No Doubt songs (Don't Speak, Excuse Me Mr and Sunday Morning) were released for Guitar Hero 3, we need them for Rock Band. I'm planning on buying GH3 to have another guitar although I didn't like the boss fights, but more songs to practice are always good. But having them on Rock Band is not only cheaper, but I would probably sing along to these after a few beers.

Since Jordan left, NBA's TV ratings have never been the same. This year could be one of the best post-Jordan seasons.

8 teams have a good chance of winning it all (in no order):
Boston Celtics
Detroit Pistons
LA Lakers (Boo)
Phoenix Suns
San Antonio Spurs
New Orleans Hornets
Dallas Mavericks
Houston Rockets

2 almost made the list:
Orlando Magic
Utah Jazz

I got Rock Band off Ebay for $40 shipped. Been waiting for it to be shipped from Gamerang but all the wannabes had it rented out. Now I can be the fake rock star. Great game, working my way through the hard difficulty which is a lot easier than Guitar Hero 2+3.

Took me a long time to move from medium, found it easier to play hard bass and practice from that than to slow down the guitar part. I like to hear the lyrics which is removed when the speed is reduced. I have no choice in some of the harder songs, I do have to practice a couple rounds in slow mo, need to get my finger speed up. If there is a lot of hammer-on and off, I will mess up.

Just 2 episodes into a short 8 episode season shows why Lost is tops. Even the highly advertised Sarah Connor Chronicles is no match for old faithful. If I have to wait a year for next season it is going to be torture.

The reviews for this game were definitely spot on. Even after a few hours of play I could see this turning into a boring and repetitive adventure. Run around, pickpocket, eavesdrop, save villager, kill target, run. I'm going to try to continue, hope it gets better (probably wont).
