Is it worth getting the bass?

Any guitar controller that you use can function as the bass or rhythm/lead guitar. Just select BASS from the instrument list. However, you cannot do a Solo Tour playing bass.

Re: Harmonix's Rock Band now with Impressions

I've been watching videos on YouTube to see how the charts are for songs I might be interested in downloading. I think there are a couple of people on there that have every song up.

Downloaded Limelight last night. Pretty fun, I just wish the Rush songs were master tracks.

Couldn't agree more. Geddy's vocals are very hard to cover. And while the covered verions of the Rush songs in both GH and RB are not necessarily "painful on the ear drums", they're just not Rush.

So many covered versions of Rush's material use vocal tracks that are sped up a tad. Alas....we have the chipmunk effect. At least what we hear in GH and RB are the vocalist's natural pipes....or so I think.

Seriously, why no masters? Its just not the same.
All Pro Football gets Tom Sawyer (or something like it) but a music game gets a cover?

The songs are amazing! On guitar on expert, some of them are hardest songs that we have on rock band. The sound is amazing, very clear, and when rocking out, it just feels right. Any dead fans need to pick this up.

The pack is awesome!!!! All master tracks and they sound wonderful. Guitar is really fun, not like any other rock band songs. The drums are also awesome.

Anyone who has Rock Band should download this pack.

Re: Harmonix's Rock Band now with Impressions

If you download the songs, it saves onto your 360, and not your account, right?

As in, if I downloaded songs to my gamertag/Harddrive, can I use the songs on another Xbox with my harddrive, or does it have to be mine?

Re: Harmonix's Rock Band now with Impressions

I have two different 360's (don't ask....long story) and I share the HD by transporting it back and forth between the consoles and all my DLC is available on both machines.

Now I'm not sure if you are forced to use the same Gamertag in order to have access to the content. I always use the same one, however.

I don't even like the Dead and I think this pack is a blast.

Yes, you need to be signed in to that profile.

Hm, I must've been doing something wrong when I tried before then. Could've sworn the Police songs I downloaded wouldn't show up on my friend's 360, despite using the HD I saved the songs on and my gamertag.

I'll have to try again.

I deleted part of my post by accident. It was a warning. lol

Basically, I had the very same problem. Less than half of my DLC showed up on my friend's 360. Nothing worked. Went back the next day, and they all showed up. Then it happened again a week later. No problems since and that was the only system it happened with.

No idea what caused it all and I didn't do anything different. I thought it had something to do with not being plugged into XBL (my friend doesn't have broadband), but since it worked eventually, I don't know. Just some screwy bug I guess.
