Harmonix has an offer for all you rhythm game holdouts and Guitar Hero fans who are thinking about crossing over. You can get the Rock Band Special Edition Bundle with microphone, drum set and guitar plus Rock Band 2 for $79 with free shipping. (By comparison, the Rock Band Special Edition alone will set you back $139 at Gamestop.com - this is a bargain, kids.)
The fine print: Deal is only available for PS3 and Xbox 360 (sorry, Wii-owners) and only while supplies last. Offer available at www.rockband79.com. And no, Best Buy won't match it. They'll probably throw you of the store for asking.
Side note: If you have a vocalist in the house, I recommend getting a 3rd party mike - the original is not all that great. But with the money you’re saving on the basics alone, you can afford to upgrade the mike (or any other instrument!) well before the holidays...

I wonder if this deal has been around for at least a year yet. The website has certainly been around for months and months. I think it's not getting publicity for a reason. Only $79. It's not even eighty. Exactly $79.
