Official: PS3 GH3 LP controller doesnt work with Rock Band!

This was just confirmed by IGN. The PS3 les paul guitar controller for Guitar Hero 3 does not work on Rock Band! This totally sucks for PS3 owners such as myself who purchased GH3 just to have another guitar for Rock Band.

What sucks worse...The Rock Band controllers don't work for any Guitar Hero out there :|

When I found that out I cancelled my pre-order.

Now I really wish i preordered the 360 version, I could have at least used my xplorer guitar then.

I believe Harmonix said that Rock Band was designed to work with all third party guitars so I would expect this issue to be resolved in some way.

Hopefully so because owners of Les Paul guitars for the PS3 are going to be pissed if they planned on picking up the stand alone game of Rock Band.

uhh, yeah like me. That was my plan from the start, and then purchase the drums at a later date. I could care less about the microphone. What's the deal with this crap, I mean is it REALLY that hard to do this right? As of now, even GH 1 and 2 won't work on the PS3 with the Les Paul controller. That was ANOTHER downside to the whole situation. I still bought GH3 under the assumption that in the near future either GH 1 and 2 will be downloadable through PSN or they'd resolve the issue and I'd be able to play it before too long. I don't need or want 3 - 6 guitars laying around here for all the different games... That's a bit ridiculous.
