Rock Band 3 Will Have Pro Modes and Real Guitars

Think he means that he really wants to do the pro-guitar stuff, and they keyboard'll need to be gotten at some point, just to complete the set. Perhaps the guitar pro mode will work in the same way some other game works, where it listens to the note you played, I can't remember what it was called, but it had tabs in it, and could tell when you played the right thing on a real guitar, and you could plug any guitar you wanted in.superbatranger said:
The first will be done; you can already buy cymbals (but they have to be added to the RB2 drum kit, not the RB1 kit).Plinglebob said:
Plugging a real guitar in would be badass. My Firebird can never see enough action! Although at the moment, it's wishful thinking at its finest.
You'd have to be a real fucking pro on guitar though, to be able to play notes as they come towards you with trauma inducing velocity. And I want to play my own solos.. Can we have that?

That's actually much better than my original question, well played Wardnath, well played.Wardnath said:
Oh, I get it now. Well, you could get the keyboard and the pro-guitars at a later time.Riobux said:
From what I saw on another site, the keyboard is gonna run $79.99 USD standalone or $129.99 bundled with RB3, and the Madcatz Mustang ( the fake pro guitar with 100+ buttons and 6 strumming strings instead of full strings) will cost $149.99 alone. The REAL guitar hasn't been priced yet... But will probably cost more, since it is a REAL guitar with sensors under the fretboard.Riobux said:
Also, if you already own a MIDI Keyboard or drumset (maybe guitar too, idk) you can buy an adapter to let you use those in RB3 for $39.99 USD.
Damn, this game is gonna hurt my wallet...

Wow, those are REALLY nasty prices. I think I'd be okay with the keyboard up to £60, because it is pretty awesome. However, I don't think I'll be paying over £100 for a guitar. It's just unreasonable. Especially since I already own a real guitar anyway, but need to buy another one just so I can play the pro option thing.lotr rocks 0 said:
For those complaining that the realism is too much, you guys are aware that the Pro-mode isn't the whole of the game? RB 3's still going to have the Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert normal mode's as well for those who don't want to learn to play an instrument and enjoy their 5 buttony goodness. This way those who don't want to drop buttloads of money on the new controllers can still jam on last years Strat's and Hofners.
All the edutainment of Rise of the Six String, all the awesome of the traditional RB. It's a Win-Win for all us music gamers.
