    Ok - I admit it, I am 40 years old and I play Rock Band on the family's Wii. In fact, I'm pretty good at it (can do expert on drums and bass most songs).

    Anyone else here play it?

    Got it for PS2. I liked Guitar Hero more but mainly because my hand eye coordination isn't that great :p so I can't play drums...

    It's fun though, and I'm looking to get the new World Tour with the drums with symbols on them.

    I play it occasionally.

    My girlfriends father plays it as well - he's actually quite good!

    cant say there would be an age limit for this game.

    We do this all the time - it's a blast! 4 players, a few drinks and you got yourself a good time. Sometimes we do "husbands" vs. "wives" and things like that, it's great!

    Waldoonay - keep playing, you'll improve quicky. As I mentioned, I play real instruments, and I was horrible at this first time I played. Now, I can do expert level - although I am amazed at how adept the kids are at this!

    Andy - I have a Wii, so RB was really the only choice until Guitar Hero World Tour came out. I know there was a Guitar Hero game for Wii, but I always wanted the full band experience, so I waited. With RB2, even on Wii, you have a similar experience to the PS3 and Xbox.

    Yeah I play Rock Band/Guitar Hero World Tour. I don't have it at my apartment as it takes up too much room. But, I do play it at a local bar where they have a Rock Band event every Sunday.

    I've got Rock Band for the PS3. Told my wife I wasn't interested, but what a blast! Our family even set up a band, The Lambos and have gone on tour. My 9 year old (the drummer!) lost his mind when we won a jetliner to tour internationally!

    Badges,

    The only bad thing is that Wii RB players can't play online with PS3 or XBox players. One day, they'll get past that - I'd love to challenge the Lambos to a band battle! :)

    Haha I sat down during the summer and played with some friends somewhat often and was able to move up to hard on guitar. That's about it :D I play it once every few weeks now if I've got people over and nothing to do.
