Rock Band 2 has been out for a few weeks on Xbox 360, leaving plenty of PS3, Wii and PS2 owners wondering when they’ll get to rock out on their system too. Today, MTV and Harmonix cleared that all up:
Rock Band 2 will ship for PS3 on Oct. 19 (next week), while Rock Band 2 for the Wii and PS2 will ship “in December.” No specific Wii or PS2 dates were available as of publishing this article.
