Rumour: Rock Band PS3 coming to Europe this September?

15
Although Rock Band was released on both the PS3 and Xbox 360 in North America in November 2007, Harmonix's music video game only arrived on European shores as a timed Xbox 360 exclusive in May this year.

Since then EA has skirted around the issue of when the PS3 version of the game would become available in Europe, only saying that additional platform would follow later in the year.

PS3 Rock Band fans will be interested to know that a retailer listing has popped up (thanks NeoGaf) suggesting that Rock Band will be released on the Wii, PS3 and PS2 this month across Europe. While EA has not yet confirmed the release dates, the listing does back up rumours from earlier in the year which suggested a September release date for the PS3 version of the game.

1 - Personally......
I believe besides GeoW2. This is the biggest thing for the 360 this year. That`s kinda sad considering it`s like a 1 month timed exclusive and will be out for PS3 by Xmas. If MSFT could have "secured" it until after Xmas, THAT would be big.

Edit: Oops, I thought I was talking about RB2, holysh!t you guys don`t have RB1 yet?

The 360 yes, the rest no. Besides, we almost pay double the price it costs in the US.

Yup, nearly a year late and at a higher price than in NA.

But we're Europeans so that makes it ok. :)

Ah Europe. I feel bad for our brothers there. Always getting the shaft when it comes to game releases.

By the time everybody in Europe can play RockBand - for about twice as much money as the US, though - RockBand 2 will be out. Take a guess which one I'm buying, if at all.
Hint: PS3 has region-free games.

So Rockband 2 will be out before the first one is even released on the PS3

I guess thats one timed exclusive which was worth the money

Rockband a big seller? I know a lot of people here in the UK with Guitar Hero but not many with Rockband. It's like £200 ($400) here, that's just to much for some people.

Still the times I have played it have always been good fun. But do you guys think it's good enough to justify that cost? Being able to take the songs from the game and put them on your mp3 player etc would be good.

Theres a reason why Guitar Hero has sold a crapload more than Rock Band, this is one of them.

I dont think many PS3 owners really care about Rock Band.
