You can tell the DLC is popular.
Every Monday when they announce the new ones at rockband.com the servers get flooded with people F5ing to see the announcement.
In fact this week it was so bad they shut down the site to make a new server to handle the traffic.
But about this month so far. I am a little disappointed. Luckily March looks way better with some hard thrash, some good singles, some Trent Reznor, and some good ol' Metal.
I have this game, but on PS2. Man I need to buy a 360! D:
When Rock Band is released in PAL, will all of the NTSC DLC be available from the start, or will we go through them slowly adding DLC at a steady rate 4 or 5 months behind the US?

Well, there's 3 options I'm thinking.
1. Your option. The least likely.
2. It will all be available. The most likely.
3. All the songs will be different in-game and DLC to match the different regions. (Which is rumor I heard and is even less likely).
holy shit. possible leak of future songs found in a song pack. highlights of the list are as follows:
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction - The Rolling Stones
Brown Sugar - The Rolling Stones
El Scorcho - Weezer (fucking great because Lospy and i were just talking about it a few days ago)
Pinball Wizard - The Who
Sex Type Thing - Stone Temple Pilots
Still Alive - Portal? (it's possible. EA distributed Orange Box)
Thrasher - Neil Young? or some shitty metal band (i can only hope that it's Young, but seeing as how the Neil Young song doesn't have any drums, it'll probably be the shitty metal band.)
Zero - The Smashing Pumpkins (:OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO)
no word though on what might be master or not. but, considering all the bands except for the artist that does Thrasher have master tracks in the game, it's safe to assume that they will be masters.

nevermind, it's the shitty metal band. it's part of the thrash pack in march.
that sucks.
Still Alive - Portal? (it's possible. EA distributed Orange Box)
OMFG REALLY? I swear Ill pay $30 for that single track
I broke the rules and Im proud/Am I hardcore or what?
[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[ ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]
It seems those songs in the leak are real.
Tuesday's songs are as follows...
Sex Type Thing - Stone Temple Pilots
El Scorcho - Weezer
Why Do You Love Me - Garbage
All Masters.
Well, Sex Type Thing and El Scorcho almost make up for the crappy month February has been.
Oh, the announcement came early due to Monday being President's Day.
It seems today's El Scorcho download is the easiest Guitar song on Expert... ever.
Easier then I Love Rock and Roll from the first ever Guitar Hero game.
Well, Weezer isn't known for their riffs.

FUCKING A!

How could you play that, I don't even think it has guitars in it. Did they start releasing songs for individual instruments now?

It's got incredible vocals, good drums, and some fun guitar.
But mostly the vocals will be the best.
Looks like those DLC Files are a lot more true then we thought.

Yeah, any reason I had before not to buy Rock Band is now null.
SON OF BITCH AMERICAN
AMERICAN IS PIG
DO YOU WANT A HAMBURGER? DO YOU WANT A PIZZA?
Alright, from now on Rock Band Song Announcements are on Fridays.
Anywho, the Nine Inch Nails pack that was meant for the third week in March is now coming out this Tuesday.
That's right, the February 26th DLC will in fact be...
The Collector
March of the Pigs
The Perfect Drug
All Masters.
Which raises speculation of what the third week in March will be... an album?

I'm gonna buy Rock Band just for Still Alive.
KILL ALL SONS A BITCHES.
Ya, Rock Band is coming out for Wii, its pretty sweet. You actually forgot the Thrash Pack, should come out in the near future.
Due to complaints about my last signature having the incorrect use of "there" I am now changing it to fuck you.
Well, it seems that the first week of March. (3/4) is NOT a Thrash Pack. But rather 6 Grateful Dead songs.
All Master Tracks they are:
Casey Jones
Truckin'
Sugar Magnolia
China Cat Sunflower
Franklin's Tower
I Need a Miracle
You can get each single song for 160 Points as usual or get all six for the price of five for 800 Points.
Also note, the schedule in the March OXM is not to be taken seriously.
Which explains the Thrash Pack not coming out this week and the NIN pack coming out early.
For all we know, the Thrash Pack may not even exist.
I haven't updated this in like forever.
The 3/11 Pack is not three classic rock singles but rather...
Shockwave by Black Tide
Crushcrushcrush by Paramore
Beethoven's Cunt by Serj Tankian
They are currently 99 cents or 80 MS Points BUT FOR A LIMITED TIME!
While today we got the Earache Thrash Pack (the stuff promised for March 4th)
Blinded by Fear by At the Gates
D.O.A. by The Haunted
Thrasher by Evile
440 Points for whole pack, 160 for each song.
All six of these are Master Tracks.
Forget the Dragonforce song in GH3. This is the hardest song ever on Guitar in any game.
Crazy strumming combined with fucked up solos, and this is off of today's pack.

Not to mention so much better than TTFAF.
The thrash pack owns.

that strumming actually looks quite easy.
but yeah, the solo looks stupid.
i'm a really fast strummer, so i'll be able to do that hopefully.
