    AFI did girl's not grey, right? Guilty pleasure much :P

    Finally picked up the Queen pack, played a bit on guitar, really looking forward to doing some vox on it. Stretch the old vocal chords. :cool:

    That's right they did girl's not grey , that song drove me crazy for ages very awkward strum pattern if i remember :mad:

    Love like winter or the leaving song could be ok from that bunch, medicate was in GH5 and sucked not sure about the other 2 as they are new songs and haven't listened to them much.

    What's the Queen pack like on guitar D4rk? the songs they have in Lego RB were not exactly guitar greats, so I'm thinking that pack could be the same and more fun for vocals than anything else?

    Some of them are tops, brilliant charts, others are a bit, eh... boring. In "You're My Best Friend", you actually play piano for most of it, which is seriously odd. I'll need a bit more hands on. You should definitely pick up "I want it all" though, seriously fun one on guitar.

    forgot to post the the beatles rb dlc for next week 17th Nov.
    Five tracks from the album were featured on the disc, but here's the list of songs joining them on Tuesday:
    • “Fixing A Hole”
    • “She’s Leaving Home”
    • “Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite!”
    • “Within You Without You”
    • “When I’m Sixty-Four”
    • “Lovely Rita”
    • “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)”
    • “A Day In The Life”

    Unlike last month's Abbey Road DLC, every song on this album will be available as singles as well as the part of the whole pack. The price will be 160 MSP per track, or 1,080 MSP for the “Complete The Album Pack”.

    I refuse to buy stuff that tied purely to the beatles game, as much as id love a day in the life :mad:

    Ew, though I appreciate Tom Petty is good, not for me. Then there's that other tat. :eek:


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


    :eek: wft

    Ok Tom Petty but live versions of not even his most famous songs? I hate when they do that :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    According to the website we're getting a little Them Crooked Vultures on the 24th too....
    Our exclusive track, "New Fang" had a definite QOTSA flavor thanks to Homme's vocal - but note that Eastern-style guitar line straight from the Zep bag of tricks, and the mighty power of Grohl's drums ....The track will be available on Xbox 360 on November 17th for $1.99, on Wii on November 24th for $2.00, and on Playstation 3 on December 3rd for $1.99.
    anyone any idea if that's happening in the DLC ghetto township of Pal Wii? It's not that I'm not happy having Peace Sells and Ten to download, but sometimes a guy gets tired of being treated like sewage from a third class curry house's bathroom.


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


    It's not Harmonix's fault you have a wii :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Yes it is! They should have called me on that cold day in december *before* I sent my lackey off to Game to collect my Wii to warn me that they'd only be doing a half arsed job on the Wii, and that while they would only be slightly negligent with american Wii owners they would be treating europeans with absolute contempt. (I thought I was over the whole SDHC thing, but I guess maybe I'm not :) )

    Does that mean we now have all of Nevermind?


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


    Wonder why no album tracks from In Utero :confused:

    Nothing for me in that bunch, finally found my manual for RB2 so i've got my 20 free songs on the way down now, probably a bunch of poo though.


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


    Isn't "A Jagged Gorgeous winter" in that pack? That's a good song.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,552 ✭✭✭Bobalicious93


    Why didn't they just use the album versions of Come As You Are and Lithium? :confused:

    Bit odd having most of Nevermind and then the remaining two songs as live versions instead...

    Hmmmmmmmm now that you mention that, it stirs a vague memory of playing lithium once on twice in guitar hero 5 ahemmm ahemmm ... on my stereo :rolleyes: and reading something later after being disappointed with it being a crap live version that it had something to do with either access to or quality of the master.

    It has Prequel To The Sequel, one of my favourite songs in any rhythm game.

    Chart starts at 1:36

    No it's part of the main game, but yes indeed it is a good one. Played a few of the songs there they aint bad for free songs, Underoath are the only one i've heard of so far i think.

    Has anyone bought the Coheed and Cambria DLC from ages back?

    Not a massive fan but do like those songs, wondered if any one got them and if they where were worth it?

    EDIT: welcome home has to be one of the best songs in RB ever!!!!!!! on every instrument :)


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


    The vocals are like a drill to my cranium *shivers*

    DLC Week of 12/8

    :eek: looks like who ever was talking about the double bass pedal on here earlier in the week in the other thread will have need for it with this batch ;)

    • Slipknot – “Duality”
    • Slipknot – “Psychosocial”
    • Slipknot – “Sulfur”
    • Simon & Garfunkel – “I Am a Rock” +
    • Simon & Garfunkel – “The Sounds of Silence” +
    • Lights Resolve – “Dreaming of Love” * + (available on Xbox 360 and PS3 only)

    (All tracks are original master recordings)

    These tracks will be available for purchase as “Slipknot Pack 01” as well as individual tracks on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 system, and as individual tracks on Wii. Tracks marked with a “+” are also available in the family-friendly LEGO® Rock Band Music Store.

    Slipknot might be a lot of fun to play, ill be checking the charts 1st though and not the greatest of their stuff by a long shot, not that I am a big fan but do enjoy there older stuff for what it is.

    EDIT : I believe the Lights resolve track is ............... FREE


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


    Slipknot and Simon & Garfunkel in the same release?

    They compliment each other well I guess....


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


    Lol yes i thought so too, sounds of silence is a must buy for me though!!!!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,175 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr Moon


    Is there free DLC songs available??

    Should be a sticky with a list of what songs you can get for free if there is!!

    I'm not a big fan of buying DLC, although I do have 400 points left!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    if it's PS3 and Xbox only, is that one of those approved fan-submitted Rockband Network songs?

    Not bad though. Duality is one of the two half decent Slipknot songs, far as I remember. Haven't been to Bruxelles for so very long :o
    Oops, nearly forgot to shake my fist in the general direction of Harmonix HQ

    *crosses fingers for a 'Slipknot and Garfunkel' remix for DJ Hero.... "I am a <--screeee--> Psycho *wikkity wik wik*"

    There's a handfull alright, like 4 or 5 i think, not great and not by band you have heard of but still not bad for freebies, Still Alive by Glados is one you should know from Half Life though. Just go into the music store in game and scroll for the free ones or google them so you know what to look for.
