Will you be getting anything?
Thanks to Worms for submitting.
very nice put megadeth peace sells album up for download and not put the song peace sells….thanks so much
Because its ALREADY in Rock Band 2, which is out Sunday.
you do know thats on the disk already? lmao
LOL, my bad lol…. wasnt looking ahead. I will set back down with my hands over my head…:(
Charlene’s a pretty good song…. but it’s pretty short.
if i felt like spending $200 on a game this might be worth it?
That sounds a bit more like a statement than a question.
And are you talking about Rock Band 2? If you are, and you don’t have RB 1… I think it’s worth it. If you do own RB 1…. I personally don’t think it’s worth buying the new pack. (drums & Guitar) The game on it’s own? Definitely…. but the new guitar & drums are only slightly better. The Ion drum kit looks nice…. but expensive.
I own RB1, and will be picking up just the disc of RB2. My favorite guitar is still my Wireless Gibson Les Paul from GH3…. so I’ll just stick with that. (And my drum kit still works great.) I already copied the songs from RB1 to my hard drive, and I have 40 DL tracks…. so when they release those other 20 songs for free later in the year I’ll have around 200 songs…. and that’s pretty sweet.
How did you already copy the songs from RB1 to your hard drive??

Yeah… just go into the “options” in the main menu (of Rock Band) and at the bottom it says export tracks (or something of that nature, I can’t remember exactly what it says) then you have to pay 400pts. You also need 1.5 gb of space on your HD. From what I’ve read…. the songs are inserted into all modes of RB2…. so it’s well worth it to me.
What?? 400pts??? That’s ridiculous!
I thought it was ok. Sure free would have been better…. but I’d rather pay 5 bucks than not have the ability to do it at all.
I think they probably did it to cover some licensing costs…. or to pay for new additions to their houses.
Either way, not having to get up & swap discs…. and having a nice juicy 200 track setlist to choose from in one game is tits. (And I’m talking sweet, firm, 21 year old c-cup tits….-minus the big blue veins decorating the sides.)
what about fagtits?
Hmm… ok. I’ll do it for the tits.
$5 for the transfer was worth it to me. As far as I know you can use all the songs in all modes in RB2. Mystery Setlists, Create a Setlist, etc. in the tour mode have every song you have from RB1, DLC, and RB2 in them. RB2 has a lot of nice improvements over RB1. I’m not disappointed with it.
FAN-tastic
Is Death Magnetic still coming out for RB? I want to get it, but I don’t want to buy it twice. :-/ I’d rather have it for RB.
No dice buddy! I want Unforgiven III for RB SOOOOOOOoooooOOOOOO bad!
Got Rock Band 2 Sat night at 1 am. Wife stopped by Walmart and demanded they sell it to her because it was officially released hehe. Spent the rest of night and weekend playing it.
Hooray for your wife. She must be hot. Kudos!
