    Did you seriously just post ab iPhone piracy site on here like an idiot? First, piracy is illegal for good reason. Second, this is a public blog, and I’m sure there are rules against that. Losers like you ruin the software industry.

    Wish the setlist was better.. but I’m a sucker for Rock Band, and I’ll be getting it.. simply to drum along with my hands.

    Played it, didn’t like it. I prefer Tap Tap Revenge 3.

    I might try it when it goes down to 5 dollars, I’m never buying another game for 10 bucks on my phone. I wonder what this game is like on xbox, I’ve never played it before.

  5. $10! Wow, guess they really think the Rockband brand will sell. That’s 50 cents per song – seems high to me, but time will settle the app pricing issue. My guess is there is a sale in next 30 days at $4.99. BTW, when apps do go on sale, they never reimburse those that paid higher price correct.

    Have a good week all :)

    @stink7k – http://www.gamegum.com/game/1857/heroin-hero/ -of course, it’s Flash so not on iPhone yet :) Imagine the AppStore Approval Squad reviewing this? Haha…

    You do realize you never catch the dragon, right?

    Tap Tap Revenge better? Is that a joke? A game where the music still plays ok when you fail notes? LOL

    Play Cherub Rock on Rock Band and you´ll see Heaven :)

  12. BLiNK says:

    wow, blink made it??? i may have to give this one a whirl

    Got it, since I am a Rock Band junkie. Fairly nice implementation considering the limitations of the iPhone (compared to full blown Rock Band). I’ve never liked Tap Tap, but can see this as keeping me interested. Also, nice as a quick fix when the PS3 is no where in sight (or if I don’t want the Mrs to know I’m rocking out)!

    I would have liked to see more use of the mic.

    But for a mobile game it’s a good enough time killer.

    Bought the game.. Fun if you have some spare time to kill.. don’t like the setlist, or the thumb tapping.. it feels akward.. I prefer the two finger approach that I use on tap tap.. would have enjoyed thumb tapping if I could make the screen vertical, but you can’t. Online play, from what I saw.. was only through bluetooth.. which is a big disappointment, as tap tap 3 is actual online.. Game could have been great, but feels half assed.
