Did Rock Band Deal An Early Blow To Power Gig?

If you missed my post about Power Gig: Rise of the SixString, check it out here. More details came out about Rock Band 3 today however. Apart from the new keyboard peripheral, Rock Band is also looking into bringing out a new guitar control that is more realistic, can be used outside of the game and within the games 'Pro Mode' to learn how to play an actual guitar. With all DLC from Rock Band 1 and 2 being forward compatible to Rock Band 3, does this mean Power Gig will go the way of Rock Revolution? Apart from the guitar, the usual line-up of instruments will be back including bass, drums and vocals (with up to 3 part harmonies). The keyboard will also be able to connect to your computer via MIDI cable to work as a real keyboard. Apart from all the DLC being compatible, Rock Band 3 will also ship with 83 new tracks on the disc. Click 'Read More' for a list of the first confirmed songs.
