That's why I said vice versa.

I don't understand this line from that article

Wouldn't that be like saying GH:WT DLC wasn't compatible with GH1? Or the DLC for Call of Duty: WaW doesn't work with the very first CoD game? Why should they?

The better comparison is RB2 DLC working in RB1.

Bingo.

I always liked how Rock Band DLC could work with both games and how some songs would also work in Lego Rock Band. It always felt like their DLC was all encompassing.

?

I'm saying the GH comparison doesn't work as it's not the same situation with RB. With GH none of your GH3 DLC would carry forward. That's not the case with RB.

I'm saying there are cases in the Guitar Hero series where content was neither forward or backwards compatible. Apparently GH5 content wasn't compatible with World Tour. I have no idea about Warriors of Rock since I stopped paying attention.

Regardless, the point was that GH got slammed for NOT doing what Rock Band 1/2 did which was pretty much compatibility across the board, so the fact that there is some incompatibility with RB3 makes it pretty clear why some people would complain.

Who has more codes? What did I miss. I have been wanting to transfer that but I don't have my copy any longer, is this a download one like rock band 2 was? and where could I get a code?

Yeah but the only reason that works is because there are technically two of every song in the download, one for each game.

Is there a problem with RockBand.com? I haven't been able to access the site all morning.

So that means it will be down until next Thursday at 11pm?

Well, speculation is that Apple will announce The Beatles coming to iTunes. Harmonix may have made that happen...

Is that right? I was wondering why it was such a huge download--like 2 GB or something for eleven tracks. (I just redeemed a code for the 21-song RB Country pack and that was 613 MB.)

Speaking of country packs... I'm guessing the sale is why Country Pack 2 got shelved?

Where are you getting these numbers from, and why don't they show actual # of downloads? That's what I want to see!

They're being pulled from Xbox.com. That's why there are no numbers attached, lol.
