:rofl:

Its true that those are older songs, I wouldn't go as far as to call them old man rock. Thats ridiculous, good music is timeless. I wouldn't mind some newer songs though. As discussed before, would be great marketing tool for bands. Say their album is coming out Tuesday, they put out a single on DLC to promote the album. It makes so much sense!

i thought that sweet DLC list was a horrible joke, but actually has some credibility on the rockband forums and elsewhere. here's hoping!
 
Is it impossible to get achievements such as 100% Bass Groove (upstrums only) for DLC? I've done it about 5 times now on Teenage Lobotomy and I haven't received the achievement.

I got the 100% Guitar achievement on Interstate Love Song, so I would think the bass should be possible...
 
definitely possible.
ooh.. and i would pay extra for el scorcho (would love tired of sex too, although i could never do the drums). i hope that list is at all true, i would be wasting a lot of money.
 
I think we need more Weezer in general. I'm surprised Island in the Sun hasn't showed up. I want Dope Nose too. That was in Amplitude so Harmonix should already be familiar with the song. IT GETS ME PUMPED!

Interstate Love Song is by far the easiest guitar song in the game. I 100%ed Hard my 2nd playthrough of it, and it I'm a pretty mediocre hard player.

or they could have just jabbed a fork in my eye lol

anyways, I'm still waiting for queen / ac dc / led zepellin
 
[quote name='menikmati']zOMG Sex Type Thing[/QUOTE]

What he said. I remember when that song came out, I was thinking "whoa, this band is going to be awesome."

Then I heard their follow-up singles.
 
[quote name='shieryda']Game needs moar Tool.[/quote]

I keep thinking Tool would be fucking perfect for Rockband...then I realize that I play the drums, and that would kill me.

The "Undertow" album wouldn't be all that bad. I still just can't get over how much better the dlc is for this game compared to both GH games.
 
[quote name='CaseyRyback']I really hope Hysteria is Leppard and that we get more from them and other bands from the 80's. I want some hair metal so bad.[/QUOTE]

Boo-Urns! Muse FTW!
 
Here's some more from that list:

[quote name='Kotaku']
Nirvana:

Breed
Come As you Are
Lithium
Lounge Act
On a Plain
Polly
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Stay Away
Territorial Pissings
Something in the Way[/QUOTE]
 
Some of you may already know, but thy're starting to sell the drums seperately in store now. I saw a pile of the drums at Wal Mart for $79.82.

It was the one in O Fallon MO on Highway K.
 
[quote name='slickkill77']Please let hysteria be Muse.[/QUOTE]
Whoa I didn't catch that at first glance on the list. They opened with it at their concert in SF last April.
 
From what I have read the Guitar Hero III guitar for XBOX 360 can be used with Rockband. Is that still the case?

Also if I don't have enough folks to play the full Rockband game, but just have the Guitar from GH III, can I still have fun? Does the computer play the rest of the instruments or does it automatically make you fail all the songs because it doesn't see the other instruments playing?

yes, the wired and wireless gh controllers work with rockband.

there is solo tour and solo quick play for jamming by your self. its still fun.
 
fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!

I finally for the first time ever passed the guitar solo snare drum roll on expert drums for Don't Fear the Reaper only to get really nervous and choke during the outro.

I can't pass the snare roll + base pedal madness during the guitar solo anymore :cry:.

Ugh I hate this song now. I got the hang of the snare drum roll portion but I for some reason I cannot find a rhythm to the bass pedal part. Sometimes I will get it going but then out of no where I will go offbeat and never return to being on rhythm.
 
I decided to give Expert vocals a try while I waited for a friend to get online (so we could get the Rock Band online achievements). Turns out, he never showed up and I went through the entire tour in one sitting.

The only song I had a problem with was Mississippi Queen, oddly enough, and I barely missed one phrase on Flirtin' With Disaster. I checked the leaderboards and I was in the top 90-something in the world! I may go back sometime later and try to 100% that song for the achievement, but after these past few hours I don't think I'll be able to talk/sing for a while. I definitely feel like I should get the Endless Setlist achievement for doing that, as well. :lol:

That song and Sabotage annoy the hell out of me on vocals on hard/expert.
 
[quote name='slickkill77']Please let hysteria be Def Leppard.[/quote]

Fixed! It's one of the all time great metal ballads and each instrument really shines - it would be perfect for Rock Band.
 
Maybe they'll release a Hysteria pack with the Def Leppard song, the Muse song, and...um...something from the Human League album with that name?
 
Got my OXM disk from yukine in the mail yesterday and it's out in the mail right now to the last stop on this train before it pulls into Sp00ge station.

That sounds gross.

Dave,

Who gets it after spOOge? I dont know where the list is... I am still trying to get that disk
 
It's Sp00ge's disk, so he represents the disk returning to its owner. I don't know that he'll want to send it back out again. You guys can start your own train.

I sent him a PM asking if he was willing to continue the train.. Hopefully he is in a good mood :)
 
Is he the only one that has it? How much is OXM, 10 bucks? I'll buy one and pass it out after.



And I'm glad I bought a 4000 points card, even though I only got 8 bucks off on it. I'm going to need all of them by the looks of things.
 
Holy shit.. Tuesday's lineup confirmed:

Sex Type Thing/STP

Why Do You Love Me/Garbage

Sex Type Thing AND El Scorcho next Tuesday. I'll pick up WDYLM as well.

I mean, seriously. Is there a way I can just direct deposit my check to Harmonix?
