    Rock Band 3 - Playstation 3 (Game)

    • Leaderboards can be accessed while in band play choosing setlists, navigation on leaderboards is improvedCONS:* Online chat quality in game is seriously diminished, not as clear when you do hear it, and cuts in and out at times like a bad cellphone connection, very frustrating, need a patch to fix this* Glitch in game occasionally without warning boots you completely out of game and to main PS3 menu where you have to restart game, this has happened to me several times, as well as all of my online friends, need a patch to fix this* Audio glitch in game occasionally makes horrendous sound through speakers that lasts about a second or so, but sounds like it could blow speakers out, need a patch to fix this* Guitar solos are not as obvious as they were in RB2 (faint blue outline on edges of note track instead of solid blue note track
    • I did have to some small adjustments to make sure I got clean hits and no double notes or cross talk
    • (the regular drumset with 3 cymbals and an optional second foot-pedal) certainly do add a bit of depth to the game; however, as a (real-life) drummer I cannot bring myself to recommend the game simply for this, as the two major problems with drums in the Rock Band series have been completely neglected yet again - the realism of the drums, and the missed notes
    • The problem is not the notes being missed, they are just not being detected
    • The charting also seems superior over GH although there are a few songs I think Harm just put some random notes in for in Expert mode, not many of its 83 songs mind you, but a few
    • The other problem is missed notes
    • While this happens, you will miss every note because it won't recognize any controller input while it's frozen.6
