MTV Games and Harmonix has brought us the next step in their rock game legacy with Rock Band 3. Rock Band 3 expands on the previous version of Rock Band by giving us the new pro mode, which allows players to play the instruments and chords just like ...
So, instead of ending this with a recap of the past seven pages, let’s finish this off with an anecdote, because I’m in that kind of mood. So, as I always do when a new Rock Band game comes out, I got “the band” back together. Myself, J. Rose and Shaw...
