I used to play this game when I was a little bit younger. I was excited to find it brand new. It came early also. We have also played it for hours on end. Great game for family time

I didn't have problems with setting up the game or the instruments. However, the drums were missing the rods for the cymbals and one of the cymbals (orange or right one) was heavily damaged that the wire snapped after I plugged it in to see if it worked. It was pretty unfortunate, seeing as how it was pricey and an xmas gift.

If you liked the original Rock Band, then you should be happy with Rock Band 2. It supports guitar, bass, vocals, and drums. The Special Edition comes with wireless guitar, microphone, and wireless drums. The equipment seems to be of higher quality than those that were available for the original Rock Band. The wireless drumset needs the AA batteries replaced a bit more frequent than I would like, but the fact that it is wireless allows for more freedom, so it's a worthwhile payoff. The organization of the tour feature is a bit confusing compared to the Guitar Heroes of old. Rock Band incorporates traveling to cities with different mini-concerts, hiring staff, and buying equipment. If you don't workout a strategy to help your band progress, you may find yourself playing some of the same songs repeatedly. However, if you just want to play songs for fun, you can do so without the touring. Overall, if you like Guitar Hero and the original Rock Band you should really enjoy this one. If you are new to the guitar simulation games, this one is a little confusing at first, but with some time you will still enjoy it.Read full review
I wasn't sure what to expect with this game as I am the type of guy who usually sticks with a certain type of game, mainly sports titles i.e. Madden NFL, NCAA Football etc. however when I saw this item for a very low price, I decided to take a shot and I am very glad I did, I have had so much fun playing this game with my 7 year old son (me on guitar, he does the drums), then you add in the fact you can download new song tracks for a reasonable cost (160 microsoft points each) that only adds to the fun and extended playability of the game, I also very much enjoy the fact you can customize the look of your band members, various hairstyles, clothing options provide another fun aspect to the game and helps to further engage the user making the game experience more personalized. granted I have only been able to play the game on the easy level, and at times it is a bit too easy, and the difficulty difference between easy and medium sometimes seems overwhelming I have recently tried a few songs on the medium difficulty and have noticed my skills have improved somewhat, this adds another dimension to the game as you play more and more you can try to move up skill levels and you will be suprised to see that you are actually "learning something" while playing a game. I highly recommend this game, it would surely provide hours and hours of fun and entertainment. I was lucky enough to score a great deal on mine, but after playing it and seeing how much fun it exudes I would have gladly paid 5X what I paid.Read full review
Got it a few weeks ago and like the fact it came with 2 guitars. It makes it so that one of us can play base while the other can play lead. the graphics are good and the set up makes it easy to follow along with the songs. We like the ability to download a variety of songs and add to the experience. This is good for anyone. It challenges the avid gamer but also allows for the inexperienced player to catch on fairly quickly. We would recommend this for anyone who enjoys music and wants to do more than just be a spectator. It's quite the experience! This expands on the original rock band and gives more choices in songs and in the gaming experiences. It would be great to gave 2 mikes or to have echo features.Great otherwise.We give it a Thumbs up!
