• Rock Band 3 going pro October 26, pre-order bonuses announced

  

  For those about to rock -- well, you should probably just cool your jets, as you've still got a

  little

  while to wait. A press release from Harmonix has announced that its upcoming, keyboard-infused rhythm title

  Rock Band 3

  will hit North American store shelves on October 26, 2010.

   

  Accompanying this announcement was the unveiling of the pre-order bonuses being offered by major retailers. Folks who reserve the title at Wal-Mart get a $10 e-Gift card. Those who go with Amazon will unlock an exclusive in-game guitar. Pre-orderers who go with GameStop will be able to download three songs for free at launch: "My Own Summer" by The Deftones, "Blue Monday" by New Order and "Burning Down the House" by Talking Heads.

   

  So, yeah. We'll go ahead and let you guess which retailer we're going to settle on. Go ahead.

  Think really hard
