    Haha, it's not so much the band as it is the fact that it seems a step backwards from B:RB.

    This game would be fun I think if not for the wonky guitar i have to use here until I get back to my own place. Buttons that randomly dont work are not so much fun :mad:

    Edit: the GS cut off's for bass seem to be even harder than the beatles, from my sums it's impossible to get 5GS on some of the bass songs I played solo

    And the cymbal noise when the drummer uses overdrive is kind of annoying but also draws you attention to it so you use yours too, kind of a + and - for me there.

    After a few hours of it on a now dead guitar , the setlist really is starting to be a problem for me, I'm finding that dookie is just no fun at all on guitar even though I love the songs I might change my mind on that when I drum and sing it. Not to play the old vs new greenday card but it really could have done with more nimrod if anything as it was one of the more varied of the earlier albums.

    The fact there is only 3 venues means you are looking at the same thing over and over really and they are all kind of dark.

    I bought GreenDay RB the other night only to remember my instruments are all Guitar Hero. :rolleyes:

    Anyone know where I can get the cheapest instrument sets? (ps3) My local smyths had them for €50 but sold out (liffey valley). Beatles or regular set is fine.

    No didnt try because I figured the drums are different? And from previous experience RB 1 wouldnt accept the instruments. But I'll try this evening, thanks.

    I want to buy this, but I think I'll wait til it comes down in price a bit (hopefully Game will have it as one of their 'offers of the week' soon). I like Green Day for nostalgic reasons, and want to start getting RB practice again before part 3 roles around, so seems like a good way to get some nostalgic practice!
