you don't have a proper rock band thread. let's rectify this.
rock band is a full band rhythm game from harmonix, the original creators of guitar hero. if you haven't seen it or played it already, you've probably never been to a party and have no friends. there are over 650 songs available on the platform between on disc songs, expansion packs, and downloadable content. it's on all current systems as well as the ps2, but if you're serious about this shit, you better get it on the 360 or ps3 because the dlc support is laughable on the wii and nonexistent on the ps2.
common questions:
which is better: guitar hero or rock band?
it's all a matter of opinion and the track lists. personally i feel the layout and design of rock band makes it a thousand times more replayable than guitar hero. plus the music selection is so much wider. everything from jimmy buffett to devildriver. however, if you love seeing kfc ads all over the place, guitar hero world tour might be your game.
how often does the dlc catalog update
every tuesday morning. dlc is announced fridays at 10/9c am.
i have a guitar from another game, will it work in rock band?
maybe.
360: all guitars work in rb2
ps3: the gh3 les paul will not work. everything else does.
wii and ps2: only rock band guitars will work. sorry. thats what you get.
what is the best dlc?
Rock Band 2 Squeeze - Tempted Expert Guitar FC
this week's downloadable content:
coming soon:
rock band: unplugged for psp
rock band: the beatles
lego rock band (not fucking kidding.)
