The European market is scheduled to get the game in some form within the first quarter of EA's financial year, which translates to an April to June 2008 time frame.

April at the earliest, and it's never the earliest in Europe, is it??

Wii... yes!

Wonder how much it will be....

Just so people know I'm editing the thread title to say Rock Band.

This sucks, it's ages away now. Damn the temptation to import a PS3 version is killing me!

Yes, in retrospect, that's quite a good idea!

With regard to the PS3 thing, hold out for the Achievement featured 360 version!!! And xbla multiplayer!!

It's the co-op play for the Xbox thats making me wait. Me and a pal are gonna go through it. Hopefully they'll get that patch for online World Tour before the euro release.

I saw a sign in Game today saying it was coming out on March 14th. I'd be okay with that! But the lack of online confirmation makes me sceptical!

I'm sorry to disappoint everyone but i read this on maxconsole:

Looks like we might get it in 2009!! People really care about us european gamers.

Mr E · 02-02-2008 06:38PM

That doesn't make sense. Rock Band 2 will probably be out in America by then (assuming it follows EA's usual annual update release strategy)

brianon · 26-02-2008 04:53PM

Can someone clear this up for me

If I imported RB. Can I access the DLC ?

I would imagine I would need a US account ?

Mr E · 26-02-2008 05:42PM

Don't know brianon, but just so you know - only the PS3 version is region free, and postage costs will be a b**ch....

Smellyirishman · 28-02-2008 12:35PM

Yeah, you can only import the PS3 version (Unless you have an American 360) and you can setup your credit card with a company such as www.entropay.com in order to get the DLC.

As an aside, hopefully we will get more details before/at www.play.com/live.

I know someone who picked this up in the U.S

Its so awesome, we had no bass guitar but it was still so much fun! It blows Guitar Hero out of the water completely. Cannot wait til this gets released over here...

BlackMirror · 09-03-2008 08:35AM

I'm in America and I played it at a Christmas party this last year. I can't believe they have kept it from you this long. That's just plain rotten. My apologies for all the Americans who can't get their @#$% together.

danbhala · 01-04-2008 09:22AM

any news on this?

is it coming in april?

can you put down pre orders yet?

slimbun · 01-04-2008 02:03PM

May is looking like the month we might finally see it, I've already imported the PS3 version which I would have recommended any other PS3 owners to do, but it seems like a waste of money at this stage.

ShawnRaven · 01-04-2008 05:28PM

Between this and GTA IV, as much luck as i have had with concerts this year, i've had the worst luck with games that i've looked forward to being delayed! I'm at the point where i couldn't give a f*ck about Rock Band anymore. As much as the yanks are praising it. Dragging a release out too long can just put people off. I'll probably only get the standalone version of it anyway just for the guitar parts.

VR!
