    If RB4 came out for Orbis/720/wii U...

    Here are a few things I'd like to see:

    - total library integration, including new DLC, old DLC, exports AND Beatles! (Plain and simple, if you make the Beatles exportable, you will go gold, maybe platinum within 12 months. Yes, I've heard it'll never happen, but it's still a valid suggestion to throw into Sir McCartney's inbox. I'll pay $19.99 for an export, as will others who shell out $50+ for COD each year, easy.

    -proving the renewed and continued worth of the franchise (the community is airtight) to the record labels would be awesome: ie. tell Swan Song that they'll make a crap-load off of DLC and hungry Zep fans like Green Day did...see what happens.

    - more hip-hop and pop to entice people who buy RB simply for it's ground-breaking vocals mode (far superior to the SD flakiness of SingStar). I don't care about the hip-hop-haters: the Snoop Dogg and Gorillaz tracks are popular and fun on karaoke, plus the newly remixed band parts make the old Snoop tracks feel fresh. Jungle Boogie by KATG was a blast too!

    - magically bring back Hier Kommt Alex, Rock N Roll Superstar, Paranoid and Enter Sandman; all will rejoice in the nostalgia; lol

    - actual " Lossless Audio/Hd Jukebox" option in the menus, so you can just kick back, relax and chill to HD master recordings on Blu-ray speakers without playing, failing, turing off sound effects, etc. etc.

    - Harmonix needs to prove to the public why the pro modes (which were REALLY lacking in marketing; few people I know outside this community know RB3 actually came out, despite it representing the perfection of the rhythm genre craze; too bad, but fixable.

    RB3 is definitely competitive to Rocksmith, the latter of which is beginning to amass a cult following, with its recent port to PC. However: the RB interface is copied, familiar and intuitive. I absolutely love the Pro Keys tutorial, and the ability to learn hundreds of new songs on piano. It's easy, plain-speak.

    I know there are trollers out there who will immediately pounce all over the seemingly impossibly references to Zep, Beatles, etc...but I respond: The World is Yours, mang.

    We need more:

    Cake

    Totally agree! Also, the animations should be more like RB2 where the characters are more lively and full of energy.

    Also [to add a few suggestions], we need an online mode where we can have more than 4 players. (Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keys, and Vocals all at the same time to be more specific, possibly even three different players for three different harmonies, but I can see where that idea could go wrong.) And, not to sound snobby or anything, let's go back to where we can't have more than one of the same song in a setlist, please...

    How many people would pay $80 to play the Beatles songs they already have, only in a game with no Beatles avatars or venues and no dreamscapes?

    They need to bring back those RB2 songs too. Jukebox = vocals + no-fail + un-plugged mic.

    You forgot to mention that they need to bring back score duel. A FB score duel would be cool too. And need to be able to really be a FB online, AKA guitar, bass and keys in the same session.

    the main thing they need is better/more marketing. you'd be surprised how many people never knew there was RB3 (or any RB really, all those people heard about was "that other game")
    my love is like a candle, if you forget me, i will burn your damn house down.

    There was virtually nothing in the UK. I saw a one page spread in OXM 3 days before it's release. Had I not been a massive fan of the series, it may have been months before I would have picked it up.

    On a side note, I'm all for it. The only thing I'd want, aside from a fun game to play is backwards compatibility with the instruments. I don't wanna pay out for another band kit when I already have one.
    SillyStou: What will happen to this place when Rock Band ceases to exist?
    RockBandRocker: We will all migrate to the Dance Central forums. It will be like Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt.
    Munnchy: Only Flashier, with impeccable dance moves.
    RockBandRocker: With more glitter and glam. We will survive
