Rock Band Wii is like reheated leftovers of Rock Band for PS3 and 360. If you own a PS3 or 360 in addition to a Wii, there is no reason to get the Wii version. Although the casual market will eat up Rock Band Wii, no doubt about that.

i had never played a music game before but when i took guitar hero 3:legends of rock i loved them.so i was thinking to get rock band.i changed my mind when i heard about it's price.iam from europe and the price of the game is very high in my opinion even if it has all these instruments.i can not understand how euro is higher than dollar and we get everything like dollars are the same with euro and a lot times even higher from that.prices in europe and australia are a big issue in my opinion and all companies must do something.i know that there are many issues but they must try to improve them and iam sure that they will see a lot more people to videogames when they do it..

No DLC= No.

Lame. I cannot believe that Nintendo and Harmonix can't offer DLC on the Wii. HDD be damned, that music doesn't take that much memory.

I would have bought it in a heartbeat but without DLC it's not real appealing.

30% of the game missing should mean 30% of the price missing as well. If it isn't, then likely I won't make a purchase.

EXACTLY! EX-ACT-LY!

I am not paying full price for a half-assed game.

No. I'm sick of them dumbing down multiplatform titles for the Wii. They shouldn't be able to get away with it so I refuse to be part of the problem.

You know, All I wanted Rock Band for was a cheap way to try out drumming. I've always wanted to give drumming a try, and since expert mode of Rock Band is pretty much the same thing as drumming out a 4/4 beat, I figured it would be a good game to get, since I'm sure my wife and some friends would have fun with it as well.

But then I hear about how stripped down the Wii version is and I'm just so disgusted with the laziness of the company that I don't even want to spend my money on their product. No DLC? I was ok with that, but no online play at all? Lame.

There are better ways (perhaps not as fun) to get into the drums.

No. Its been made quicky and stripped of its features -- Harmonix can shove it.

Yeah, I'd rather kill people with real guns than play Halo.

I'd rather skateboard for real than play Tony Hawk.

I'd rather play sports than play Mario Tennis.

I'd rather fight for real than play Virtua Fighter.

Same principle.

Smart move there.

No way. Like it's been said, no DLC means no replay value, which just doesn't make it worth it.

Nope. After the announcement of no DLC for the Wii I gave up and bought another system along with a real version of Rock Band. Rock band without new songs every so often = fail.

No I'm not. I'll get it on 360 instead since it's not stripped down on that console.

It's not stripped down the Wii just can't handle it like what happened in GH3. I will not get it because I already have it in PS2 & the kit for the PS2 is compatible for the PS3 so I might be able to upgrade to a PS3 if there is a price drop.

Agreed. If it had DLC, I would have definitely have bought it. But, since it doesn't it's not worth paying over $120.

What it's worth? For the same price on another system, you can get "the full version" of Rock Band, not the slimmed down Wii version. This is due to laziness, not system hardware. The ONLY limitation the Wii version should have is the DLC, but unfortunately they trimmed so much more.

Yeah, the Wii can't handle the graphics that the PS3 has, but if they can trim down the graphics to work on the Wii, why can't they finish the game and add in all the game modes and online play? Because they are lazy and are banking on the casual Wii owners who don't have another system to buy it. I mean, think about it. If you have an xbox or PS3, wouldn't you go out and get the better version? Yup. That's why they aren't putting much effort into the Wii version. As I said, it's for the casual folks with no other systems and don't know any better.

I will only buy Rock Band for Wii if:

1. There is a serious price drop.

2. There is no significant difference between the Wii and 360 version.

I played the game on the PS2 and I must say it was amazing. The Wii' version seems like a rip-off.

no, not because of the "stripped down-ness" of the game though. It's just not my kind of music.

there's a better chance of hell freezing over. No DLC or online that's a waste of money. I have Guitar Hero 3 and I will only have Guitar Hero 3. Who's with me on the rock band wii BOYCOTT
