I've been playing all night 4 player multiplayer and I've even downloaded some of the DLC tracks. The police, Fortunate Son, My Sharona. Almost everything works great, even after you figure out the controller has to be used with the microphone.
I'm having one problem though that is very annoying. The lyrics to the songs blur as they scan across the screen. I unplugged the console and restarted it and the text was fine for a little bit, but then it got blurred again. I'm afraid that it may be the beginning of the RROD. Anyone else experiencing this?
Either way the game rocks!

I would say it's your tv not the game. do the notes blur or just the text? also what are you using a video connection?

I doubt its my TV, I'm using a the component video connections into a 1 year old pioneer plasma. I've never had any other problems with it.

Only the lyrics blur, not the notes.

well It very well could be the GPU going which would lead to a RROD. There's not really anything you can do until it RRODs then just call MS.

I got the Rockband bundle last night...got lucky that my local Circuit City had a few.

Anyhow, my girlfriend and I played for several hours last night....She was complaining that the scrolling lyrics were hard to read...I took a closer look and she was correct...they were blurry..the more words in a sequence the worse it was.

I have my XBOX 360 hooked up via VGA to my Vizio 47" LCD @1920x1080. Never had that kinda issue before with any game.

We changed the game to have static lyrics and things were much better.
