Avkar Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Thinking about getting this. Is it worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthbster Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Do you like Rock Band games? Do you want easy trophies? I'm pretty sure you can get this game for $20 now too, so why not? It's a fun diversion and for 10 more bucks you can import 47 more songs to Rock Band 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avkar Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 Yeah I'm a Rock Band fan, I've got Rock Band 1 and Beatles: Rock Band. I want to get RB 2, but I've ended up getting other things in the past 6-8 months, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Uncharted 2, and Red Dead Redemption. I'm leaning towards getting it.

darthbster Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 That's cool. You will probably like this game too then. Some of the songs aren't very good, but overall it's not bad. I would buy the export key for Rock Band 1 (5 bucks on the ps store) and if you have alot of dlc that's good too. Otherwise you will get REAL sick of playing the same songs over and over. I can see why you've put off RB2 for those other excellent titles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raoul Duke Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 If you like Rock Band there's no reason not to. It's cheap as hell (I got it for 9.99 brand new at EB Games), easy trophies.... Most of the songs suck but whatever, something different to rip through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atirador Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Easy Trophies? YES Easy Platinum? HELL NO!! Seeing the videos on YouTube, I tought that FC Final Countdown solo on Expert would be a lot easier than it actually is. Since I became a trophy-addicted I avoid playing games that I can't platinum, to keep my trophy card pretty. But I was totally fooled into thinking that LRB would be easy... Now I have ANOTHER game that I will probably never get the . Bummer... It's still a lot of fun if you like RB2, and you can export all of the songs for RB2. So I think it's still worth it.

Holi-chan Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 (edited) is it worth $20 bucks? probably. is it worth $10 definitely yes! plus u can export all songs to your rb song list although that will cost another $10 bucks. something i realized after i brought the game is that u will need to have your own full band instruments to get the platinum since theres no online mode for this game. i dont have a bass guitar (2nd guitar) so hoping i can use the future hybrid rb3 guitar for those two trophies edit: or u can get a friend (with a guitar controller) to come over to your house and help u with the full band trophies (2) Edited July 24, 2010 by Holi-chan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avkar Posted August 1, 2010 Author Share Posted August 1, 2010 Too late, already picked it up! It was free though. Had a $20 gift card so just used that to pick it up from Gamestop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slamma Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I've been considering picking up LEGO Rock Band myself. I love Rock Band 2, and I have quite the collection going... I'd like to hear some opinion on the actual game, not the trophies or the price. Avkar, have you had a chance to play through some songs yet?

I'd like to hear some opinion on the actual game, not the trophies or the price. Avkar, have you had a chance to play through some songs yet? The game is disappointing. There are many gigs, but few songs, so you'll be playing the same songs over and over and over again. Moreover, the song charts leave much to be desired. Nothing is difficult, but many songs are annoying as hell ("Kung Fu FIghting" is my personal hatred). The in-game graphics are cute, but you don't really notice anything other than the highway in these games. All in all, it was a disappointment for $40, but might satisfy at $20 (its current price here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to sit down and play for about 10 minutes yesterday, getting through two songs. I thought it was fun, but until I really sit down and play with some friends for a couple of hours I won't really know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still a lot of fun if you like RB2, and you can export all of the songs for RB2. So I think it's still worth it. Buying games based on easy platinums means you'll miss out on a slew of excellent games, e.g. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, wipEout HD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syn_Zero Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Not really worth it at full retail value (currently at $30), but right now Amazon's got it at $15, which is a pretty good deal. I'm personally a huge fan of music games, especially Rock Band 2, and so far LRB has been fun. It's different, which is a good thing, even though it's got kind of a strange songlist. And yeah, you can export everything to RB/RB2 (and I assume RB3 when it's out later this month) if you buy a new copy and pay another $10 - kind of a rip when you think about it, but eh... you can tell yourself, "At least I didn't buy this when it FIRST came out."

StAnger1619 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I know this thread's been dead, but I just have to put in my two cents on it lol As a game, I have to agree, there are too many gigs for the amount of songs ON DISC. the concept is neat, being a lover of actual Lego it kinda fused two things that I consider a hobby. To be completely honest, I only bought this game for one purpose and one purpose only... for The Final Countdown! I never knew it was on the game until I looked at the songlist recently (I must've only looked at the songlist when it was still partially done). So in a way, I guess I'm saying I would've paid $20 for it if it was a single for DLC =P imo the trophies are ridiculously easy, I've been using the "fan trick" just to get the story mode over and done with (it would've been a major grind if you played it seriously, this way, you're just listening to music basically, and having Family Friendly DLC helps this A LOT) I haven't gotten around to the one for Final Countdown, but it seems fairly straight-forward (I personally love the RB engine for HOPOs, so I guess I'm just lucky that way lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
