What rocker wouldn't want to add a little sparkle to the mic? Lips developer Keiichi Yano said it could be done. Microsoft and MTV Games say it will be done: We "are working together to ensure that consumers will be able to use the wireless mics from Lips with Rock Band 2," confirmed a statement received by MTV Multiplayer.
There's no set date for the patch, but we can expect Harmonix has marked this task a priority in its obsessive conquest to make any and all third-party instruments compatible with Rock Band -- and, in turn, we'll be sure to update the Matrix in our own obsessive conquest to chart any and all instrument compatibilities. Muwhaha!

I wonder if they can patch the mic gestures from Lips into Rock Band also.
Harmonix and iNiS should collaborate on a new IP sometime in the future.

As a fool who bought Guitar Hero 2, Lips & Rockband 1 drums from Circuit City for $30... This would be nice!

Actually you guys have been incredibly lazy in charting instrument compatibilities. I have e-mailed you multiple times to note that the Wii World Tour Generi-caster works perfectly with the standalone AC/DC Live Rock Band Track Pack for the Wii, but you haven't taken any action.
"Charting" out the compatibility for the Wii is the most important service you can do with your matrix, as it is the only platform that won't be seeing compatibility update patches.

But can I use the Rock Band mic with Lips? I don't want another mic.

Will both mics work at the same time with rockband? I would love to be able to split the highs and lows with someone...
Considering how much ("too") I( have already spent on rockband, buying Lips for a wireless mic seems like a no-brainer - plus it's probably a good game to have around from parties.

I love the look of the Lips mics, now I'll have a reason to buy them. Looks like Harmonix really is keeping their promise of making Rock Band a platform. Except for the AC/DC thing but that wasn't their fault.

AC/DC wanted their song pack to be retail, on a physical disc, and exclusive to walmart/sams. They wanted it to be more akin to an album release like their last album and Harmonix simply complied with their request.
