As expected, Fender officially announced the release date and price of their new Squier Rock Band 3 guitar. Oddly, the surprise came from the March 1st date of release rather than the $279.99 price tag. It may be a tough sell to fans almost six months after the game releases, especially since the Pro Mustang Guitar by Mad Catz that is available to play with the game now, has gotten such mediocre reviews.
Dave writes: "Hopefully time will be kind to Rock Band 3. It’s the equivalent of a Blade Runner or Van Gogh, unappreciated and undersold in its own time, but something that has undeniable quality. We may never see another Rock Band, no encore to this great series, but in Rock Band 3 and Rock Band 4, we got some pretty awesome final tracks."
This week Omari (@OmariAkil) from @bgbrothas makers of #RapGodz joins Mike (@AssaultSuit) and Aaron (@Ind1fference) to talk about: Rap Godz and the Sonic the Hedgehog movie in addition to a plethora of board games and video games.
Joe Y writes: With server closures, glitches, and broken patches, many games have unobtainable achievements and trophies. Here are the top 10 you can't 100% anymore.
"It sounds simple enough, but due to the expiration of licenses, one of the four songs, Promised Land by Vesuvius, is no longer available to download. If you previously had it downloaded, it will *not* be taken away, so you'll still be able to grab this one."
Well damn it. I really dig that song from The Rocker and I did not know it was in RB3. I stopped playing after RB2.
Online achievement/trophies are dumb. I’m not sure why they still include them. I recall the modern warfare games were applauded for not including them.
Unless the game is an online only game because what choice is there at that point.
Half of these are false .. The Evolve one can still unlocked... Ghostbusters is only unachievable on PS3 its still online on 360.. Destiny 2 one is only unobtainable for a while as said by bungie... GTAV one can still be unlocked too in a private game. And the Black Ops 3 one can still be unlocked using a few different methods. Guy who wrote this is clueless.
When a games server goes offline then they should allow users to create their own p2p servers to keep these games active. They should also unlock or delete the trophies from any list to those who havent got them.
I can think of a few honorable mentions. there is one for smartglass seeing as smartglass is now defunct. there is also ones for 1v100 and dorito crash course 2 since both of those games are also defunct.
Surprised they didn't have it ready for release
Wow, 6 months after RB3 release? Surprising.
You can check out our video of this guitar in action at E3. Even if it is 6 months after release it looks like it still may be worth it.

It's fine. Harmonix knows people need to wait and save up for that guitar. The Rock Band Store is still hot, so they know people have patience.
Probably right jonah
I seriously doubt the delay will hurt sales too much. If people buy DLC songs for years after the game releases, then they'll buy a guitar if they want it
