Man I didn't know the name of this channel changed and on top of that this is my favorite video of all time because hearing Derek rainbow in the dark amazing. I know there has to be a full video of this somewhere of the performance can you please upload at Mark please for old-time sakes and I don't know what happened to Derek I hope he's still alive and well
Awesome review! :D Right before I saw this I was singing "The power of love" to myself .It looks like a great game-I didn't even think about getting it because I thought it only plays with the real instruments,but after watching the review I might reconsider...
So what happened to Thunder Farse III that made them break up? Was there an argument about who should be front man? Or perhaps a deceased band member? All this and more when Behind the Music on Vh1 continues...
@GTAsouthparkfan : at 2:09 , it is Rainbow in the Dark, by the great Dio. Ronnie James Dio was the singer in Black Sabbath, and had a solo carreer (Rainbow in the Dark or Holy Diver are amazing songs). He died in May of this year from cancer.
I remember playing Rock Band after school back in high school. Those were some of the best gaming sessions ever! +1 on the Power of Love. I need to watch Back to the Future again...
@thedecaycafe: Yeah, Inecom, LLC. decided to rent a storage unit after splitting off from its former parent company, Algor, Inc., when it was purchased by Autodesk, Inc.
@KpopFan20 Yes rock band instruments can play guitar here, but not the other way around exept for one of the newer ghitar heros. The RB guitar has an extra set of buttons.
I have like 320 songs from mostly older games since ive only bought like 10 dlc songs... And id die wthout pro drums, they make it a million times more fun so thank god for exporting from old rbs
My game system that I have most of my rock band games on is BROKEN! But I still have my wii with rock band, rock band 2, rock band 3, LEGO rock band, GH4, GH5, and band hero and all I have is a microphone controller and a drum controller with missing drumsticks and a missing foot pedal. I actually had to make home made drumsticks. I NEED AUTO KICK FOR ROCK BAND 1-3!
@thoraxtheimpaler09 Noo, i know that, i mean all the songs i downloaded from the Xbox Live Market Place? Will have to get them again or do they count as *the old songs from RB2"
How do you put the rock band 2 songs on rock band 3 it put my rock rock band 1 songs on there that i exported to rock band 2 but it did not put the rock band 2 songs on there and how do you get the ACDC songs on there because they said before that you would be able to put them on there all so.
@ThrashMetalForces Tab is the musical score for a guitar and notation is the musical score for piano's. With the keyboard and "real" guitar controller it should use these forms of music and when they scrolling down the screen it will be impossible to read quick enough with most songs.
Real instruments? That is incredible that they designed such devices. Now we can be good at real instruments AND be good at Rock Band. I am very happy they added the keyboard. SUCH AN UNDERRATED INSTRUMENT in bands and should be used more! For these games, I think keyboards and drums can't really change much, considering drums were done fairly realistically from the start (just add some cymbols, and you got the full set), and keyboards need at least 2-3 octaves for some decent gameplay.
This series needs to feature classic Styx songs from the DeYoung/Young/Shaw/Panozzo/Panozzo period (1975-1984). Stuff like "Miss America," "Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)," "Eddie," "Too Much Time on My Hands" and "Heavy Metal Poisoning."
Hey do u guys still play this game? If so are ya lookin for or need another jammer? I'm very good at singin anythin! And I get anywhere between 90 to 100%
@ThousanWhite DEFINTLY YES!!! you can spend 20 hours paying the piano But don't buy it for play on the standard mode only (with only 5 notes, like the standard guitar) if you buy this, youl'll be satisfaced the day you'll play a song in PRO mode (playing all the keys) in difficult or expert level The piano songs are great on this game, trust me
Hey Mark, you made videos of tomatoes, your dog, beer, a can opener and one of an extension cord. Could you record at least one whole song with the whole group?
can somebody help me ive played rockband eversince the first one came out and im playing 3 again after a year and it has been in its case the whole entire time and i was just playing and my game has never done this before but it started to just stop in the middle of gameplay and it goes right back to the game system menu can somebody tell me what is going onb
7:00 Ah ah ah. The groupies are dowloadable content. :) Great review, even if there are few infos in it. According to IGN, this game is more of the same (which is good), and the keyboard allows you a new way of play (the pro guitar is a scam : you should better play real guitar). The only minus is about the involvment of the public, we do not hear the chorus anymore during the songs (I liked the mood of concert in RB2). My DLC : Kansas, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Dead Weather, Testament,...
I'll miss these reviews, they made my day everytime I came back from school
Late I know bit I'm in the same boat as you. only after finding one of the videos in my recommend is when I like a kid again
This exactly. From 2008 - 2013 i would watch CGR every weekday after high school. Even when he reviewed a donkey kong chiquita banana. Good times
Same
My Dad’s friend would come over and play this game a lot. My dad would be on the guitar and my dad’s friend was the drummer.
Man I didn't know the name of this channel changed and on top of that this is my favorite video of all time because hearing Derek rainbow in the dark amazing. I know there has to be a full video of this somewhere of the performance can you please upload at Mark please for old-time sakes and I don't know what happened to Derek I hope he's still alive and well
hearing derek belt out rainbow in the dark fucking made my week
Awesome review! :D
Right before I saw this I was singing "The power of love" to myself .It looks like a great game-I didn't even think about getting it because I thought it only plays with the real instruments,but after watching the review I might reconsider...
Rare footage of Derek and Mark rocking out in a video
Greatest review yet. Is it wrong for me to start singing along to Huey Lewis and the New's "The Power of Love"?
Mark singing death metal to the cure makes me laugh every fucking time
Man you guys always manage to crack me up lol. Love the review!
Jamming out in a storage unit? Noiice.
Great review. I'd like to see more of you guys playing party games with banter.
Singing death metal to The Cure is still passable on easy xD
If anyone sings to the Cure in a glam metal style would that also be cool?
love this trailer i wanna share it with other rockers lol:) thank you :) you guys rocks lol :)
He should seriously join a band. I'd buy all their albums. :)
lol Derek is awesome
where is your underwater layer?? looks like a storage shed :) excellent review
just watching you guys play the game made my week
I only have the drums for this game,
and im a guitarist.
Should i buy the guitar aswell?
Cause i allready know how to play.
"When you earn a trophy sony buys you a beer." Subbed
nice ac/dc t-shirt at 4:53=D
It looks good, and good review=) Its a shame you couldn't have did the pro instruments.
So what happened to Thunder Farse III that made them break up? Was there an argument about who should be front man? Or perhaps a deceased band member? All this and more when Behind the Music on Vh1 continues...
they broke up because mark kept killing derek
What was the first song we heard after the intro of the CGR Logo???
Will you do a second mini review with the "real" guitars, even if you suck at it? Seems to be the only point to update.
Great review as always.
Cheers
Good review, but I'd like to have seen one of the big additions to RB3.. the keyboard or Rock Band Pro mode.
Rocking it out in the secret underwater base- another epic review cgr!
What song were they singing at 1:34? It "sounded" like hey jude but i couldn't tell through the tone deafness.
@GTAsouthparkfan : at 2:09 , it is Rainbow in the Dark, by the great Dio.
Ronnie James Dio was the singer in Black Sabbath, and had a solo carreer (Rainbow in the Dark or Holy Diver are amazing songs). He died in May of this year from cancer.
I remember playing Rock Band after school back in high school. Those were some of the best gaming sessions ever!
+1 on the Power of Love. I need to watch Back to the Future again...
The CGR base doesn't look very water tight...
Be careful down there.
Can you buy a bundle for Rock Band 3 that has the normal guitar instead of the Professional one?
I am addicted to Classic Game Room Videos!!!!!!!!
When are you guys going on tour?
Someone help me out...is the keyboard worth the money?
@thedecaycafe: Yeah, Inecom, LLC. decided to rent a storage unit after splitting off from its former parent company, Algor, Inc., when it was purchased by Autodesk, Inc.
Wait, do you have to use the official Rock Band keyboard or is there anything you can buy to use a real keyboard with it?
Man your friends are hardcore :P
i'm not a fan of music games but the review is really cool thumbs up!
Classic Game Room deserves an Emmy Award!!!!!
@KpopFan20 Yes rock band instruments can play guitar here, but not the other way around exept for one of the newer ghitar heros. The RB guitar has an extra set of buttons.
Huey Lewis and the News?! THAT'S AWESOME!!! And i also heard whip it. The music is definetly varied.
I have like 320 songs from mostly older games since ive only bought like 10 dlc songs... And id die wthout pro drums, they make it a million times more fun so thank god for exporting from old rbs
so if you use the midi addon you can use a regular guitar?
@ThrashMetalForces Yeah a game where the notes are traveeling down the screen at a certain tempo how are you meant to read tab or notation.
Mark is the 1st reviewer ive seen that most of the time prefers to buy mulitiplatform games on the ps3
What rockband do you like the best
so awesome to see derek being really into it :d
whats the name of the background track in the menu screen????????
My game system that I have most of my rock band games on is BROKEN! But I still have my wii with rock band, rock band 2, rock band 3, LEGO rock band, GH4, GH5, and band hero and all I have is a microphone controller and a drum controller with missing drumsticks and a missing foot pedal. I actually had to make home made drumsticks. I NEED AUTO KICK FOR ROCK BAND 1-3!
i miss rhythm game for decade.
wait, i downloaded every A7X song for rock band 2
Will then work for rock band 3
Will i have to buy then again or just download them again.
What good are groupies if you have to pay for them?
Wonder what Dereks doin nowadays..
Derrek and Mark... what a great team👍
I'm actually interested in the 80's pop like Huey Lewis and News... But for plastic peripheral rythm games, I'm getting my fix with DJ Hero 2.
@thoraxtheimpaler09
Noo, i know that, i mean all the songs i downloaded from the Xbox Live Market Place?
Will have to get them again or do they count as *the old songs from RB2"
@Strongwoods could you sing the Bangles?
Will my Guitar Hero controller work with Rock band 3?
How do you put the rock band 2 songs on rock band 3 it put my rock rock band 1 songs on there that i exported to rock band 2 but it did not put the rock band 2 songs on there and how do you get the ACDC songs on there because they said before that you would be able to put them on there all so.
do the rock band 2 peripherals work for rock band 3?
Wow, so that's what Derek's high-pitched voice is for.
I have two things in common with him, once I am a heavy metal singer and I love Nintendo, haha.
This is probably the best review ever.
@ThrashMetalForces Tab is the musical score for a guitar and notation is the musical score for piano's. With the keyboard and "real" guitar controller it should use these forms of music and when they scrolling down the screen it will be impossible to read quick enough with most songs.

wow the guy from CGR undertow LOOKS COMPLETELY different from when i saw him last... Thats the power of love i guess
im assuming i cant use my dean as the pro controller?
This series needs to feature classic Styx songs from the DeYoung/Young/Shaw/Panozzo/Panozzo period (1975-1984). Stuff like "Miss America," "Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)," "Eddie," "Too Much Time on My Hands" and "Heavy Metal Poisoning."
this is how an awesome game is reviewed. good job, and awesome performance.
Love this game. It has my favorite songs.

@pobbart13 Why would Weird Al play a flute?!? You probably meant the accordion.
How much does is cost to download new tracks?
More Anthrax? Why didn't we see it before?

Hey do u guys still play this game? If so are ya lookin for or need another jammer? I'm very good at singin anythin! And I get anywhere between 90 to 100%
@ThousanWhite DEFINTLY YES!!!

if you buy this, youl'll be satisfaced the day you'll play a song in PRO mode (playing all the keys) in difficult or expert level

Hey Mark, you made videos of tomatoes, your dog, beer, a can opener and one of an extension cord. Could you record at least one whole song with the whole group?
i must know waht that song from 30- 50 seconds is please
@wesley12106 I dont think so, but you can import AC/DC live at Donnington trackpack and I think the one or two AC/DC songs from RB2
what muse song was that?.
To get the groupies, you actually have to play at your local Best Buy.
AAre there any ACDC songs in this game?!?!?
what song is he singing at about 2:11?
can somebody help me ive played rockband eversince the first one came out and im playing 3 again after a year and it has been in its case the whole entire time and i was just playing and my game has never done this before but it started to just stop in the middle of gameplay and it goes right back to the game system menu can somebody tell me what is going onb
@MetallicaKing48 King Diamond, and Mercyful Fate for that matter, are Heavy Metal, and Slayer and Testament are in the Thrash Metal genre.
@SamanthaCarterFan01 all tracks are 160 msp on xbox or 1.99 on ps3
I would love to see Derek sing "Sleep Now In The Fire" from Rage Against The Machine! Not to mention he kinda looks like the lead singer from them.
Rock band 4 was announced
btw nice review, the songs sounds awesome!
what is name song derek sing at 2:09 ?
7:00 Ah ah ah. The groupies are dowloadable content. :)
Great review, even if there are few infos in it. According to IGN, this game is more of the same (which is good), and the keyboard allows you a new way of play (the pro guitar is a scam : you should better play real guitar).
