Rock Band. More Awesome.

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

Most of them are pretty worth it. Except for Sex Type Thing, which is a cool song, but horrific on drums.

Boy, you weren't joking. Just gave a bit of a look at the list on wikipedia after having a tiny bit of very old knowledge... and LAST TRAIN TO CLARKSVILLE HOLY **** PLEASE TELL ME IT DOESN'T SUCK ASS

EDIT: just got a video of it on youtube and it sounds alright. This is the sort of thing I like... unconventional. Well, I mean, I guess it's conventional in another way, but I mean... with this sort of game, you'd be expecting like metallica and **** ya know

There is so much they can do with it. The format of singing, guitar, and drums is common to so many different kinds of music. They could even have simple acoustic sets or, pause for effect, popular music that wouldn't normally be associated with being played by a rock band. All it takes is a guitar and drums in a song and Rock Band could support it, and yet they haven't strayed far from the "rock" umbrella. Know what I'm saying?

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

The Metallica pack was pretty good, except for Blackened, which I cannot beat for some reason.

But yeah, I understand what you're saying. It would broaden the appeal of the game. Some of the more indie stuff would be great for the acoustic sets - Death Cab comes immediatley to mind.

Also, why haven't they done "In the Air Tonight"? Come on. That'd be fun.

I thought they should do Infected Mushroom's Becoming Insane (the cut version that's only ~4-5 minutes), it has cool Spanish guitar with some electric guitar, cool bass and drums (even though they're synthesized), and fun (though repetitive) singing.

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

Kinda stressed now, here's my story. First my bass pedal broke that was not that big of a deal because well I made a new one using my Real Bass pedal. So I was like lets test it out. I'm playing all fine and dandy then BAM Snare breaks *facepalm* I'm not sure if it's completely broken but every time I hit it I hear and feel a rattle and one hit = 4, I don't know what to do and I can't send it in due to 2 facts.
1) I live in Canada
2) That requires a credit card and 150$ deposit
ALSO to make matters worse my disc as a fairly large scratch in it in which if I don't pick a song within 20seconds of the menu my game crashes. inbefore tl'dr, any reasonable Suggestions?

I'm pretty sure you can live with the 20 second choice.

And the broken drums can still be sent in to EA to get it replaced. There is one in Etobicoke (I found that out when I returned my guitar), and you'll get your replacement in no time.

Send your info to here:

https://www.support.ea.com/rockband

And follow its steps to get your replacement, regardless if you live in Canada (I do too).

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

Becoming Insane would be absurdly fantastic. I don't see it happening, but I will shine a smile that will blind the earth if it happens.

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

I need to hear this "Becoming Insane" because if it is really as good as you guys say it is then it should probably be in the game.

Basically, does anyone have a link to this song?

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

Mal, If you got the NIN pack, how well can you do perfect drug on drums?

Pretty intense, I havent even beaten it yet.

And lol, they wont even preform that song live because they cant drum it.

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

I don't really like NIN, so I didn't get the pack.

HOWEVER

I do like a challenge. I'll probably get it Friday after I get paid.

This is cut a lot, it skips the first few minutes and then skips some stuff in the buildup. I think if this got in the game they should cut it at about the same spot but not skip the stuff omitted in this version.

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

So I start an expert/expert drum/vocal tour yesterday. So of course, my bass pedal decides to snap today, right near the base.

RIP

time to play guitar

Oh ****. This song. I love this song. Heard it a lot when I was in Acapulco over winter break but I never knew what song it was. This would be pretty good.

I've been sick all weekend, so I didn't touch my drums. I've been playing games that don't make me ill. Professor Layton, Dynasty Warriors 6, and Rogue Galaxy.

This weekend bleeewww.

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

I played drums on Live today and got matched up with a pretty good dude on guitar, we GS'd everything we played except for Brainpower (I dropped my stick lol) and we got 2nd on SH on Flirtin' With Disaster.
