(1 stars) - Wii Rock Band 2 Special Edition
I received Wii Rock Band 2 Special Edition without the game DVD. All the same sets in the retail stores come with the game DVD There was no game DVD in the set sent. I had to go out and purchase the game from ToysRus on the night of my Grandson's birthday which meant the Wii game I purchased online ended up costing me more than if I had just bought it in the store. Also, it was supposed to be a new game but it did not come in the correct packaging. My entire family was very disappointed.
(5 stars) - Rock on! This is an air-guitarist's dream!
When I was a kid, me and my cousins would go out on the back deck and set up a small faux stage with plastic toy instruments, set up a cheap stereo as loud as it'd go and jump up and down pretending we were playing the hard rock and metal songs we were listening to at the time.
Needless to say, if this was available 25 years ago, we never would have stopped!
The song catalog is good, with a lot of downloadable content and frankly, this is the most fun I've had with a video game in a long time! It's a little costly for the full set, but this is easily one of the best "party" games you'll ever have for your system and unless you're a tone-deaf person with no rhythm and hate music, you'll enjoy this game. There's a good mix of modern music and oldies in the game, but it's definitely slanted to pop/rock/metal - there are packs for other genres such as country-western, but I haven't messed with those. I'd expect they'd be quite fun. My only complaints are as follows. I don't care for the fact that you have to play to unlock all the songs - they should all be available from the get-go. There is a code workaround for this (check the web) but it's annoying. Also, for some reason on the Wii, Rock Band 2 will not let you use a SD card larger than 2 GB, even though the Wii with it's updates can access those cards. This is annoying, as the downloaded content takes up quite a lot of space. Otherwise, very fun!
(4 stars) - Wii Rock band 2special edition
My 10 year old daughter loves it. So far we are only using the drums and guitar. We have not set up the mic yet and we are not sure if we need a USB or not. Overall, she loves the songs and is having a great tiem using it
(5 stars) - Needs occasional calibration, otherwise it's awesome!
I can't play a musical instrument to save my life. Neither can I sing all that well. Fortunately talent in either fields is not required in RockBand 2. You just have to be able to keep up.
The game is filled with songs that many of the players will be able to recognize, but if don't then fear not- it is still easy to keep up with the music. (You may actually discover a new song or two that you'll like!) I am a mediocre gamer & I was able to keep up fairly easily with the game in "easy" mode. The controls are very easy to get used to & I really do love the various options for band clothing.
I bought the full set (drums, guitar, ect), which makes it fun for when I have quite a few people who want to play. I liked being able to customize my character's general appearance (other than just the clothes) & give them a new hairstyle & tatoos.
The only thing I'd say is a problem is that at times I did have to recalibrate the game, but it didn't take very long & to be honest... it's not that big of a problem. It's not a deal breaker or anything. No wait... that's not entirely true. I do have another problem. The game is cutting into my sleep & budget as I keep playing on into the night & buying additional songs, because the game is very much that fun & addicting!!!
(5 stars) - WII Rock Bank 2 Special Ed.
This is exactly what my daughter wanted for her birthday. She loves it. Please note the description on amazon does not list the microphone but there is one in the box.
