I'm just irritated that you need to use Wii remotes to use this damn instruments. You need two for the guitars and one for the drums and I only have to freaking controllers so it'll cose me $100 more just to play on the Wii. I might just buy this for the PS3 then...
If we were the last man and woman on Earth, I bet we could do it in public

I won't have the problem with buying th controllers since I have three already. I'll just have to buy more rechargable batteries.
Is there a price point on the game yet?
