GH Me: "Dude, you so need to get your preorder in, it's only 2 weeks till rock-town!"

Me: "I already own GH2 for my Playstation, I was going to pass."

GH Me: "Dude, downloadable content!"

Me: "Yeah, OK, I'm a sucker, I'll look around."

(sound of frantic clicking.)

Me: "OK, not too bad, I can get it for like 90 bucks."

GH Me: "Dude, you're a freaking moron. Check that dude who sponsored the podcast, cheetahpimp or whatever."

Me: "Oh, right, LionGames. Holy crap, he's 10 bucks under everyone else."

GH Me: "Dude! Righteous! And he takes Paypal! The wife will never know!"

Me: "We don't have that kind of relationship. Plus she does Quicken."

GH Me: "Dude, whatever."

That's righteous.

If you have a 360 and have never played guitar hero, I demand you buy this.

Sir yes Sir!

I've played Guitar Hero once and liked it but I never owned a PS2. Its guitarage time. (In 2 weeks)

I have yet to buy a 360 (waiting on price drop or HD upgrade) but already know GH2 will be my first. Maybe I'll buy it now and just stare at it for a while.

How much is he charging for shipping? any idea when it will hit homes for delivery?
OK looks like to MN he is charging $5 for ground delivery...so still $5 cheaper than the local place (oh and probably not taxed too...)

Five bucks, UPS ground. No idea when I'll actually get it. I'm going to gess 4-5 days after retail. Maybe he'll show up here and let us know?

But, but, there's no wireless controller, right? This makes it impossible for me to play it since my 360 is in a closet like 15 feet away from the TV

They say it's a longer cord, and I believe you can buy extensions?

That's what she said.

Ok, enough of that. I'm really tempted to, but I'm not keen on UPS dropping a package of that size on my front door while I'm out at work. Guess I'll be waiting for retail.

Gamestop advertises this one specifically being compatible with GH2.

i'm away at a game con that week, and i'm seriously thinking about bringing along the 360 and a couple of guitars halfway across the country, just to be able to play it as soon as possible. It's just necessary.

Not to rain on all of the liongames love here, but you can also get it directly from RedOctane with free shipping; the price is $89.99 and it comes with a free "gig bag" that holds 2 guitar controllers.

OK, so five bux cheaper but no bag. Don't really need the bag, because I have no friends (kidding). Actually the deal there is the two guitar set.

Still, I'm happy to through the Lion a little bit o bidness since he's helping keep the lights on.

It's not like your 360 is even working.

The biggest problem about crossing the border is the cost of tracking the shipment. I could just mail the games without any tracking, and that wouldn't be so bad, but what happens when a game gets lost. Believe me this is on my mind, and I will keep searching for a decent option.

It is $5.00 for USPS first class mail. I believe this games will get dropped shipped from one of my distributors warehouses. I might talk him into paying for some of the freight and therefore ship Ups. Most games been arriving 3 to 5 days after street. I was amazed this week, a guy in Washington ordered a GRAW 2 on Monday the 12th. I shipped it that day, first class mail, and he got the game on thursday the 15th. So sometimes things are pretty quick.

I played GH on PS2 at a BestBuy, and honestly, it completely failed to get me hooked.
I am forced to conclude that I am probably not White and/or Proletarian enough to appreciate GH.

Yes, but does Red Octane support Gamers With Jobs directly? I do not think so.

BTW I found the "Gig Bag" to be completely useless when I got it for PS2.

Dude. Harsh. Where'd you get that anyone who plays GH is blue collar Caucasian? It's fine if you don't like it, but the game won "best of ..." from everyone from spin magazine to gamerdad. Just 'cause you don't like it doesn't mean you gotta toss everyone who does into a turd-bucket.

Way to alienate your audience bro.
