Yeah, for the cost of the software, drums, and microphone, you're already past retail for the special edition. You can think of it as getting a free guitar, I suppose.Originally posted by: chexi
Special Edition comes with the instruments you need to actually play the game. Why the sell the normal edition (software only) is beyond me.

True, but not if you have a PS3. Guitar Hero guitars are not compatible with Rock Band on the PS3, unlike on the Xbox.

Other players discovered at the game's launch that the Gibson Les Paul guitar controller bundled with the PlayStation 3 version of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock is not compatible with the PlayStation 3 version of Rock Band, despite Harmonix stating that any controllers that followed the open-controller standard would work. While this incompatibility can be resolved through technical solutions, both Harmonix and Activision have cited the other party is at fault for failing to correct the incompatibility. Harmonix developed a patch to fix the issue, but it has been blocked by Activision. Activision states that MTV Games is unwilling to reach an agreement to pay Activision to use the Guitar Hero III technology in Rock Band. Nyko has announced a PlayStation 3 version of their "Frontman" guitar controller, which will work with both Guitar Hero and Rock Band. The Les Paul featured in the Wii version of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock is also said to be incompatible with the yet-to-be-released Wii version of Rock Band.
