Price a rip-off and Guitar has no backwards compatability with Guitar Hero games.The price is an absolute disgrace and has resulted in a severe customer backlash. There is absolutely no way that the price point can be justified as it is nothing but total greed. There is no way that EA should be legally allowed to sell the product at nearly double the US price!
To add insult to inury I recently discovered that the Rock Band guitar is NOT, I repeat NOT backwards compatible with Guitar Hero 2 or 3 (although the GH guitars do work with Rock Band).
That was the final nail in the coffin for me so I will not be buying this game.
If the UK has any sense at all then consumers will give a giant thumbs down to the pricing and refuse to purchase the game.

Ignore the Price MoanersGreat Game. Lots of fun. And not as pricey as the RRP. Games are about fun and this game is superb.

Totall shambles!What a load of crap this deal is!
its bad enough that EA & Harmonix epect us to fork out 130 quid for a bunch of controllers! let along go out & spend another 50 quid on the saoftware! if you want this game get it imported from the states it will work out alot cheaper & i think im goign to stick to guitar hero from know on atleast activision have fair prices for their "bundles" but i can still see Guitar Hero World Tour costing around the same price (130)

Outrageous pricing.EA should be taken to court for exploiting the European market like this. I have a feeling their marketing department will find these types of comments hugely amusing as they know they will sell heaps whatever. It is abhorrent that such arrogance is tolerated but I fear most consumers won't know just how much they are being ripped off.

Wow!OK Yes it is expensive, and yes the price should be dropped some.
However, if you forget about the money and only look at the game its AMAZING, ok I have gh2 & gh3, but this is worth it for the drums alone.
Great game - even better with friends
