The NZA Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 We've got till November 20th to sort this out, at least here in the states. Mind you, the last 2 options arent as relevant: PS2's laregly offline, and Wii hasnt even officially been announced, plus their online's weak. PS3 and 360 should both see DLC, last ive heard; only difference so far is the 360 wont get the wireless guitar in the bundle, but you can buy it seperately for $20 more if you like. Shouldnt be too big a deal, really...pretend its plugged into an amp or some shit. Point is, this thread shows a lotta interest in the title. Which raises 2 points: 1) Miami locals - let's face it, if this goes down like it's looking to, this could very well be the big party/meetup title for a long time to come. At $200 for the bundle, or more if we just piecemeal the tools together, we should consider all chipping in, or sorting something out so we dont all buy the whole freakin' set if we can avoid it, yeah? 2) Non-locals: we want to play online with you guys. I dont know how exatly this works, but we coudl do online get-togethers and shit with this and have some fun, too. Just need to sort out a medium: i know more of you have 360's right now, and ill likely have one around the time of this game's release, just wanna see how many are interested and actually looking to join in from time to time, that's gonna affect my decision to buy in or not too, personally. Again, still curious how the multiplayer works: is there any chance we can have 3 locals play at like my place, and a 4th join in online? That'd be so awesome if we could, but still a lotta fun if everybody's at their place too, i figure. What's your call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 My call is: Here's to hoping I can play with you guys in one band. Funny how you guys have a release for November, my EB just gave me a vague '.. sometime next year?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Yeah, Oz is said to have it "first quarter 2008" so hopefully not too much later on. Any plans of coming to the dark side, or are you riding MS's dick sticking with 360 alone into 2008? Surely, arnah's got relatives with deep wedding-gift pockets. good to see you, by the way, man.

Jables Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Oh, my allegiance can be traded and bartered like 60G harddrives & Blu-ray. This week I find out if the last three months hoop-jumping nets me a 8k payrise and promotion wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiith :dugadugadugaduga: internet access at work again(a national account manager needs this y'see). With that, the last of the weeding can be payed off and Alana's pathological need to save can be put in a hessian sack and beaten like a naughty child. Preferably with wireles PS3 controls.

Jables Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 to once again quote the mecca of of gaming: 'Sometime next year?' I hope that helps. Nick- Hopefully soon. I get to refurbish the fortress of attitude next weekend for the first time since March, and if I get the thumbs-up not only do I anticipate the possibilty of spending at least parts of days goofing off here again, but maybe a newer better 'puter and home.

soldier of fortune Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Cos i have a wii and PS3, i'll more than likely go the PS3 route Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Nick, the online will feature both head-to-head and co-op play that can have multiple configurations (4 people in 4 different places, 3 difference places, 2 different places, and of course, all in the same place). Unlike Guitar Hero, instead of choosing a character, you design your character Sims style. You can also form an online band with a name and you can have a band logo which would appear on the bass drum and can be tattooed on characters. Obviously, Hondo's Bar is ripe in inside jokes ready to take form in band names and logos. Also, groups can use pick songs and jam, or go through the game together in a kind of story mode. PS Nick, the fact that you already have a game system that would be online for Rock Band is like the #2 or #3 reason I'm seeking you out as a roommate.

Newtype Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 The Wii sucks cock when it comes to online play. Plus you got the fucking friends code bullshit thing. 360 also sucks cock. I'm not even going to renew my account any time soon. I'm getting this on the PS3. No friends code or having to pay to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 Jax - those options/configurations might make the whole thing a sell for me if im hired in time, that's fucking awesome. also, i gotta respect a man that pushes for a roomate who's already comitted in one direction, largely on the basis of having a system that would cost you less than a day's pay. Methinks Vagrant had more of an affect than you think. :jew: << needs to be an emoticon. Newt - Really? youre the first to compain about XBL ive heard. i know its pay, but most seem happy with the network. no good? i really want it for PS3, but im only leaning towards 360 to make sure MH, Skeet & DoJ can be on board. But then, there's SOF too...argggh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Jax Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Remember Nick, I'll buy the game will all the instruments for our apartment if you move in. Free access to Rock Band. Plus, I will likely buy most if not all of the DLC, cause I'm like that. The deal is getting pretty sweet, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 ...and thereby trying to ensure your place to be the new Hondo's Central for parties, eh? quite the cunning linguist, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtype Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 The way I see it. If Bish and Gun do buy it odd are it will be for the 360 You an I will get it for the PS3. Everybody wins. Unless you own a Wii or a PS2 then your shit out of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 Yeah, damn achievement whores. I cant say that too loud, for fear ill join them one day. but nah, al, not everyone wins! that's the pont of the thread: first, i wanna see which hondonians are actually planning on getting this. if enough are getting it that arent locals, then that'll be a factor in me deciding. ideally, i want us all on a system where other hondonians can join in and play with us from their homes if we have a party going here, just to keep that option open if schedules match up. meaning, yeah, ill tend to grab it for PS3 as well, but if ray-ray, DoJ, Skeet, etc others are getting it & wanna play along, ill consider the 360 version. people can get whichever they like, sure, but i wanna at least have the option to have the other hondonians join in on our parties & such. Shit, i should call Bishop & gunsmithx about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NZA Posted September 30, 2007 Author Share Posted September 30, 2007 ok, so since gunsmithx went with PS3, and im thinking newt might as well, im almost tempted to opt for 360, just to keep others in the loop for get-togethers and online play, but i gotta know: SOF, DoJ, Skeeter, MH, Ly, etc, who here's realistically planning on getting this one, and wants to jam with us? i gotta make sure its worth it...

MetalHeart Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Oh fuck. for what, the $165 or thereabouts for the game, drums, mic, and a guitar? oh yeah. we're getting this. I was getting it anyways, but now it's fo sho! All I ask is that I get to sing some. I'm a sing whore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I'm all a-biz-out the RB baby. I'll be a little behind in terms of simple release, but even then I may just pony out the extra and just find a way to import it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted October 14, 2007 Author Share Posted October 14, 2007 lemme know if you do, sir - if MS gets their hardware sorted by then (read: falcon chip), again, im looking to join up, and looking to opt for this version to get moe hondonians in on the love.

The NZA Posted October 14, 2007 Author Share Posted October 14, 2007 if its modded, but if i do that, no XBL so i think that's counter-productive. why waste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
