I’ve been playing Rock Band 2 pretty furiously recently. So much so that it’s taken it’s toll on the equipment. I was playing so hard that I busted my bass pedal. So I went right out and bought a replacement Rock Band foot pedal. The one I got was a lot more study than the original one. It’s metal and I don’t think I’ll be breaking it any time soon.

I went if in search of a replacement pedal and I found a bunch of replacement foot pedals for sale here. I have a Playstation 2 at the moment but I’m thinking of upgrading to a PS3 or maybe getting an XBox 360 at Christmas so I wanted to make sure I bought one that was compatible with all of them.

Which is the best Rock Band Foot Pedal Replacement?

In the end I went with this foot pedal. It wasn’t the cheapest, but it looks the most sturdy and I certainly don’t want the problem reoccurring and have to buy yet another one. The great thing about it is that it looks like a real bass pedal. It’s compatible with the PS2 and Playstation 3 (as well as the Wii and the XBox 360). I have to say, despite the cost, I’m very happy with it. It feels great and works well.

I was quite tempted by this Rock Band foot pedal. The shape of it is just hilarious and the metal foot pedal looks very sturdy. It’s not so much a replacement as a reinforcement foot pedal - it fits on to the existing controller so it’s more of a fix for a broken bass pedal. If you’re looking to fix your Rock Band 2 bass pedal it’s ideal, but that’s not exactly what I wanted, so I went with a brand new Foot Pedal relpacement.

Rock Band Double Bass Pedal

I very nearly bought a Double Bass Pedal. It’s even more pricey but it does have to be the coolest thing ever. I very nearly went for it, but I think my talents only barely extend to a single pedal. I don’t think I could handle the double pedals. Having said that, if you’re hardcore about your gaming, it is the ultimate Rock Band replacement foot pedal.

I swear it’s improved my playing as well. I definitely seem to be getting further and more easily as well. The pedal has a really great feel to it. I think I’m going to end up playing Rock Band a lot more than I have been. Whether or not that’s a good idea, you can decide for yourself.

I’ve been enjoying playing the rock band drums so much I’ve thought about taking up the drums again. I played for about 4 years in my teens. I was in a couple of bands. It was a great laugh. I’d love to be able to do it again, but the drums isn’t really practical for me right now. Not where I’m living. Or in the flat I’m moving to for that matter.
