Re: Rock Band 2

It won't take you long to want to get the drums and the microphone. I would get the new microphone that has the controller buttons built-in. Makes things a lot less confusing when you have a bunch of people playing.

Re: Rock Band 2

you're way too picky then Maybe they'll hook you up with some Rick Astley soon!

I actually requested "Never Gonna Give You Up" on that website where you put in your code for the 20 free songs.

Re: Rock Band 2

I'm starting to think your taste in music is too boxed in if you still haven't found anything. Either that or your music tastes just sucks.

Either or.

I will say that I do think the RB DLC is missing a couple key genres of rock, that being the hair bands and the grunge bands. So if that is all someone listens too (which isn't bad because that's cool stuff) then I could see where the RB DLC is sparse for them.

Even so, you think this game would have at the very least expanded your horizons. I know it certainly has for me, especially towards classic rock.

I think the problem I have is that people are ruling out bands/songs without even giving it a shot. Even if you may not like Crue, who knows...you may find a song you actually enjoy.

Re: Rock Band 2

So you wouldn't get any tracks off the album?

Maybe Slice of your Pie. The rest were just lame songs made for radio. I'd rather have the entire new album than Dr. Feelgood.

dk seems to be more of a screamo and hardcore guy. And only those genres. But for those genres there really isn't anything.

Re: Rock Band 2

I want to get one of these games this month (RB2 or GHWT) I know that RB2 looks like a forsure purchase but i wam wondering which game has the better instruments since they are compatible both ways or is it too early to tell since neither game instruments have been released

No one has the GH:WT instruments so were not sure on those but there are plenty here with the RB 2 instruments. They could give you impressions. There are also tons of RB2 instrument impressions over at the RB forums.

Or $1.99 is a lot for a song, and I'd much prefer songs that I know I will play over and over again that I love. Fortunately, there are a good fifteen or so songs that I love on the DLC list, but that's about it. Others are tolerable, but not worth $1.99 IMO.

this

or just newer stuff in general

I mean I like some ac/dc but its not worth $2 for the songs Im not familiar with, dont like much rhcp.


Rick Astley would take the franchise to levels of win unreached in video game history.

Cosign. Hair bands would be stupid, but fun, and I guess everyone forgets how popular the grunge bands were back in the 90's. There's a decent representation from the biggies (PJ, AIC, Soundgarden, Nirvana), but they could use a full album or two from them. I'd love "Dirt", "Ten", or "Superunknown". And what happened to "Nevermind" which was supposed to be one of the first album DLCs?

Re: Rock Band 2

Personally I'd love to see more Southern rock DLC (Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Brothers, Marshall Tucker, ZZ Top) and some alt country (Cross Canadian Ragweed, Steve Earle, Uncle Tupelo). There are even some mainstream country acts like Miranda Lambert, Dierks Bentley, and Montgomery Gentry who have some kick *** songs that would be a lot of fun to play. And both Keith Urban and Brad Paisley are damn good guitarists. I think this is an untapped market for Rock Band.
