I preorded from amazon (xbox 360 standard version) and played it for a few days. I would say that I've unlocked at least 30% of the songs already. Played it as 2 players as well and enjoyed it greatly with drums, guitar, and microphone combination. There are some songs that won't have certain alternate tracks for a particular equipment but those are few. There is also a song that is only 1 minute long and I wonder why it was included as a track since the intro was longer then the song itself. Also I did not see any lag or hickup while the song played so that is realy great. Haven't been able to try online multiplayer yet since it is only a couple of days after it was released. However these are small stuff and the game is fun over all.
At startup the player has the option to play quick band or career mode. However unlike the Rock Bank series you never get the option to buy more shirts or add more accessories to your characters. The choices are automatically picked based on what your role within the band is. Using the guitar auto picks the guitarist within the band, same with drums and microphone. I was hoping to be able to create a newbie avatar that grows with the band as I help them rise to fame. The song list contains 3 stages with about 4 songs on each stage. Pass those songs and you unlock the next song pack within that stage. Each song gives you credit that unlock images and videos but these are unlocked for you as you go along. You never get the feel that you're shopping for something at all and before a good video can be unlocked you need to unlock the others that comes before it in order down the list. Some extras require a perfect score on a song or a minimum of stars on a particular set of songs like an achievement that only you can look at.
On the plus side the game is fun to play with notes being accurate with the song. I haven't played expert mode just yet since its still too new for me to learn them. The star powers creates an echo in the song that makes it sound very sweet to the ear. Anything above easy will give you combo notes where you'll need to press 2 buttons at the same time in rythm for guitar as well as drums. The vocal side of play is easy and a perfect score can be obtained with a little bit of effort. The achiements are fun too, such as playing with your left hand or the one that ask you to play a particular song with all instruments. Each stage consist of a particular theme that goes with the music that portrays a particular part of their band career and each song has an animation intro that lets you watch the band warm the crowd up or tune their instruments. Some intros are repeated so it's not numerous as the songs. The great song and the achievement I believe is what will keep you coming back to this game.

Disc arrived in terrible condition. It’s not only scratched all the way around the disc in a circular pattern (from opening an Xbox while it’s spinning) but on top of this, it’s CRACKED in the center. The final blow was that once I put the disc in, IT DIDNT WORK! It gave me the disc is dirty or broken error. Returning immediately....buyers beware.
