Wireless Guitars Now in Special Edition Rock Band Bundles
by Dan Landis on March 10, 2008 at 1:29 am
Upon a recent journey to my local Wal-Mart, I found myself in the electronics section like I mysteriously always do. What I found, however, was a slight surprise – a Rock Band Special Edition bundle with an included wireless guitar.
While I’ve read several times that the Rock Band wireless guitar would become available separately come April, I don’t remember hearing anything about the guitars being included in the bundle. Perhaps it just wasn’t advertised or maybe I just don’t pay attention since I already own the game, but it came as a surprise to me.
The bundle I saw was for the Xbox 360. I looked in the PS3 section also, but they didn’t have one. That’s not to say they don’t exist, but I can’t confirm it because there weren’t any there. If you didn’t know about this new bundle, then guess what? You heard it here first!
Riptenites assemble! Form of — Blaznats!

Welcome to Earth Welcome to Earth Dan Landis, as brad said, the guitar ps3 is already wireless.
You are paid for such news?, Are you a journalist to do this kind of news without research?

My brother bought Rock Band on PS2 on day 1 and it included a wireless guitar. My day 1 PS3 version also had a wireless guitar. This is only the 360 version that came with wired controllers. Good to hear they finally have them though.

Cool, I will most likely not be buying one though. I have the worst luck woth those stupid guitar game controllers. I have a perfect record, 4 obtained-4 defective/broken. just lovely.
Dan, let me know when they make one that works. thanks.

Oh, that’s right. I knew the PS3 guitar was wireless — it comes with that bluetooth ding-dong. My bad.

Actually, it is a wireless USB receptor so that you can use the PS2 and PS3 guitars interchangeably. The PS3 has built in bluetooth, it wouldn’t need a dongle (ding-dong). :D
