    I took a drastic step to get my friend in the game.

    Some of you might know that I've been trying to get my best friend (also my guitarist) interested in Rock Band 3 for years now.

    His family console of choice is the Wii (yeah, I know) and for his kid's birthday this year I just ordered the Mustang pro controller and the keyboard bundle for the Wii.

    I figure now he sort of HAS to check it out.

    I know, I'm evil.

    It's certainly addicting... once you start you just don't wanna stop... At least that's the way it is in this house.. 8 of us here and we all play (11 yrs - 45 yrs of age) Family game night is Rock Band... every Friday and most Saturdays.
    AWK!! AWK!!

    Now you just have to hope he plays it and doesn't just go "uh... thanks..." and puts it in a closet.

    Well, that's the genius of gifting it to his kids. (they're sharing a birthday party this weekend). He can't do that! Bwahaha.

    EDIT: Although he can still choose to ignore it while his kids play, but that might still be hard for him to do. Let's hope.

    Yeah, even if I had the money for that my wife would kill me. She almost killed me for getting his kids the present described in this topic.

    i hate to break it to you, but if he's as experienced a guitarist as you've described, i don't think he'll be too impressed by the mustang. if he thinks the 5-button guitar is just a plastic toy, the mustang will seem like just another small plastic toy with a lot more buttons. there's no real comparison between the mustang and even something like the RB squier, let alone the much nicer and more expensive guitars he's probably used to playing, to someone who already plays guitar.

    you'd probably have more luck getting him into rocksmith, though i don't know that that helps you out much. but maybe if he enjoys rocksmith, that breaks through the "video game" mental barrier, and then he'd be more open to trying rock band.
