Additonal Info:
EA has announced the pricing for their upcoming release of Rock Band for the United Kingdom and it isn't pretty. We're not sure what EA was thinking when they came up with this pricing plan, but there is a high chance of failure for Rock Band at its currently scheduled price release.
As many of you know, Rock Band was released at $169.99 USD in North America; so it came as a shock to hear that in order to gain all of the instruments including the game itself, it would come out to a shocking £169.99 up to £179.99. If you're doing your math right, that is almost £100 more than the North American version.
What is really odd, is the fact that EA decided to bundle the instruments for £129.99, which doesn't even include the game. On top of his already bad news, it is believed that this is going to be a timed 360 exclusive and that the Wii and PlayStation 3 owners will have to wait awhile before getting their hands on the product.
If any of this happens to change before the May 23 release date, we'll keep you updated.

HMMM £100 more thats a complete rip off i aint buying unless they seriously reduce that price tag.
You have to be kidding me? £100 more than the US? If someone buys this then they're the most idiotic people in the Uk. I think EA are making a really really big mistake..

Greed sheer Greed with added stupidity, does EA stand for Egotistical Ar$eholes !!!!!!

well you can import instrument and game for PS3, other then that if you have 360 and wii you are pretty screw with the prices.
If I reallly wanted this game, I'd import it without any consideration. To top it off, the guitar from GH3 isn't even compatible with Rock Band!!!
EA....the new Microsoft!?!
the wost thing is you know its still going to sell.
@iplayonlysony
They usually cost around £40, sometimes less depends on the game.
But anyway this is flippin mad, if they actually want to sell some they need to lower prices
