Sniper_X says that Rock Band 2 had turned up to where he works.

I so know what im doing tonight.
Release date was today as well so i find it strange there wasnt more of a push in the advertising of this.
I didnt even know it was coming out i had just heard the occasional rumour through work that there will be a rock band release in December and then Lego RB came out.
Although in saying that theres no sign of the instruments. |

I don't know if he's from New Zealand, I just assumed really.
This could mean an Australian release soon then, IIRC, RB1 was released in New Zealand a week before Australia. _________________

Apparently it's exclusive to JB Hifi for a while, damn EA and their shit Distributing Abillities. (or should I say, retardness) _________________

Yay, nearly a whole year since I imported Rock Band 2, it gets a glimpse of an official Australian release!
Smiles all around... Or something. EA, I still haven't forgiven you for this mess. Seriously. _________________

| Well it's being released here in Australia on October 21st! So NZ should be around the same time I guess. |

Why did you dig up a 10 month old thread talking about Rock Band 2 to mention the release date for Rock Band 3? _________________

Heh. Anyway yeah Rock Band 3 is due to be released, but it looks like the distributors are keeping the the bar low as usual as to what we will be getting. We may be getting the keyboard, and that's it so far.
Of course no advertising or anything. |

We're getting the mustang pro guitar, new drums and midi adapter, too. The instruments are exclusive to EB and you HAVE to pre-order, apparently.
