Rock Band 3 will, as expected, let you do something you've never been able to do in a Rock Band (or Guitar Hero) game before: play the keyboard.

Yes, the fifth wheel of the rock world makes its long-overdue debut in Harmonix's Rock Band 3, a report on USA Today showcasing not only the new controller in action, but a revamped tracklist designed to make the most of it.

The keyboard is a "25-key, fully functioning MIDI" version of the real thing, and is one of two key improvements made to the game, the other being the introduction of a new "Rock Band Pro" mode for expert players, which replaces coloured tabs with real musical symbols in an effort to get players on the track to playing real instruments.

Rock Band 3 Teaches You To Rock With Real Guitars & Keyboards

To complement Pro mode, there are two new guitar controllers in development that feature actual strings, one a full-sized replica of a Fender Stratocaster, the other a Fender Mustang Pro. "You can go from plucking single notes to power chords and bar chords, wee have crazy stuff like tapping and slides," Harmonix's Sylvain Dubrofsky says. "If you ever had any aspirations of connecting with the music in a deeper way ... you are really going to like Rock Band 3."

A partial tracklist has also been revealed, and is predictably keyboard-heavy.

Those are the songs I'd like to play so far. But I'm definitely getting this + Guitar hoping it'll be a good new model, Keyboard controller and a replacement Mic for my dodgy second one.

Import DLC and Harmony Vocals as well? Damn I can't pass that up! [As long as the Wii version isn't crippled but I doubt it will cause RB2 and The Beatles:RB were perfect]

oh spoon, prepare for Natal + Move Dancing part like that haruhi game in the next one!
