Not open for further replies.
Nice change of pace I got to admit, but nothing I'll get off hand (second week in a row now). Though Pearl Jam next week is gonna be awesome.
 
Oh yeah! Finally some funk!

Going to pick up "Get the Funk Out Pack 01" and Papa Roach - “Last Resort”

Finally something I want to pick up. Saving my points pays off next week.
 
A week where I am buying pretty much everything. Funk, hell yes. New Pornographers, awesome. More Against me!, alright! Papa Roach...eh, well see about that.
 
A damn fine week in DLC. It's a good send off for me! This will be my last update for the next 3 and a half months. I hope that the DLC in the coming months will kick a lot of ass and I'll be able to come home from basic to some awesome shit.

Nice job keeping the updates rolling. Did you find someone to take over?
 
Average White Band?! HAHA, NICE! Isn't this the song that Clark Kent gets beaten to in the diner scene in Superman? I always wondered what that song was. Might have to buy it just for that memory. =)
 
Any idea how many points Pearl Jam - Ten is going to be? I'm guessing 1600. I just want to make sure that I have the points for that and Peggle.

You'll find the music in Peggle is better.

*rimshot*
 
I just got the Rock Band kick pedal with the splitter today at Gamestop and was wondering if anyone else had tried it out? It's almost like learning from the beginning again trying to figure out how best to use the second kick pedal.
 
[quote name='KaneRobot']Nice job keeping the updates rolling. Did you find someone to take over?[/quote]

Nah I didn't. I imagine who ever wants to do it would just need to tell Linkin or someone what is up.

You have my blessing, KaneRobot, if taking over this thread is something you would like to do, heh heh.
 
Kane, this thread is huge, so if you want to take over that's fine. Make a new thread. If not, I'll try to remember to edit the OP each week.
 
[quote name='DestroVega']Papa Roach is fucking garbage... I was shocked to find out last night during Sportscenter they are still making music.[/QUOTE]

Yeah I do think it's funny that many of these thrap bands that slid onto the scene 10 years ago doing their so-called "hip hop metal" are now doing more mainstream mature stuff. But it still isn't very good.
 
i blind bought last resort...love that song

the song for some reason doesnt sound the same to me... maybe its just that i have the one from rock revolution in my head...

you know, honestly, i thought the same, minus the rock revolution part. something about the singer's voice just doesn't sound as sharp.

I thought the same exact thing. It almost sounds like a cover.

Ok. I've been looking for something to maintain since the HD DVD stuff started winding down anyway, this works. I'll put the new thread up next week when Ten is released.

I was about to purchase the song, but after I heard the preview it sounded way different. Sounded like it like it was recorded again. I didn't purchase it.

I did purchase the funk pack and only got a chance to play the drums. Played it on Medium and Hard. I'm not really good at hard mode, but it seem to be the most fun on drums.

Instant buy on PJ, it will be the first time I've throw in RB in a while, but it will be well worth the wait. They are also offering 3 bonus tracks (Brother, Alive (live), State of Love and Trust (live)) if you pre-order the Ten Deluxe Edition from BB:

So when Ten comes to RB next week does that mean the content is available to owners/players of RB1 or RB2 or just RB2 cause its newer and they want you to own that?
 
[quote name='Arakias']So when Ten comes to RB next week does that mean the content is available to owners/players of RB1 or RB2 or just RB2 cause its newer and they want you to own that?[/QUOTE]

All DLC can be played on either RB1 or RB2
 
They are actually putting Master/Slave on there?

Ha.

Shame though that it's the original versions as I preform the remixed version of Evenflow a bit better than the original.
 
I don't know if this is appropriate to put here, or better suited for the trade thread, but if it isn't, a mod please feel free to delete this and notify me. I figured this thread is the specific userbase that would need this. I just got a replacement 360 after not having one for about 5 months (out of warranty E74, grr) and I picked up a used copy of Rock Band 2 again and I figured I would try to see if the 20 free DLC code worked, and it did. So now I have an extra 20 free DLC code I can trade if any of you need one. I don't know if an AC/DC code would be too much to ask, but either that or MS points so I can download more songs would be great. PM me if interested.

If you used the code already, you can't give it to someone else to use.
 
[quote name='pimpster4183']When is Chinese Democracy the full album going to be released? Axl confirmed it[/quote]

I'm dying for this. This needs to come out stat!
 
[quote name='GamerChris']If you used the code already, you can't give it to someone else to use.[/quote]
I think he's saying he redeemed the code on the back of the manual to get the 20 track code that you enter into the Xbox Live Marketplace.
 
[quote name='Bioshocked360']I think he's saying he redeemed the code on the back of the manual to get the 20 track code that you enter into the Xbox Live Marketplace.[/QUOTE]

right, so you can't then trade that exact same code for someone else's AC/DC code because it's already been used.
 
[quote name='GamerChris']right, so you can't then trade that exact same code for someone else's AC/DC code because it's already been used.[/quote]

You can check the validity of a code without actually redeeming it. Whether that's what he did or not is the question.
 
Sorry about that, I forgot to mention specifically that I redeemed the manual code for the XBLA code, but the XBLA code is unused. I still had my old XBLA code from before my 360 broke. It broke after they took in the email verifications, but before they sent out the codes.
 
Eddie Vedder's voice sounds like somebody's grandmother trying to sing. But at least he's better than Axl, who sounds like somebody's DEAD grandmother ;)

In my humble opinion of course..

I'm glad people like you have no influence on music whatsoever.

Just my opinion of course.

I wouldn't assume that if I were you.

If that's what grandmothers sound like when they sing, then they need to have more record deals.
 
[quote name='Corvin']I can't believe Ten is 18 years old at this point. Where the hell has time gone?[/QUOTE]

Ugh, don't remind me. Today is my 30th birthday, that's disturbing enough.
