Rock Band standalone instruments dated, priced
The makers of Rock Band have announced dates and prices for standalone instruments for all versions of the game. The drum kit will be released on Feb. 12 for $79.99, followed by a wireless model of the Fender Stratocaster guitar on April 1 for $59.99 – a standalone Rock Band-branded mic was not detailed. The PlayStation guitar (but apparently not the drums) and drums will be compatible with both the PS3 and PS2 versions of the game. Currently, the Rock Band game disc can be purchased separately (without peripherals) and is compatible with various guitar controllers and USB microphones; a third-party drum set is not yet available.
