Re: Rock Band 2

Yup that answers some like if they were going to be for RB 1 people. People that buy it used will end up screwed and missing them.

There seems to be a lot more blank spaces in songs than expected. The known part of Spirit in the Sky is actually on the bass,I always thought it was on guitar. That happend to me with Radar Love in GH 80's too.

I'll just edit this in.

Another video showing the menus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnAuOoOQXOM

That person got a few other games early too,surely he must work for Gamestop. *coughpircoughate*

Thgis guy is posting chart videos of all the songs. I'm not going to post direct links to videos in case some would rather wait until they get the game.

I may watch a few. Just saw Panic Attack and certainly won't be passing that solo. When I was listening to it in my car, I actually thought it'd be worse but I forget alot of that is the keyboard.

Only thing I really want to see is Psycho Killer on bass.

That's it...

Any Way You Want It will be amazingly fun to play on guitar.

The solos are tough but not enough to fail you because they aren't long enough.

I will never be able to play those solos. But looks awesome.

That looks tough but to me certainly wasn't the hardest song in the game like HMX was claiming.

I'm surprised the ending was a big rock ending. I was expecting some Misirlou type ending.

Re: Rock Band 2

I still can only get through one of the tier 9 songs on expert. I just can't move my fingers that fast for those fast solos.

Brush up on your GH2 skills. That has helped me immensely.

Quoted for Truth, dude. GH2 is a great trainer for getting your plastic guitar chops back. And it's still loads of fun, too. They charted that game really well.


For everyone else, I'll be sending you guys invites soon, in preparation for Rock Band 2. I prefer to play drums, but I'll switch instruments for the band's needs if necessary.

Re: Rock Band 2

went all over today looking for a place that had this early and no luck.

I can do guitar or bass with the OS band. We need to think of a cool name too.

Re: Rock Band 2

...so according to a Youtube video of the track from the game (the link Eli posted), Down With The Sickness is for all intents and purposes uncensored. Amazing.

Whoa, uncensored?

Can they go back in and give me the uncensored version of "Who Are You?" then? LOL

Well, like they took out the bad curse words, but the whole part where the singer is yelling at his mother is still there. I was expecting that part to either be chopped out completely (i.e. the radio edit of the song) or for the vocals to be replaced by an epic-yet-out-of-place tambourine solo.

Re: Rock Band 2

Glad to see there is a post here about this. I've been over on the offical RB forums, and it's like a high school pep rally over there. The amount of crap they let people say on there to each other is just amazing...anyway....

I'm once again greatly disappointed that it's out on torrents 5 days before release, but we all must wait till Sunday (wtf came up with Sunday anyway?). It's really sad how they just make it worse for legitimate people who try to support them. I guess I shouldn't be surprised though, the whole DRM thing punishes paying customers too, not the illegal versions.

Granted it only is a few more days, but its extremely frustrating when once again all the stores have the game, but aren't allowed to sell it. I really wish harmonix wouldn't have gotten into bed with EA. They seem to be the worst about street dates.....I mean seriously....can you imagine this in the past? Someone creates a bunch of furniture to sell, or has a bunch of livestock to sell off for their livelihood, but they go up to the auctioneer....now don't sell these for another week. It's just ludicrous how things have gotten. You have a product that paying customers are willing and excited to purchase, yet you decline to sell it to them until a set day....I don't know how they came up with this nonsense, but it really is laughable. It inspires feelings of resentment.

I'm glad at least some people got the game & are at least sharing some highlights. I was hoping there was more "where did you get it" info in this thread. I called best buy, software ect, fye, and circuit city here in Utah, everyone has it, but no one will sell it. It all comes down to the wretched computer saying "don't sell to this date"...how I miss compu usa...no more early releases now.

Sorry for the rant. It gets harder and harder every major release I'm excited for, and I end up seeing people playing pirated copies on ustream ect. I've made it a point to not pirate any games, so it just makes it harder and harder every time you see dishonesty being rewarded, and paying customers slighted. It gets even harder also when publishers consistently have the games out to the retailers almost a week in advanced just sitting there.
