Why is the image titled "Epic Fail" ? "Abyssmal Fail" is much more correct.

Not to mention that they'll just slap a € in for the $. Seriously, is shipping that expensive ?

O, and when will Nintendo finaly introduce uncensored online ? Maybe they could just do an account system where the chatting is disabled for your pedophile victim to be brother / sister.

It depends when my dad will get the PS3.

If he gets the PS3 before Rock Band Wii comes out, I'll get it for PS3, if it's just a little while after Rock Band Wii comes out, maybe a month or 2, I'll still get PS3.

If it's not for a while, I'll give in to the Wii version.

THE WII VERSION BETTER HAVE STILL ALIVE ON THERE OR GET DLC SOON OR I'LL SCREAM.

Plus they said they might add online and they said the same with Rock Band.

I rather get it on my xbox 360. Wii isn't meant for this.

What do you mean by that?

I would say that the Wii WAS meant for games like Rock Band. Games that involve the whole family, that everyone can play... that is Nintendo's whole push for the Wii. A ryhtym game doesnt need HD, and online would work fine (as proven by Guitar Hero), and they could have done some cool stuff with the Wii Remotes.

Have they ? No. Why ?

Because like a lot of publishers, they see the Wii as an opportunity to milk money out of the mythical golden "Casual gamer" community, which, by the way, DOESN'T EXIST.


I walked past the video game shelves in Real, a local shopping mall chain, a week ago. The video games there were:



I mean, how retarded does the video game industry think we are ? We aren't satisfiable by using some primary-colored Disney ripoff or even original Disney and slapping Quick Time Events, Dorky Camera and a bad excuse for combat on it in order to milk Mom of $ 50 to shut the kids up.

Wait... I think I begin to understand why people use video games as a scapegoat for all their problems these days.

Anyway, I'm getting depressed. 90 % of these games are crap. I mean, come on ! Even Tingles Rosy Rupeeland looks like damn [Insert your favorite game of all time here] next to the lot of them.

EDIT:

A) Sorry for the pagestretch.

B) For people further interested in the Myth of Casual Gaming, here an excellent Destructoid article. Read it. Right now. Please. http://www.destructoid.com/the-myth-of-casual-gaming-72689.phtml

I HOPE to be getting Rock Band for the 360 sometime soon, but even if I don't, I doubt I'll ever get the Wii version.

Since they haven't even released Still Alive for the 360 and PS3 versions, I doubt the Wii version will have it. Also, since it seems like this is just gonna be a port of the PS2 version, I doubt they'll add online play (since they're so lazy).

i am extremely disappointed that it wont have dlc or even online play
but i actually thing not using the wiimote is a good choice because anybody that has only one wiimote and wants to play rock band with their friends they don't have to buy anymore
if they only have one wiimote they would have to pay the 169.99 for rock band and an additional 90.00 for three wiimotes i think going without the wiimote is a good choice
