Rock Band Gets a Price and Date

MTV have revealed both the final pricing and release of Rock Band, and for the most part, it's good news. The game will launch on Novmeber 23 in a package that will cost $169.99. Here are the details:

We’ve been told by our corporate chiefs that, actually, the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions will launch on November 23 at a cost of $169.99. That package will include the game, one guitar, a mic and a drum kit.

The PS2 and PS3 guitars will be wireless. The 360 one will be wired. A wireless 360 guitar will be available at a later date, those MTV people tell us.

As you will have read, the bad news is that the Xbox 360 guitar is the only one that will be wired - both the PS2 and PS3 get wireless versions!
