Re: Rock Band 2

Man the Jimi pack is unreal, anyone who hasn't had a chance should play some if you love guitar.

Re: Rock Band 2

Meant to Live is on my radar. Love the song, but will I play it over and over?

Christian rock bands announced on Good Friday. Hilarious.

By the way, the Jimi Hendrix stuff is must-own, simply incredible.

Re: Rock Band 2

What the hell is wrong with people online? Does playing this game online for more than 5 days in a row give them some sort of idiot disease that also makes them pick the same 3 songs over and over? It went so well (mostly) the first free weekend but this is just...

And no wonder there's no vocalists,try shutting up while they're trying to sing and maybe they'll keep playing with you.

Oh and where'd all the songs go? I mean there's 84 on disc right? Was there some special version that only has Almost Easy,Painkiller and Down with the Sickness on it?

The people I played Band Hero with were nice at least,all but one anyway.

I'm right there with you. To me, this is the least enjoyable thing about playing online. Those songs are played to death, and seemingly 75% of people don't have ANY DLC, not even the free stuff.

Send me a friend request and we can rock sometime. What is your instrument of choice? I can do either drums or guitar. I need to get a wireless adapter (just moved and can't do a wired connection anymore) but I should have one in the next few days or so. I have a bunch of DLC and would be happy to play something other than Down With the Sickness, Almost Easy or Painkiller.

Re: Rock Band 2

I only had this weekend cause it was free. A good reminder of why I don't normally play online and why it's not really worth paying for.

Eventually found some decent people to play with. Unfortuantly with the first 2 I was playing on vox and that can only go on so long without a break,also I think I was making it hard for them because they were on easy/medium. (The speed on all instruments goes by the highest difficulty right? I stuck to hard.) The second bunch I was playing expert bass and they were on expert too but the batteries in my Grestch started dying.

Back to the fun stuff...

The band formally known as Vagiant,then Vagiant (Boston) and now Tijuana Sweetheart has a song up on RBN. It's been up for almost 2 weeks,I just missed it somehow.

Well, let me know if you end up getting Live gold again.

With regards to note scrolling, if you're playing on the same console, the speed will adjust to the slowest speed. Online it will display your speed, and whoever you're playing with will have the notes scroll at your speed. So if I was on easy and you were on expert, I'd see easy speed on my screen and you'd see expert speed on yours.

Re: Rock Band 2

Another Rock Band-related question for you guys. When I send my broken XBox into Microsoft then receive a different 360 in return, do I have to individually re-download all my paid musical content?

I mean, I know I would not have to pay for it again, but do I have to individually go into each song file and select "re-download"?

No, you don't send in your hard drive so the files will physical still be there. And your licenses will automatically be transfered to the new xbox by MS.

Re: Rock Band 2

I had to redownload the licenses myself when I got my xbox replaced.

Really? That state that they do and they have done it successfully 3 times for me.

Re: Rock Band 2

All of my songs were grayed out and I couldn't play them until I did that.

Yes, same here. I believe the note said it would transfer my Profile info but I thought it mentioned the re-downloading thing in regards to dl's I paid for (left letter in another city so cannot clarify). That's why I was wondering if there was a workaround I was missing or if I literally had to redownload each song one. . .by one. . .by one.

Thanks for the feedback.
