My wife gave me the Special Edition of Rock Band for Christmas. It's been a ton of fun for games and non-gamers. I think this game will appeal to a diverse group of people.
Problems with the game:
XBOX Live connectivity drops constantly. I have witnessed this happening at a friend's house. Now it is happening at my house. When this game is being played and multiple LIVE accounts are signed into the game, my connection to XBOX Live will drop.
The menus are hard to navigate. They look gorgeous. However, they aren't intuitive. There's even one warning that says "You won't be able to play the game if you continue". Really? That sounds pretty fatal.
EA showed up yesterday and we were like a superhero team together. I make a great sidekick! Gamerscore stands at 17,587. Up up and away right? He rocked out to Battlefield Bad Co. 2, and yeah... wow... my processor hurts...
