Rock Band: EU Gets official (CRAZY) price and release date….
Lets get down to business, Firstly It will be available on Xbox 360 On may 23rd but gamers hoping to rock out on their PS3’s and Wii’s will have to wait till around summer time…
The initial price will be £130.00 for the instrument bundle which is a little damn pricey as it is but it doesn’t even include the Freaking game, Gamers will have to shell out another £50 quid on top of that just for the game…In my opinion this is bloody ridiculous i mean i could buy an actual guitar and a cheap amp for that price or maybe even an Xbox 360 or a Wii and still have money left over to buy a sandwich…I didn’t know i had to be an actual rock-star to afford this god damn game…
Firstly we have to wait several months for the game to be released over here but then we have to pay a price that is practically double what the Americans have paid, I HATE YOU EA!!!!
Final Say: Import the whole bundle from the US, You will save a lot of money and get it much sooner…

That indeed sucks major balls. For that kind of money you could buy a couple of bloody instruments! I’ll stick with Frets on Fire thanks.

As an addition, the guitars separate are £60, and the drum kits are £70 each.
And just to clarify, you can only import the instruments (unless you have a PS3). The Region protection bars PAL consoles from playing it. As is covered by Play-Asia:

Get the instrument bundle abroad, buy the game here.
But what makes it worse, is if you look around, there’s an interview somewhere that addresses this issue with EA. They hide behind taxes.

@ Daniel: Get the Wired guitar for the 360 with GH3, and you can use it for Frets on Fire as well. : D
