Why does L: RB Not Have Online

[DustinR]

why the people dont investigate before purchase a game..

im happy that L:RB doesnt have online. if you wanna play online, then export the songs and play on rb2.

How can you be "happy" that the game doesn't have online play?

Anyways, even with the lack of Online play I think I got my moneys worth with this game. Picked it up at Target yesterday for $29.99

Alright so I got LEGO Rock Band for christmas and of course the first thing I do is rip it open and start playing it, well then my friend Frank on XBL wanted to play the game with me, up until this moment we assumed that L:RB was just like all the other RB's, assuming it has online multiplayer for quickplay and story, but appearantly it doesn't, and just finding that fact out honestly made the game immediately not worth the 50$ I paid for it, is anyone else annoyed by this? or are there any plans for a possible online multiplayer update? otherwise honestly, I would have never gotten the game if I knew from the start there was no online function.

BEcause of people like me who use the f word as an article and tell everyone they play with on XBL that satan is just a misunderstood guy and that the real bad guy is jeebus. Oh and that I slept with their parents.

i didnt know it didnt have online either, you buy the game then they want you to pay another £10 to export them to RB2 to play online.

Anyway im having fun playing it single player, great fun game.

Perhaps he really dislikes the online feature in RB2.

Or maybe he's a parent who doesn't want his kid(s) playing online with random strangers and hearing who knows what coming through the headset and/or tv speakers.

This may surprise you, but some (many?) people on these forums are adults with disposable incomes who may or may not decide to buy something for themselves at certain festive moments of their choosing.
For such adults the sentence "I got something for Festivus" has the same general meaning as "I got something for the flight home", and does not necessarily imply it being a gift.

Having said that, this could just as easily be another 13-year old with a petty grievance using the "I paids good moniez" line to draw extra sympathy (ha! sympathy on the RB forums! that'll be the day )
