jeninpa Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 I love it when they do this!! They had RB the other day for the PS2 for $25, it was for the game only though.
annmarie780 Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 I'm hoping the Sing Star Bundle for the PS3 is included. We already have Rock Band and love it. I can only sing though. Can't do anything else. :)
tokanm Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 thanks for the heads up, my DS will watch for these sales and maybe get himself some 360 games. Thank God he has his own money and a job in the summer

It is $59.99 for Wii & Xbox 360 but only $49.99 for the PS2. My DS13 has this bundle for the PS2 and it is his most played game.

The Lightning Deal will be something else. Deal of the day lasts all day unless it sells out, lightning deals only last a block of time and then the next one starts.
loves30 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 so that is the special price? now im trying to think if that is a good deal or not lol..

kennedysgirl Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 I just picked up Guitar Hero for the xbox 360 for only....... 9.99!!!!!!! I am so excited. We have an amazon credit card we used at Christams time and we received two $25 reward certificates. I finally got to use them!!! My boys will be so happy. :cheesy: We also use the card throughout the year now so I cant wait for the next one!!
racerfan Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Well it is DDR for the Wii. We already have it. It is so much fun we love it. I am always exhausted after playing.
jeninpa Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 1st deal is DDR bundle pack. My niece who is 16 just got this and loves it. She plays it every night,lol. This was the only one we didn't have but my girls didn't like it that much. Unless it happens to be a Singstar we don't have !! *fingers crossed* We have entirely too many video games,lol.

BridgeIU Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 I'm torn - wait for RB or get GH3? decisions decisions!!
caitlinn Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 I am so tempted to get GHIII for PS2...I bet that by the time I decide it'll be sold out...
racerfan Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 I'm torn - wait for RB or get GH3? decisions decisions!!We have both for Xbox 360 and the GHIII wins hands down.
jem3297 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 We have both for the 360 and while both are a blast....RB wins in this house. We all play and it is a blast. We actually use the GH wireless guitar for RB so we can have both a guitar and bass.
jeninpa Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 I'm torn - wait for RB or get GH3? decisions decisions!!Rock Band only gets played when DS13 has atleast 2 friends over.....maybe 1x a month or so. GHIII gets played almost daily!! Plus you can buy the other games to go with it, we have I,II,III & Encore '80's. So hands down GHIII!!! Dang it!! We have the Hannah Montana one too! Geez!
JazzMama Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Thanks! Just picked up Rock Band for DD's Christmas present -- will have to check back for SingStar later :)
zooskoo Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 got guitar hero and rock band. rock band is up nowDarn--I was hoping they'd have Rock Band for Wii. Oh well, saved some money.
tjarena Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Could someone help me. I don't know if the Guitar Hero or Rock Band would be good for ds7and 9? Are they too young? Which is better for that age group? TIA
racerfan Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Could someone help me. I don't know if the Guitar Hero or Rock Band would be good for ds7and 9? Are they too young? Which is better for that age group? TIAWe have had the GH series for years. We have GHI, GHII and GH80's for PS2 and GHIII for 360. My son has been playing them for years. He is now 12. MY DD is 9 and she has also been playing them. There is a easy level for them to start on and when they master it they can go to the next level. MY DS does not even go on the easy anymore he just starts on medium or hard. I think your sons would be fine with it. DS9 especially. It took my DD a little while to get the hang of it but then she was only 5 when we got the first game. Have fun.

TIAThey might be a little young for Rock Band, but I think GH would be ok. You can always get the drum and microphone later.
loves30 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 my ds is now 8 gonig on 9 he plays the guitar hero. rock band my oldest already has and he is 16. i did just get the rock band for my youngest, for his birthday. as his brother doesnt like to share cause they always break his stuff. . i was also hoping for the rock band for wii.. ohh well.
loves30 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 oopsss forgot to say that he was 7 when he was playing guitar hero.
ladymartin Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 My ds8 got guitar hero for Christmas, he was still 7. The kid can play on expert. It is unbelievable. He isn't allowed to play for more than an hour a day either. He LOVES it. From what I hear Rock Band may be a little more difficult, but DH will love. Just purchased it for Father's day.
