Not sure about where you guys are pre-ordering, but the game only versions on Amazon and Best Buy DO NOT have the bonus songs. Only the bundle versions do.

It's 34 if you preorder from Amazon, otherwise it's 30. And yeah, it's only with the instrument bundles, at least as of now.

Maybe you'll make enough back to almost make up for the money you aren't saving with GCU at Best Buy.

I understand that part of his post I don't understand what he's talking about with "them pulling a fast one on us". They've never said all the DLC and export songs would be available at launch.

Yep that was my bad I misread on the amazon page. I have it preordered from best buy (the guitar bundle).

More Brad Paisley is a plus as far as I'm concerned. Start a Band is going to be a lot of fun too. Dueling Brad Paisley and Keith Urban solos.

I just pre-ordered from Amazon. I had to get the guitar bundle because I don't have any of the old instruments. Not sure if they'd work anyway.

I don't know why referencing hacky-sack would somehow make your posts more coherent.

Not yet.

But looking back at the timestamps of the posts in question, the answer to "was I high when that was written?" would have to be "More than likely."

I understand this might be something they'll be working on to the very last minute, and exact numbers just might not be in the cards quite yet, but I wish they'd say something. The game's out in 3 weeks. On day one (on-disc + bonus songs aside), will we be able to play 10 songs from our libraries? 25? 50? 100? 300? 1,000? Will it vary by platform?

Pretty sure that's what high me was trying to get at.

I don't mind the trickle of DLC as long as it's steady. What I want more than anything is a "Download All" button so I don't have to go through and do each one manually. Or, even worse, don't know if I own the song before hitting a button BEFORE hitting another button to download.

Looks like it's been removed.

Hurray!

“With fewer than 20 days from release, we’re excited to announce the final group of soundtrack songs so that music game fans have a clearer picture of what they’ll be rocking out to with their friends and family this October,” said Product Manager Daniel Sussman. “And this is just the start – with more than 1500 songs available on the Music Store at launch and more to come, we’re confident that Rock Band 4 will provide the best music gaming experience for fans this fall.”

Re: Rock Band 4 (XB1/PS4, 2015)

Oh, wow! Upcoming Rock Band 4 DLC is listed in the Xbox One SmartGlass app.

This includes stuff like:

Weird Al Yankovic - My Own Eyes (a Foo Fighter style pastiche, so what else is Harmonix gonna pick?)
Jefferson Starship - Jane
Linkin Park - Rebellion
Interpol - All the Rage Back Home
Earth, Wind, and Fire - September
Marilyn Manson - The Mephistopheles of Los Angeles
My Morning Jacket - One Big Holiday
Mastodon - High Road
All That Remains - What If I Was Nothing?
Babymetal - Gimme Chocolate

Weird Al in Rock Band! Not the song I would've picked, but still...wow. At least some of this will be available on day one too!

Yeah, what he said (and also as Pinata mentioned, a download freaking all button). I think I have 600 songs from all of the iterations, packs, dlc, and all of the other things that Harmonix has put out since the first Rock Band, I would love to let my Xbox One just download over night or however long it takes.

As a side note, I should be closing on a house soon (we are going through the various channels as we speak). I can't wait to move into a house again...I haven't played Rock Band for 6-8 months because I've been in an apartment temporarily with my wife. I miss it like heck...and can't wait to fire it up again soon.

OMG YES! I wonder if they'll only do his originals? I guess I won't mind too much, but they're leaving a whole helluva lot of money on the table by not dipping into his whole catalog.
