I'd go to a different store, but hey at least it wasn't opened. Or missing the game, some people getting Guitar Hero 3 opened it up and they didn't have the game in it, just the guitar.

Well for me anyway i live in a very small town in Washington and Wal-Mart is my only choice as of now. There is a gamestop being built as i speak so that will help but not at the present it won't. I could drive 2 hours to Wenatchee and get it but thats bull to have to do that

So I got home last night, and tried to play around with Rock Band. The Drum Kit was too loud to play, as I didn't want to wake my neighbors, and for the life of me I couldn't get the microphone to register. I tried the guitar part of the game, and it was fun, but nowhere near as complex as GH III. I think the song selection favors the entire band experience, not just fancy fretwork like GH III. It looks like the Rock Band controllers are not at all compatible with GH III, though, so if I want to play that, I need to just get that game with guitars. The GH III guitar (for 360 anyway) seems compatible though with Rock Band, so I may get that to use as a Bass, but it doesn't have the same effects switch on it.

Aaaarggh, this is confusing and crappy that super expensive games are incompatible with each others hardware.

This is exactly what I expected to happen with these two games and it is a shame. I may still pick up Rock Band but I think I will get it off ebay in a few weeks when someone gets sick of it.
