    I've been looking at buying rock band, smyths in naas are selling it for 170 euro.
    Anyone know if there are any better prices for it?

    I'd hold fire on getting it. Rockband 2 the game is out at the moment minus the drum kit, guitars etc. I'd wait until the better equipment is out and get it as a bundle with the game. The drum kit on Rock Band 1 is pretty weak, I didn't find the guitar to good either. €170.00 is an ok price I guess.

    €170 is the cheapest I've seen it (no Smyths employee biased nature here!), I prefered Guitar Hero World Tour though, I know it's taken a bashing since release but the drums are better and of course there is the Guitar Hero track library which is quite expansive and getting better. Though Rock Band 2 could change all this! :D

    Are the RB2 instruments meant to be better than the GHWT ones? They work for both games don't they? I was thinking of getting GHWT for £125 from HMV and picking up RB1&2 later on.

    General belief/opinion is that RB2 rights the wrongs of RB. Not sure about the cross compatability though....

    Hey I saw the full package of Rock band for 80 in Zavvi a couple of weeks back in Cork :) Would have bought it had I the money! :(
    Anyways, I'm not sure bout the rest of the country, or indeed, if Zavvi is closed down yet.... Its quite a drawn out death methinks...
