I suppose that's RB4-only content, so there's no point in buying it on the 360? Like no way it get integrated into RB Blitz, right?

Correct. RB4 DLC won't go back.

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

Well, I did go a little nuts and fill in some of the back catalog before they go off sale tonight/tomorrow.

Spoiler:
Nirvana:
Breed
Lounge Act
On a Plain
Polly
Something in the Way
Stay Away
Territorial Pissings
About a Girl

The Cars - You're All I've Got Tonight

Soundgarden - Pretty Noose

Iron Maiden - The Trooper

Rise Against:
Prayer of the Refugee
Re-Education (Through Labor)

The Jam - A Town Called Malice

Oasis - Supersonic (Live)

Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers:
A Thing About You (Live)
American Girl (Live)
Breakdown (Live)
Even the Losers (Live)
Here Comes My Girl (Live)
Mary Jane's Last Dance (Live)
Refugee (Live)
The Waiting (Live)

Alice In Chains - Heaven Beside You

Flyleaf - Again

Sliverchair - Tomorrow


26 songs for $23.48. Not too bad. Should help fill the gaps in the missing exports for a while.

On Twitter they've acknowledged the custom band "issue" and said they're investigating.

You might as well go all-in on Nirvana. Come As You Are is the Unplugged version and Lithium is the Reading version but between those two and the first two imports you'll be able to reconstruct Nevermind with the exception of the hidden Endless Nameless track that wasn't even on all copies originally. The other two Bleach tracks are worthy too. The other pack is RB3-era though, so it's not on sale.

That was in addition to the Nirvana I already owned. I did skip the other two Bleach tracks because they don't do much for me at this time in my life. I already spent an extra $3.50 on that Nirvana 01 pack even though I really only wanted "Something in the Way" and "On a Plain" just to round out Nevermind like you said.

Any reviews of the new instruments? I'm still trying to decide between a Guitar bundle and a Band in the Box (but leaning heavily towards just the guitar and using my slightly beat-up Beatles drum set on those rare occasions when I want a drummer). I have both sets on pre-order for in-store pick up tomorrow.

PS4 instruments have taken a hit in some reviews for Bluetooth issues. People seem to like the build quality overall though.

No, my xbox or TV input, not sure yet, drops a shitload of brightness. Restarting the xbone fixes it.

This just in: My arm is sore after playing Suspiscious Minds on Medium Guitar. And the retarded monkey that moved out during the rock band 3 days is back playing drums.

This thing has to be downloading all my DLC automatically. I hit quick play and it's finding 377 songs. There's no way I downloaded all those myself over the last couple of days.

Edit: Nope, I was wrong. And the store seems all kinds of borked right now as to what it thinks you own and what it thinks you don't own.

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

wow, lucky! DIdn't do that for me

One thing - there's no way to turn off the guitar controller that I can see. Holding in the Xbox button only gives the console off option. I didn't check the drums yet for that issue.

Firmware updates for some instruments available now:

Should fix connection issues on PS4.

For PlayStation 4 intruments, if you are unsure how to pair the instrument with your PC then instructions for Windows 7, 8.1 and 10 can be found below.

[all links broken]

[also they can't spell "instruments"]

Hurray!

The only option is through a Windows PC? Not the game or even a Mac? That's gonna piss some people off, Mad Catz, good planning!

Every time I wake the console, I get the dimmed screen.

Not only that, it has to be a Windows PC with a Bluetooth adapter. No big deal if you're on a laptop -- that's pretty standard, right? -- but my desktop doesn't have one.
