It's Rock Band though =/
And i'm not a 'Beatles bum boys'. Infact, i'd barely ever heard their music before playing the game, and when I sell it, i'll probably not listen to it again. So i'll stay here if that's ok with you
Looks like ive touched a nerve
. Cant blame you tbh haha. So your playing it for the achievements then 
lol.Ive recently bought RB2 and rented RB1 to import the songs. Ive got like 160 songs :O amazing value tbh. Shame GH doesnt have this feature along with the random playlist ability because its so awesome playing songs you dont normally play.
really enjoying beatles rock band, i love the beatles anyway, quite fun so far...
However i have issues with rockband/ghero... i get between 98% - 100% on every song on medium.... but can't step up to hard for toffee! - i think they need a med/hard setting where the pace picks up but not the extra button! my little pinky just can't move across

I don't use my little finger anyway other than Green Orange chords. Other than that I move my hand.
It's just practice, I used to feel the same as you but it comes good.
I once said I'd never be able to do a fourth fret, then the same for a 5th. I said I'd never finish a queens of stoneage song on expert, which now seem very easy.
I will though never finish GGHT on expert

In RB2 at least go turn on break neck speed mode

i was not aware of that? is it the same for beatles?
I know nothing about rockband tbh (i've always just bought guitar hero) but this seems like a reason to invest if i can have the songs from both games but only own one of them?

Yup, you just need the disc from 1 to import them into 2 - so just rent or borrow.

Can anyone lend me the RB1 disc?
Also did any of you get asked to install an update when using the beatles:RB, if so can you find out which it is?. I don't want to install the new one which flashes the bootloader and removes the chance of homebrew on the 360

Who has Ions here? I may get some if they are indeed as good as people say they are.
Would be nice to use them as a real drumkit too, I can get some for £140 as I will be bringing them back from the US with me.
I was gonna get the RB2 instrument pack for roughly £80 but I figured I don't really like guitar much anyway so I'd rather pay a bit extra for the Ions, I hear they are pretty good when used as an electronic drumkit.

If i were you id just wipe that post completely. "homebrew" ahahahahahaha.
i has ion!
i got them when they were first released in the UK for £250, about a year ago. tbh once you go ion/e-kit, you'll never go back to the rb1/2 drum kits. the ion kick pedal is a pile of crap though as its a really hihat pedal and you need a proper kick pedal that can stand up to the beatings.
playing yellow patterns that are charted as hihats, on a cymbal placed where a real hihat is, is sooo much more satisfying than hitting a yellow pad.
however, if im being totally honest, over the course of the year, i think i must've spent an extra £400-500 upgrading them into a what would be considered an entry level e-kit (rock pedal, roland pdx8, roland kd8, hihatkickbox, yamaha dtxpress ii brain, pintech single zone cymbals, extra roland drum rack to supplement and strengthen the ion rack, the list just goes on and on..) and i've been totally happy with them, until i got slapped in the face by the upgrade bug's bigger brother..
right now, im having a custom kit built for me, all the looks of an acoustic kit with the advantages of them actually being electronically triggered so it'll work with rb/gh etc. heres a pic of the bass drum:
im waiting on 2 rack toms and a floor tom in the same sparkle red finish and then i'll have a drum kit again! (cant be arsed to put my ion back together again and ditched my rb1 set ages ago)
for any guitarists, check this beast out: http://www.fakeplasticrock.com/2009/09/07/mad-catz-wireless-fender-stratocaster-review/, a bit pointless as you cant use it as a real guitar (like how you can convert the ions into an e-kit) but how nice is that!

Piracy is already rampant on 360 through other (far easier) methods, and the hack I'm referring to works only for homebrew, currently an SNES emu and Xell (xbox linux loader), so your post is rather irrelavant

If you knew the policy on such talk on this forum then you would appreciate my assistance on such matters
. So basically just zip it on all things even close to piracy unless you want to get banned .
