    I'm looking to buy the Band Hero bundle with drums, guitar, mic to use with Guitar Hero Metallica. Anyone know the best place to get a good price on this?

    The game is rubbish mate, and for once im not bashing Guitar hero for the sake of it I actually liked Guitar hero 5, I'd suggest that bundle over band hero it's the same instruments and a better game.

    Other option is Rock Band instruments in smyths for €49 euro if they still have them on sale for that , no game though they are 100% compatible with Guitar/Bnad hero, Look at the sticky in the forum for details.

    If you have never played rock band games I seriously suggest you try Rock Band 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (sorry i had to get that in there ;) )

    I just want the instruments, game will be straight on ebay. Not sure, but I don't think Guitar Hero 5 has a complete band bundle.

    hmmmmm looks like you're right on that from what I could see, and the band hero set is from 170-200 most places :eek:

    Like I said though worth checking smyths for the rock band intruments and see if they are still cheap

    Edit looks like they are http://www.toys.ie/Band-in-a-Box-PS3-X360--PS2-!F00066-prod.aspx?qwSessionID=ebcbf133-a68b-4274-8358-ca89d9bbfda2

    I'm using these myself.

    Yeah, lool. It's not usually like me not to do the research on the product before I buy it, but 70 euro for drums/guitar/microphone sounded cheap so I just bought it straight off.

    Would it not be cheaper to pick up the World Tour band set over Band Hero?
    (phrased as a question because I don't know if it is...)

    If you can live without the drums and you're shackled to a dying albatross of a console like me, I have a spare GH:WT mic and GH3 wiitar :)
