Rock Band at Best Buy Eagan

Sammy and I play the game in this video.  Pretty boring to watch as we’re not too emotional but it’s pretty fun.  I don’t like the design of the ‘bars’ to play with as the ‘circles’ that are used in Guitar Hero seem bigger and more friendly.  I found myself really trying to time it more with the bars because they are so small.  As for the drums, they are a lot of fun.  I don’t like the noise they make when you hit them.  I think it could have been a little less noisy.  Nobody was willing to sing for us.  We had a little crowd of BBY employees watching us suck it up 🙂

A mini review of the hardware.  The neck is pretty flimsy.  I don’t know what caused it but there was vibration in the guitar at one point.  There is a switch on the guitar which switches modes on the “whammy bar”.  It looks nicer than the GH guitars but I like the build of my GH3 better than this one.  The strumming switch has no click to it, it’s very smooth.  We both liked the thought of it before we played but after playing we agree that we didn’t like the feel.
