The band never sleeps

Comes with picture instructions and very easy to set up. Took some time and was a little difficult to calibrate (synchronizing the audio and visuals) initially on our home LCD tv. However, when taken over to other people's houses, there was no need to calibrate. Overall, gameplay remains consistent. But the microphone seems to be desensitive sometimes. Very entertaining and will keep you busy for hours.

A lot better gaming choice for the family

We own guitar Hero and Rockband. This is a lot better choice for the family for 2 major reasons. First, the graphics on Guitar Hero are terrible. They are not appropriate for kids. Second, on Rock Band lets you play longer before you get booed off, giving the smaller kids more of a chance to figure the game out. Beyond these two major things it is just a lot of fun for everyone, with several features that we enjoy!

I am Amazed!

I bought this from the Amazon place for slightly damaged items, and so I was expecting something wrong, but there wasn't. The only thing wrong was that a corner was smushed in a bit, which literally affected nothing because everything was so securely packaged, if anyone is wondering whether everything will be fine, YES! they even put everything in an extra box to ensure nothing happened. I highly reccomend this item (Rock Band) and this seller, because you cannot beat the price. I saved $50.00.
