Pretty sure it's a Best Buy exclusive, for at least the near future.

You might see links elsewhere at the very beginning of March. At least, that's when the international orders are supposed to start.

Standard reminder warning to our PS3 brothers and sisters not to buy old DLC, because they'll probably get updated at some point.

I wouldn't pass up a sale in hopes that you might get the opportunity to buy the songs @ full price w/ key support some time in the future.

Mama Tried? There are only a few songs I'm interested in, but I don't want to wait on that one.

Couldn't put Ring of Fire in with the recent Johnny Cash tracks (of which I only bought I Walk the Line)? Yeah, fuck you. Guess I'll just keep playing the Social Distortion version and singing the LIPS version.

Or, you know, you could wait a few months and buy it when it's made available individually as all track pack (temporary) exclusive tracks have been.

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

Yep. I had no problem waiting for "The Gambler" and I have no problem waiting for "Ring of Fire".

My gripe is that this track pack doesn't have keys support. I guess that they want it compatible with RB1 & 2 folks, but c'mon. Live in the now.

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

Will the Track Pack still be based on the RB1 engine?

Yes, but they will have harmonies and pro-drums when ported over to RB3 via the export code.

Sponge just tweeted that "Plowed" is now available in a rhythm game that isn't Guitar Hero!

WTF? Hey, Corvin! Check out the Collective Soul and Bush. There's our mid-90s rock.

Paper Jams?

And Bush? Who the fuck wants that Nickleback-before there was a Nickleback shit?

Collective Soul on the other hand I'd buy in a heartbeat.

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

As someone whose primary taste in music is country, I'm mixed about the new track pack. I like the lineup of artists, but man; I could name about ten different songs from half of those artists that would have been preferable. I've loved Dwight Yoakam since his debut in 1986; "Fast as You" is the kind of song these games were made for. His cover of "Suspicious Minds" would be killer to play, too. Yet they went with..."Intentional Heartache?" Really? You have all of Shania Twain's discography and you settle on the abysmal "Party of Two" instead of "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" for what reason?

Regardless, I'm fairly stoked to get to play some stuff that's actually familiar to me. I'm looking forward to it.

Sorry, I clearly meant Bush was Creed-before there was a Creed.
