    +1 on the sticky idea.
    Maybe include GH in there too, i know it's DLC is piss poor by comparison but at the same time, it still fits in with the genre. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,901 ✭✭✭Twilightning


    Maybe a separate thread would do Guitar Hero more justice!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,599 ✭✭✭James Howlett


    This is a good idea, I do like it.

    Bring Me to Life - Evanescence
    I actually like this, good stuff.

    I'm terribly excited about Green Day. I'm not sure if they deserve a full game like the Beatles but they have enough good music for a decent download pack/ some-sort-of-story-campaign-single-player/band-player-type-game-thing.

    Basket Case.....


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Spinal tap is the only thing from that list that I'll be touching with a barge poll... Evanescence... *shudders*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 545 ✭✭✭Greyjoy


    I can't understand why they didn't include some 'classic' Spinal Tap into the bundle to sweeten the deal with the new tracks. Ah well, hopefully it'll mean we'll get tracks from the film or 'Break Like the Wind' down the pipeline.

    I've always been a fan of Evanescence, although I would have used a different choice of songs than Weight of the World and Call Me When You're Sober. Probably Sweet Sacrifice and Going Under instead. Ah well, I'm still chuffed with Bring Me to Life. :D

    Gonna be fun to play on drums.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭cedomination


    I like Green Day but I don't think they'd be good in RB,especially not the new ones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,602 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven

    Older stuff, like The Grouch would work. :D
    "I was a young boy that had big plaaaaans, now i'm just another sh*tty old maaaaan"

    Hrm, that kinda sounds like me :(
    Fun tune though! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,901 ✭✭✭Twilightning


    Turned on my 360 just a few minutes ago and still no Evanescence! Blasphemy!


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    your 360 is probably depressed by the fact that it's going to have to play such tripe, and is therefore hiding it from you

    I laughed.
    Sorry, but once Amy Lee destroyed Seether's "Broken", i lost all interest.

    I just got my xbox back,just thought that was worth mentioning :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,901 ✭✭✭Twilightning


    Finally there when I checked this morning! Not too hard on guitar, gold starred Bring Me to Life on my first try. Weight of the World had some tricky chord switches in it, though! I'll have to work on those.

    Gonna play them on drums later.

    I'm waiting for the Rock Band Unplugged songs to become available for download, dammit! Really wanna play Would? by Alice in Chains and Less Talk More Rokk by Freezepop, which was a blast in GHII. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,126 ✭✭✭✭calex71


    Would? by Alice in Chains


    Oooooooohhhhh I want that !

    They're saving that for Guitar Hero: Emolicious.
    Limited edition comes with Guitar Hero black and white checkered wristbands, GH guide to sXe, and Guitar Hero razorblades...

    ... just in case of emergency and all that.

    I don't know how out of place i would sitting down while using the RB controller though. I've tried doing it for the first part of Free Bird on GHII. It didn't feel right.

    The sad thing is I wouldn't put it past Activision making a game exactly like that. They'd make bloody millions.

    They can even have GH: Legends Of Emo! Guest starring Finch and Good Charlotte. Think of the awards!

    100G! So Emo, you could cry!

    The clacking helps me keep in time and my whammy bar just hangs down on my guitar, it still works grand if I hold it inbetween my fingers while I play. :D

    The GHIII Les Paul was the best one i had once i applied the manual fix to it, then the strum bar went on it and that was that.

    I then went through the X-Plorer, and 1 GHWT guitar. I'm not even that great on RB expert, but for someone who is considered a lightweight RB expert guitarist, i end up going through enough of the damn controllers lately. :(

    Im using the gibson explorer at the minute , but as im a lefty it hangs down in the way :mad:

    I was using blue tac to keep it in place but this warm weather has softened the blue tac rendering it usless :mad:

    Any tips :confused:

    That's a shame! What I seem to be going through right now are bass pedals. I broke my last one and asked HMV if I could get a replacement one, but they gave me a replacement kit instead. xD Only downside is I have to carry the old kit into town and bring the new one home. My new pedal just cracked today, so I'm gonna ring them up tomorrow and get another replacement. :P I'll reinforce the next pedal though.

    Roll on colder weather then i guess, so i can stop adjusting the bar during sustains that are long enough :P
    Or till i can afford a posh new RB beetles gretsch guiter with its sturdy lefty friendly bar.

    Awwwww was hoping for much better from the warped tour pack :mad:
    was hoping for "i'm made of wax larry , what are you made of?" by A day to remember :(

    Not my favorite bad religion song either by any means.

    Gotta agree there, those packs are bloody terrible.

    I want some decent prog stuff at some stage, Nice mixture, some Genesis, Marillion (but please, not Kayleigh!), Dream Theater. C'mon, we can only go so far with Moving Pictures!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,901 ✭✭✭Twilightning


    They should have released all of Painkiller by Judas Priest instead of Screaming for Vengeance. I love Screaming for Vengeance, don't get me wrong, but Painkiller would have been alot more challenging. Songs like Metal Meltdown, All Guns Blazing and A Touch of Evil would have been awesome.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 493 ✭✭thealltimelow


    Maroon 5 01 Pack
    • Little of Your Time - Maroon 5

    Maroon 5... Are you kidding me? Did someone let the developers' daughters in charge of the DLC choices? D4RK ONION is not happy, no he is not!

    When did The Warped Tour go from awesome pop-punk to christian metalcore?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,602 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven


    Both those packs are fairly weak to be honest. There are much better Foreigner songs out there too.

    An E.L.O. pack would be class. E-e-e-vil woman!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,602 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven


    I could think of better ELO songs, Rockaria! being one of them. :D
    Four little diamonds would also be fun too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 100 ✭✭ParalysedBeaver


    Mr. Blue Sky would be a definite buy


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    See, there you have it, 4 E.L.O songs, that's a pack! I should work for harmonix's DLC division :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,045 ✭✭✭Rev. Kitchen


    Got a message saying there is a competition on and that if you play the Maroon 5 songs and get the highest score you get them for free or something along those lines ......I thought ah no ...i wouldnt even take them for free.

    This is even better than the thrash pack (which funnily only had one thrash song)


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Shh, don't ruin the moment... Let us simply bask in Harmonix's glory for a while... :D
