That is strange. I'm not having any of those issues (well, I can't gold star songs, but that isn't anything new. LOL)! Is there a way to clear the title update? Then it would redownload it. Maybe that got messed up somehow?

I just played some DC3 and very happy songs like Stereo Love made it in, finally good music. Hope the trend continues. When does the first of the new DLC hit?

Gangnam Style's been dated. November 27th.

It's from Microsoft retail Expertzone site. Basically they're doing a promo where you get 400 points for posting a pic. of doing that dumb dance pose all the way from now until the DLC is released.

The post is as follows if you want to be first to break the news.


Hey ExpertZone,

I'm officially announcing that Tuesday, November 27th, 2012, will hereby be known as “Gangnam Style Day” here on ExpertZone! To celebrate, we’re giving 400 Microsoft Points to each and every ExpertZone member that participates in an exclusive contest dedicated to this special occasion. But before we dive into the contest’s details, you might be asking, “Why Gangnam Style and why the 27th?”
Let’s start with “Why Gangnam Style?” I’m sure you’ve all heard Psy’s song by now, but if you’ve been living under a rock or just want to relish in the awesomeness again, check out the video here:

Gangnam Style by Psy. With over 650 million YouTube views, a number 2 peak ranking on the US Billboard charts, and more parody videos that I could even begin to describe, Gangnam Style has definitely been a huge cultural phenomenon and a hit with audiences worldwide!
Next, “Why the 27th of November?” I’m happy to announce that both the song and the unmistakable dance are going to be available for download via Xbox LIVE for Dance Central 3! That’s right, Harmonix is bringing “Gangnam Style” DLC to the top rated franchise overall for Kinect! Not only will you and your customers be able to learn the authentic choreography, but think about all of the different opportunities everyone will have to impress friends, family, strangers, and more with the exact moves Psy uses!
Now that you’re excited, let’s get you even more pumped by talking about the contest and your exclusive chance to win 400 Microsoft Points! From now until “Gangnam Style Day” on November 27th, upload a photo of yourself doing the “Gangnam Style” dance to appropriate ExpertZone "Xbox Pros" forum thread. You know which dance I’m talking about. Per the picture below, put one wrist over the other and pretend you’re riding a horse (shades optional). Simple! The first 100 ExpertZone members to post their picture will be guaranteed to win 400 Microsoft points, and better yet, you’ll also be entered to win a copy of Dance Central 3 or 1 Year of Xbox LIVE Gold!

Thanks man! I'm all over that.

Their Facebook page also alludes to "Gangnam Style Day" on the 27th, but doesn't have the full blog post like on the site.

Though I figure we may get possibly further confirmation with Major Nelson announcement for coming weeks.

And here we go:

I very much appreciate the heads up.

Yeah! I'm looking forward to downloading that one. Should be fun.

Now I'm paranoid for "breaking the news" on this and been rereading it repeatedly just to be sure that I didn't misinterpret or misread anything. Though it comes out on a Tuesday, which is usual Dance Central DLC day and it makes sense for them to release this ASAP, while that dance and song are still relevant. So, so far everything seems to check out.

Gangnam Style tomorrow!

So with dc3 being $15 I bit. Do they let you export dc2 like they did with dc1. If so is it 800 points again?

Bardok-kun was definitely right about the release date. BTW, if you write for a gaming site, Harmonix is providing DLC codes for 'Gangnam Style.'

Red Worm, yes, DC 2 songs export. I think it's 800 again too. You have to do it through the store menu in DC3.

Hooray! I Did something good!

Also I dread purchasing that song tomorrow, but goddamn the completionist in me.

I've already queued it up. I'm looking forward to trying it out tonight. Also wasn't the export 400 points? I can't remember now, though. Maybe it was 800. In any case I did it and it worked fine. I have DC1, DC2 and DC3 songs plus some downloads in one game. Also, you get beginner level added to all the old songs.

Gangnam Style is great! It's not too hard, but is quite a workout. Mind you I'm only playing on Easy so far. I started on Beginner, which may actually be more of a workout than Easy as you do fewer moves, but each for longer stretches. It's a lot of fun. I could only do it 4 times before I was ready for something much less of a workout so went back to DC1's Poker Face. LOL. Yeah, I'm not in the best shape. Yet. I'm looking forward to trying it more.

Did not know that. That kinda justifies the cost in my opinion. Still, I have a ton of achievements on DC2 unfulfilled though...

Haven't had the chance to open the game I got from black friday yet. I'll get to Gangam style eventually.

only 400 points

Crunchewy wasn't kidding - 'Gangnam Style' is quite a workout, even on easy. It's super fast paced. I did beat his score though, mwa ha ha! Love the song and the game.
