I hope they just keep it as DLC. No reason they can't have a download of the character/avatar.

Maybe in RB3, or have trigger that makes the game us a premade character...

Some news about RB3:

http://www.joystiq.com/2010/03/28/ro...onix-confirms/

At Harmonix's PAX East 2010 panel, five Rock Band designers answered questions from the audience for "An Awkward Hour" with one major stipulation: No questions about Rock Band 3. However, when an audience member inquired whether Green Day: Rock Band songs would still have harmonies when imported into RB2, Harmonix Project Lead Chris Foster began listing off the games with harmony support. "We've said Rock Band 3 would have harmonies already, right?" Foster asked his fellow panelists, who responded with a booming, "No!"

I only did the harmonies once playing the Beatles game at a friend's but that was pretty cool. Glad to see it sticking around.
