I will easily take a pass on Limelight. Rush has always been a "blah" band to me. Never cared for them. I would rather listen to Blink 182 any day.

What I hate is the 160 point price. I love "Hard to Handle" but to keep paying 2 bucks for one song...that is going to add up quick if you think about it. For the person who eventually downloads everything...wonder what this game's final cost will be (especially if you add in all the other accessories that was mentioned a page or two ago).

The team that puts up PS3 downloadable content was out last week. They post content on Thursday evenings, so it'll be another day or two. Kind of a drag that Sony lags behind MS in posting downloadable content.

Wow...those DLC songs are shit. I'll probably get Hard to Handle, but Blink and The Killers would have been SO much better.

The Skynyrd track is a really good chart and fun to play

Rush is easy (I 5 starred expert guitar on my sightread)

DLC post is semi-updated with two vids, but no tiers yet. Gimme Three Steps looks really fun on Guitar, and the Rush song looks kinda meh like Dave was saying. However, Limelight sounds like it's going to be awesome on drums. I haven't seen a vid of Hard to Handle yet, but I'll put it up there as soon as I see it, as well as tiers (either when I buy them or I see them elsewhere).

I can handle the 160 point price tag as long as I'm getting my MS Points for at least 25% off or so. But it would be nice if the covers were a little cheaper - especially on songs by bands with very unique lead singers, Black Crowes and Rush being 2 of them.

I'll wait for the YouTube vids of those 2, but I'll grab Gimme Three Steps sight unseen (I've been hoping for more Skynyrd).

Guitar vids of Gimme Three Steps -

and Limelight -

I still don't really like the Rush cover singer, but the guitar sounds pretty good on it, so I'll probably get it. Can't have too many quality classic rock songs, IMO.

Still looking for a Hard to Handle video.

EDIT: Screw you Shagrath!

And for drums:

Skynyrd is really easy (1st tier)

Limelight is super fun, but have your pedal foot ready...

Not a fan of it or Rush, personally.

I hope they continue to mix "present-day" music with classics.

Anubis2005X

Yeah, I wish the Rush cover singer sounded more like Rush, oh well...

The Bus

Worst DLC ever.

Got all three today. I'm a DLC junkie. Loved the Skynyrd song, but wasn't impressed with Rush-Limelight. All together, I was disappointed in the overall releases for the week.

Michael Corvin

Wow... Blink 182 over Rush?



How can one of the greatest drummers of all time be 'blah?' They are the perfect band for Rock Band DLC.

The singer on the DLC isn't the greatest, but the song itself is an excellent rendition.

umm, this game needs some blink and green day etc. too much old crap I was beyond excited when I heard about Blink... Angels And Airwaves would be more fitting though.

discostu1337

One of the greatest drummers of all time is also in Blink

DaveWadding

so now we got some Skynyrd DLC...I want Allmans now dammit!!!

flashburn

Is that even the same vocalist who did the cover for Tom Sawyer? From the youtube video I don't think it sounds anything like him (or Geddy Lee).

Rainmaker

Thanks....looks like I should be ok staying with the Pro.

Shagrath

Bwahahahahaha!!! I'm sorry. That's funny.

Lateralus

Didn't skank girl (Other thread) say she liked Blink 182 as well and referred to them as "hardcore"... I'm glad to see you are in such esteemed company.

The Bus

I know Travis Barker is young, but he's more talented than most:

Mad Dawg

The DLC reactions each week are almost as entertaining as the actual content. Personally, I think this might be my favorite week (if two weren't covers). Then again, I'd have been happy to get anything, since I'm a hopeless addict.

LivingINClip

No Killers?

No sale.

argh923

I think there's a good mixture of new and old. I'd be down for Green Day, definitely...but as I said earlier, I consider Blink to be probably the worst band in the past 15 years, so...I'm fine without them.

I hope you're not serious.

devilshalo

Of the new school drummers.. Travis is the shit. Just watch his last performance on Letterman. The guy performed with one hand in a cast.. as he did on tour with +44. He did the same when he broke a foot. He's fucking amazing. He's in the new breed.. along with Josh Freese.

Not to take away from the Professor. But the Professor is god.

discostu1337

I've loved blink for about 15yrs, and yes I'm serious about Travis. I'm fine with the old stuff, but it's rapidly outnumbering the new stuff. I'd like a pack of 10 songs from the 90's and a pack of 10 songs from the 00's to even it out
