Plus RB2 you can do sets where you pick several songs and play them without going back to the menu. Well worth $5 for me. 7 more days

“Why would I want to do this? Can’t I just put the original in the deck and play it?”

The gameplay is improved in Rock Band 2 (e.g. the talkies are a lot more responsive), so it’s worth paying the small price to play the songs in a better version.

“not yet known whether bonus tracks are included”

They obviously are, as the beginning of the article states that 55 songs will be transferrable. There are 58 songs on the disc, and we know the 3 tracks that won’t be transferred, so that sums it up.

It’s just an easy of use thing. That’ll take five minutes to switch discs and get everyone logged back in and crap … I’d pay five buck for the FIRST five minutes I’d save.

BOOOOOOOOOOOO for no Etner Sandman. That’s my favorite song of the bunch. ~hush little baby don’t say a word … and nevermind that noise you heard ~

I guess we can’t read *too* much into this regards EU/UK release, if anything it’s a good sign this functionality is globally available from the off & not locked to North America.

Regards the tracks, not fussed about losing the cover versions (also Monsoon by Tokio Hotel is apparently the 4th track that won’t transfer) and happy it’s only 400SMP.

All we need now is for the damned thing to in our grubby hands….

If you purchase the Export Disc feature, you’ll be able to export all of the 55 songs to your hard drive, yes. And make sure you have 1,50 GB of space available

You can also delete any song you want once you’ve transferred over all the songs, so no need for that Fallout Boy song to take up space, if you don’t want it

I wish that the Fallout Boy song didn’t transfer over.

Does this mean I can export the songs to the xbox hard drive now and trade in Rock Band while I can still get a decent price for it?

Figures no Paranoid or Run to the Hills. We actually play those. I can deal with it though nice we get the option of transferring at all! 10 more days! Can’t wait to get the game and the new drum set!
