The Who 12 pack next week yes yes yes yes yes

Well... there goes my next paycheck...

In other news, I finally managed to pass Dead on Arrival, drums. Now I'm stuck on Don't Fear the Reaper. A mental block on the ending parts is really messing me up. But, on a positive note, I'm happy that Foreplay/Longtime didn't give me any trouble on Expert. Passed it first try, somehow, and I'm semi close to getting a 5 star on it.

Still working on Conquering the world, but I'm only about half way done with that. My partner gets really bored of it quickly and really hates to play a lot now.

He'll come around. A friend of mine one day who didn't like to play as much as he used to just said, "Alright. Let's do the Endless Setlist." I was like Wooo!

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

>_> Probably. But I just like the Stratosphere one, their other songs are pretty gay.

So 'cause of Rock Band I've been listening some more (white) rock music, and I noticed a song by Led Zeppelin: Stairway to Heaven, ever coming to Rock Band? D:

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

too bad there going to fall behind if they dont start developement on a RB2 ... download content only goes so far.. with Guitar Hero: World Tour's promise of drums that are more realistic[6 pads], a microphone, and online things that werent included in RB [such as BvB and online band career]. not to mention BEING ABLE TO MAKE YOUR OWN MUSIC! rockbands going to be blown out of the water...

and what is going to be my second favorite thing about it.... you can play any instrument from the same profile, instead of having to remake your profile between instruments... which really doesnt make sence... if i was a good guitar player. and i started playing drums, who says i couldnt use some gig money from my guitar to get a better drum kit?

but ofcoarse my favorite thing about the new guitar hero is the music recording... that opens up ALOT of doors.. cant wait to see it >.<


my only hope is that the guitar hero guitar will be more like the rockband one in the sence that the buttons are flush with the neck.. makes it feel more natural


but until then, i guess im going to keep on trying to get better at rockband =/

first of all no you just get five pads and rock band gets seven

second of all, rock band 2 has all of that

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

Hey, guys, I've never hooked up my LAN to my 360, but when I do, I have a feeling I'm going to buy all of the DLC.

So I ask, how is purchase done? Do I just put in a credit card number right there in the game, or is there some sort of "buying points" step that must come before (like how downloading things on Wii works)? As a slightly aside sort of question, is it hard to get setup onto live?

ps glad to hear what tokzic said above about playing any instrument on a single profile... I hated having to make 3 separate characters (each with a different name... I think I had to name one of them "afrombean" because I had already used "Afrobean" and "Chris" on the others).

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

Buy ms points. You can do it through the 360 but they cost more. If you don't want to go to any gameshop that sells them for any reason you can buy points online at https://www.gamepointsnow.com

They'll email you the code as soon as your card clears. A lot faster and easier. You redeem the code in 360 live tab on your console as you probs already know.

Also you may want to buy songs through the 360 marketplace tab opposed to through the shop on Rockband. The difference being you can play whilst they download. If you do it in the shop on Rockband you have to wait for the songs to download before doing anything else. Through marketplace you can set up a download que and play while they download.

And in the end, RB2 will be released BEFORE GH: WT. Therefore, Harmonix will be the ones with the original ideas and GH would look like the copiers.

They're already looking like copiers for taking the drum and vocals addition, even in a game which is still holding the name "Guitar Hero".

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

Hey good job on the gold star Seth

Oh thanks I was really pleased.

[Tokzic]

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

yay seth~

speaking of gold stars i went to finally go and pick up some more today

I went to do Ballroom Blitz. I had the 5GS before the solo even kicked in. So I was like "whoo i win". Then the offbeat ****ing bass notes at the end came in and I lost my groove and I FAILED ON THE VERY LAST CRASH BECAUSE I HIT BLUE INSTEAD OF GREEN ASDLFKDLSJFLKDSNAFLA

but at least it's apparently one i can pick up easily, seeing as the song was only 3/4 done when i had the 5GS

Re: RockBand. More Awesome.

I hate my friends. I bought The Who pack and I'm like CMON, WHO!!! But they all said crap like "No, The Who sucks, let's play Beethoven's C***, Welcome Home, Shockwave, etc SONGS WE PLAY LIKE EVERY 3 SONGS. I actually hate those songs now because they pick them so much. >=(

I want to play with someone who wants to play The Who songs, I love Keith Moon to death! The drumming is so fun.

(Plus in Player Match no one ever has DLC, so I'm stuck with 200 downloaded songs I can't play with other people, leaving the original songs to play, ew)

Anyways Gold starred Timmy on drums the other day, was fun but it took a FC to g* it.. I'm surprised it was that difficult to get, unless my OD path wasn't optical, which it probably wasn't.
