1 - This is why Harmonix will OWN GH3

I posted this to see what kind of reaction it would get over on the Rock Band forums that I frequent. This article was kicked off the main page extremly fast(Within 2 minutes) and quickly proven not true by the lead Harmonix rep. HMXSean.

This is a very far cry from Activision/Red Octane who will ignore a million screaming and outraged fans just so they can keep milking their userbase. Another example of why it will be Rock Band inflicting MASSIVE DAMAGE on the Guitar Hero brand...

Anyways, Can't wait for GHIII Though. May get Rockband for the Drum Kit. Something new to play.

I HOPE Developers will be smart and use these peripherals as well. It opens up a whole new playing field.

HMXSean. Just closed my thread LOL. He said...

"I am going to lock this one up before it gets out of hand. If I have said it once I have said it a thousand times irony and the internet go together like toothpaste and orange juice. Ok, maybe I have only said it that time..."

The thread is funny as hell if you want to read it though...
