I'd buy Rock Band if I was gonna spend that much on a peripheral. That's insane for a stupid little skateboard peripheral. I was very skeptical even before the price was leaked, but now it's definitely not a buy for me.

not at all

I'm interested in seeing how many will buy it. Still a lot of young fans out there that would be into it. Haven't seen the peripheral just yet. I need to take a look at it before I make any further assumptions. I stopped playing Tony a while ago. Might pick it back up for the achievement points but too many better games coming out that I'd save money for. I'll wait for it to hit bargin bin.

This seems like a really bad move for Activision.

I kind of hope it fails with the way they've been whoring out the Guitar Hero franchise lately.

Activision is really going all in with the peripherals. They've got Guitar Hero, a DJ game, and now this. But damn, Wii Fit is only $90.

The game even requires you use the board. Guitar Hero didn't require the guitar until World Tour, and by then, the genre had been established enough for people to know what they were getting. There's also more than one game to use your guitar or drums with.

[goh]

Nope. I was only going to get it if the board wasn't needed anyway. I wouldn't pay that much if I wanted the board though.

I checked my files, and I still have this under "Hell No".
