Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
Universal, Warners and others don't want their music on the internet unless you pay for it, period. So anything is fair game.
This is the perfect example of where common sense should prevail. You can't play the game on Youtube, the music isn't good enough quality to justify ripping off, and it's nothing but free advertising for everyone involved.
So stupid but "all or nothing" is the name of the game.

Question about the Wii and Rock Band...
Just got the Wii and game last weekend, and want to set it up in my theater/basement. So the question is... will the guitar/drums work if the Wii and usb doggle things are in a storage closet behind the play area?

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
IIRC, the gist of the post was how I'd snatch up a Warped Tour pack in a second and starting a discussion to see if there were any other tour packs out there that people would pick up based just on the tour/bands alone (e.g. without knowing the actual songs).For me, this is awesome, awesome news! This year has a pretty strong lineup of veterans (Bad Religion, NOFX, Less Than Jake, Flogging Molly, Anti-Flag, Thrice) and "newcomers"/bands people probably don't know, so they could put together a couple of really great packs. I'm really hoping they don't mess up this opportunity to make me the happiest camper of all time.

The Zine (newsletter) is here! It's a pretty cool announcement indeed.
Wait...it says June 9th for release.
Edit again. HMXSean just said the June 2nd announcement is coming tomorrow.

So lets get this out there. We couldn't export Run to the Hills from RB1 but we can buy it for $2?
*edit - wait, was that one a cover?

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
That's cool then. I have no problems getting rid of the cover tunes. The Trooper was in GHII and was a cover as well, IIRC.Here's the breakdown of previous tunes:
The Trooper (GHII) cover
Number of the Beast (GHIII) master
Number of the Beast (RB DLC) cover
Run to the Hills (RB) cover
... and damn that was fast, Wiki already has the Maiden DLC info.
