Or someone could learn to play a real instrument if they are going to get that fancy. I like Southparks episode of guitar hero, lol.

It seems every upgrade of the controller and the game brings it a step closer to the real thing.

Wait till you see the pro mode controller/instruments

Hmm,

Interesting; I might actually like the sound of a Fender bass now.

Well, it was good enough for Dee Dee (noticing your avatar).

The new keyboard they have on 'Pro mode' is about as legit as you can get to the real thing. You play all the notes and chords on a real midi keyboard. If you can play that, you can play a real piano.

This concerns me.

As a guitar/bass teacher with 20 students, most of whom are suddenly interested in playing because of songs they heard on Rock Band and Guitar Hero, if these things become like phrase trainers with realistic guitars, it will compromise my student base.

" But this is the only realistic bass guitar...." I had to stop it after that. Oh man..too much!

I simply cannot play a controller with a "c" neck. Get real Fender. "A" necks baby.

ROTFL!

They're basically 'there' with drums now, too. You basically play a legit (albeit cheap) electric/midi drum set that has its own kick, toms, and cymbals. Likewise, if you can play those songs on expert then you can easily transfer that knowledge to a real set and be a pretty darn good drummer with no formal training. The only thing you'd need to learn is how to use a high-hat pedal properly and how to work dynamics.

I don't play Rockband anymore, but if it gets people interested in playing instruments (especially Bass) then it's fine with me. However, I don't think I would get that, but thats just me.
