I believe the MadCatz bass controller is better (double strummer)? At least Höfner bass looks beautiful. Also the drums are just like the RB2; so, no cymbals... will the 3-cymbal expansion kit work? Or shall we wait (forever) for RB3 drums??? The bass only allows for a single finger-hit… I believe the MadCatz bass controller is better (double strummer)? At least Höfner bass looks beautiful.

I'm not a graphics nut on the game console, so that's not an issue. Agree with you that the sound quality is an issue, but my console's not usually hooked to anything dolby capable.

I'm sure the multiple USB mic support will be there (not sure about wireless options), and I'm positive the DLC will work as it already does on the Wii for RB2. The graphics, of course, will suffer some, but that's not the focus of these games really. I'd be more worried about the lack of decent dolby digital sound, myself.. Hi Thom,

The multiple microphones seem like a deal-breaker. Any word on how crippled the Wii version will be? The multiple microphones seem like a deal-breaker.

Drums and Guitar, are all wireless. Well, except for the bundled mics, but that's why I recommend picking up a cheap copy of Lips for the 2 fantastic wireless mics! http://www.fakeplasticrock.com/2008/10/14/wireless-microphones-for-rock-band-and-world-tour/ yes — everything is wireless this generation!

For the price I would hope so, but the product description doesn't really say. So what I want to know is if the instruments are all wireless.
