Rock Band 2 was announced at E3! How awesome is that?
..:: NEWS ::..
http://kotaku.com/5025004/breaking-official-rock-band-2-tracklist-revealed
Targeted for a September 2008 release for Xbox 360 (and TBA for PS3).
..:: INSTRUMENTS ::..
Rock Band 2 also has a new "Ion" drumkit, which has the 4 standard drums, but also what looks like 3 cymbols and a new kickpedal (that has a metal plate, instead of brittle plastic). And it's going for $300 (ouch!).
The standard Rock Band 2 drum kit will have clipspots for cymbols and an improved kick petal (also metal). So that's good.
The guitars are reportedly still the same, but with a new paint job. The strummer is still "soft", apparently.

It'll be sold separately, and be sold for a lot, because it comes with three electronic cymbals, adjustable pads, what looks like a metal frame as well as the ability to unplug it from the game and use it as a real electronic drum kit.
The standard Rock Band 2 drum kit will have clipspots for cymbols and an improved kick petal (also metal). So that's good.

I am hotly anticipating this game.
Sounds promising, however the First on was a bit too buggy for me, in terms of the Drums. With 2 Weeks the Pedal was broken, in a month the drums were nonfunctional. Anyways some classic songs, however I would like to see a bit more modern stuff it seems like that one incorporates a little more 80's.
I want that new drumset!!!
But it's $300, so I might not bother.
Luckily I have all the original rock band stuff, so I'll probably start by just buying the game.

I still dont have a PS3 or Xbox 360 yet (though I may save up for a 360, thanks to the new $300 price tag), but I, too, think this game looks pretty damn sweet. Has it been confirmed whether the original Rock Band instrument controllers can be used with RB2, however?
I think it has.
The original controllers should work with Rock Band 2. Also, there will be a way of exporting the songs from Rock Band into RB2.

In terms of music, the 80's were pretty much a wash.
Are you serious :(

Man, disparage eighties music at your own peril. That's when Van Halen actually got a good singer, Boston released their best album, and a lot of bands like Rush, Styx, Pink Floyd and Journey did their best music.
Tons of great bands started in the 80's, like REM, They Might Be Giants, the Pixies, and a lot of good bands that wouldn't get really famous until later like the Goo Goo Dolls, Gin Blossoms, Live, Green Day and Nirvana. Also, like every Hair Metal band ever. Poison, Night Ranger, Bon Jovi, Guns n' Roses, Metallica, Warrant, and Cinderella are all 80's. Just....yeah, the 80's were awesome. I'm not even counting all the stuff that was just so bad it was good, like Eye of the Tiger and We Built This City.
