the best purchase i have made since my actual ps3 is rock band. it is not my favorite game, lego star wars will always fill that spot in my heart, but it is a party favorite. there have been a few get-togethers where rock band as been a great hit.this week, disaster stroke. i hadn't gotten the drums out in several weeks, and after i dusted them off and plugged them in, i realized the pedal had stopped responding. there was nothing visibly broken, no cracks or shorts in the cable or anything, it just didn't work.
i purchased it maybe 4 or 5 months ago at circuit city. i hate circuit city but it was on sale there, so i with with it. as annoyed as i am by best buy's pushiness when it comes to service plans, i wish circuit city had offered one. i didn't think about it until after i had completed the purchase, and eventually it was too late to add it on. so, there i was, way out of the 60 day warranty. sol.
as an aside, what kinda crap is it that a company can get a way with charging almost $200 for something and say it should only last 60 days?! something is very wrong with that.
anyway, as pissed as i was at electronic arts, i didn't last a day without my drums, i high-tailed it to my local best buy where i found the rock band 2 drums in stock. and, i asked about a warranty on this one before the nice best buy gal had a chance to offer it. i can now rock on!
