There's a rumor that Rock Band is coming to Europe in May.

Keep your fingers crossed Europeans.

[Burnzoid]

I'm not getting because I have no friends who are willing to come over and play it with me.

And it heard it sucks donkey balls single player.

You really suck as a troll.
But then I remember a troll is someone who doesn't put effort in their insults.

And you don't put any effort... so that leads me to one conclusion.

I'm not insulting the game. I heard it's great multiplayer when you have three other people to come and play it with you, but rubbish online and on single player. And seeing as my mates are not gamers, they won't come play.

Even though I haven't played it, it just sounds like Guitar Hero single player with different songs and single insturments, nothing really special.

However replying to your post, you sounded more like a troll trying to piss me off. And to counter attack that, I will prove your point that I AM a sucky troll.

You're a Jew lol.

Hell I'd fuck the drum set if it had a pussy.

I'm Mendou, I try hard to be like Gendo but I fail miserably to the point where the actual Gendo tells me to stop being a douche but I don't listen and continue because I have A.D.D. and Aspergers.

See, I can be mean as well.

That's where it's great having three brothers in the house.

[BatDan]

The singleplayer isn't that bad actually. Consider it practice before actually going to play with friends.

[BatDan]

Week of April 15th:
Classic Rock Pack with:
Call Me - Blondie
Simple Man - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Message in a Bottle - The Police

[Deadly-Shadow]

I don't know about you, but I think they should avoid using songs that were already used in Guitar Hero I & II, with the exception of a few songs that have to be in Rock Band.

My little brother has no interest in music games and my big brother has no interest as well.

I plan to try to play the bass and vocals at the same time.

[BatDan]

A fourth song is being released tomorrow.

But this is a special release, it's the brand new spankin single from Motley Crue. Before it hits shelves or radio.

Saints of Los Angeles - Motley Crue (Master)

I think this is pretty cool. There was that rumor Metallica was releasing their newest single to Rock Band but we didn't know if it was true. Now we know...

Guitar and vocals is more badass. It's definitely a fun thing to do if you can find something to use as a mic-stand. Just make sure you do a song you know the words/tune to, otherwise it'll be practically impossible.

When I do it, I go Guitar: Expert and Vocals: Medium. For higher-difficulty vocals, I feel like you have to be more robotic and it's less fun.

[BatDan]

OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT!

The first Rock Band full album is announced and coming Tuesday.

Judas Priest's Screaming for Vengeance album will be avaliable for $15.

The songs are as follows:
The Hellion/Electric Eye
Riding on the Wind
Bloodstone
(Take These) Chains
Pain and Pleasure
Screaming for Vengeance
You've Got Another Thing Comin'
Fever
Devil's Child

HELL! YES!

[MEPHILIS1337]

Thrasher is the hardest downloadable song ever......
It makes Ride the lighting look easy.....

[simon]

what a shit album release.

Next month will be The Cars Eponymous album and June will bring us The Pixies Doolittle.

With Who's Next by The Who still on the horizon.

[cornbin]

It's stupid too release a certain album. They should make it a "Best Of" album from some band then I'd buy it.

I'm also surprised that there hasn't been any AC/DC DLC. Everyone knows at least 1 song.

[BatDan]

This week we saw three ... interesting songs.

Zero by Smashing Pumpkins
Red Tandy by Mother Hips
Time-Sick Son of a Grizzly Bear also by Mother Hips

Hopefully we'll see some awesome stuff annoucned tomorrow and released next week.

I guess I was wrong about the awesome.

This Tuesday: Scene Pack with:
This Ain't a Scene, It's An Arms Race - Fall Out Boy
Date With the Night - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
It Hurts - Angels and Airwaves

On May 8th Guitar Hero 3 (surprisingly) is getting a Muse pack with:
Stockholm Syndrome
Exopolitics
Super Massive Black Hole

Also, if you reserve the new Disturbed Album from Best Buy and only Best Buy. You'll get two Disturbed songs for Rock Band.
Hopefully like the OXM disc Harmonix will eventually release the songs making it possible for everyone to get them and not the two Disturbed fans who play the game.

GUITAR HERO MUSE PACK WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[BatDan]

Muse pack came out yesterday.
The Guitar Hero community is disappointed.

However, the Rock Band community is more disappointed in today's new content announcement.

May 13th:
Hanging on the Telephone - Blondie
Train in Vain - The Clash
Kool Thing - Sonic Youth

Comments: More Blondie, EVEN MORE CLASH, and Sonic Youth's debut... problem is it's the same annoying piece of shit song from GH3 that everyone hates.

[simon]

BatDan hasn't had chance to update the thread.

Well it seems the Europeans are angry that the American community have got their own European song tracks before themselves, why would they do this?

May 20th:
Blur - Beetlebum
Die Toten Hosen - Hier Kommt Alex
H-Block X - Countdown To Insanity
Juli - Perfekte Welle
Les Wampas - Manu Chao
Muse - Hysteria
Oasis - Rock N Roll Star

Tokio Hotel - Monsoon

Each track is 160 MS Points.

The Cars - All Mixed Up
The Cars - Bye Bye Love
The Cars - Don't Cha Stop
The Cars - Good Times Roll
The Cars - I'm in Touch with Your World
The Cars - Just What I Needed
The Cars - Moving in Stereo
The Cars - My Best Friend's Girl
The Cars - You're All I've Got Tonight

The entire album is available for 1,200 MS Points, and there is the second album released. Only Pixies, The Who and Nirvana left.

Beetlbum - Blur (cover)
Countdown to Insanity - H-BlockX
Hier Kommt Alex - Die Toten Hosen (already in GH3, but it'd be a bitch on vocals since it's in German)
Hysteria - Muse (FUCK YES)
Manu Chao - Les Wampas (another song that's hard to sing due to being in another language)
Monsoon - Tokio Hotel
New Wave - Pleymo (Another hard singing song)
Perfect Welle - Juli

Next Week has been announced early for some reason.
The Cars Debut Album (The Cars)

Seriously. That's fucking scary.

Also, hooray for Hysteria.

Perfekt Welle is surprisingly catchy, unfortunately.

[BatDan]

Couple of notes:

You can use this thread as a Wishlist thread for Rock Band DLC as well but don't overdue it.

Also, I'll be updating on Guitar Hero DLC.
Which means...
