Looks good, a bit trippy...

Don't think anyone has posted the Opening Cinematic to The Beatles Rock Band.

Just heard there'll be an Alice Cooper track pack - six songs apparently. Alice has a contest going on now at his website for it. But only 360 or PS3... I wish they'd put some of those track packs into a disk for us PS2 users! Just because I don't feel like spending 350-400 for a game unit doesn't mean I should be totally ignored! I'll even buy the track packs that PS3 users get for free!

 

[Aragorn]

There was already an Alice Cooper pack.

Alice Cooper was a couple weeks ago. They've released a couple of expansion discs for PS2. I think there's "Track Pack vols 1 and 2" and "Classic Rock". The Country Pack is also coming for PS2, I believe.

Been catching up on "The Beatles Rockband" I think i'm going to purchase the 60 dollar version.

Does anybody know what time updates show up on the PSN? I'm stoked for Iron Maiden and it doesn't seem to be up yet...

I thought that was being released as a disc-based expansion, and not DLC?

 

[firehawk12]

Yeah, there's a disc. I might consider picking it up, since I don't have any of those songs.

I'm torn on it... The problem with Evanescence is that aside from the vocals, there really isn't anything to the rest of the band.

I prefer to play songs I enjoy over ones that I don't but are more of a challenge.

Plus, this is a full band game, no reason why they shouldn't release packs of songs that are a challenge for singers ahead of guitarists and drummers.

Which I understand, but personally, I get far less use out of vocals than any other aspect of the game. I only pull the microphone out when friends are over.
