... Now if only we can choose, if we don't want both, that is.

Hmm it does read a bit ambiguously... I assumed if g+d+m+ms was $250 then 2xg for $100 would be about right?

And two lips mics would do. Or your existing Rb1/RB2/othergame mic(s). And stands are pretty cheap.
