The Rock Band Thread

[Rumpy]

Why don't they let you pick different difficulty levels for each song in a set list? It's annoying as hell. I can rock my way through a bunch of songs on Hard now, but there is still a lot that I get destroyed on. A lot of songs are boring on Medium, I need some fucking leeway here.

[Josh]

I wish you could pick per song too!

[ChaoofNee]

WTF Pat Benatar, why can't we get Invincible or Love is a Battlefield.

[Dipstick]

Yep.

"Visions" is easily the worst song ever to appear in a rhythm game.

It's only in there because they have a chick singer (HOW NOVEL) and the band is friends with the developers.

That song has a female vocalist? Really? I figured it was more likely to be a broken carburetor, if anything. They probably included it because they figured they were short on difficult songs, but I can't think of anyone who actually enjoys playing this.

And yes, this song really is the worst song to ever appear in any music-rhythm game. Good job Harmonix.

I lost so many fans on the endless setlist due to that fucking song.

I'm getting on to rock the Thin Lizzy songs and many more if anyone wants to join in on the fun.

Sorry buddy, I only play the No Doubt DLC.

As an extra incentive for those who'll be picking up the March 24 re-release of Pearl Jam's album, Ten, each copy purchased from Best Buy stores will come with a redemption code to download three Rock Band tracks. Both of the deluxe album editions (including the $125 Super Deluxe Edition) will allow for a free download of Pearl Jam's "Brother," "Alive" and "State of Love & Trust" RB DLC from either the XBLM or PSN. Remember, those three songs -- as well as the entire Ten album -- are headed to the Rock Band Music Store sometime this March.

Our fingers are crossed in hopes that Best Buy can deliver the codes in a timely manner, because its execution of the last Rock Band promotion it held was flaky at best.

Uh, Alive is already in the game. Is it a live version or something?

[Korly]

Maybe it's remastered
