Now it looks like not everything will export.. ARGH! I hate twitter!

They said they'll have the full details in about 3 weeks.

Let me know when there's an official release about it from Harmonix. ;)

Yeah, yeah.. Sorry to get excited for a bit. At least I kinda got the thread moving.. You people are still not very talkative though. :P

haha, it's much appreciated Shagrath. RB3 is still my most anticipated game this year.

I wish they wouldn't use the term "export" anymore. Only RB1 has "export"ed. It's confusing.

Only to overthinkers. And people that like to be difficult.

I would even settle for The Gourds version.

The latest interview with John Drake over on RBA has a little info on RB3 DLC. Looks like "standard" DLC (+ keys) will remain the same price, but pro-guitar stuff will be a little more. I'm going to guess that they have a way to offer the "upgrade" as a separate download. That way they can offer up some of the legacy songs and you don't have to repurchase them at the new price, but just buy the pro charts for $1-2 or whatever they decide to charge.

Listened to and watch all the charts of the Snoop DLC this morning and decided I'm just getting What's My Name and Drop It Like It's Hot. That's one more than I planned when the pack was unveiled.

Also, after a week's absence, it appears RBN is finally getting stuff approved. 13 songs added so far today: http://twitter.com/rbn_releases

A couple of those songs were already available and just not on the error420 site. I'm not sure if his script died or what. I know that Kataklysm song was already in the RBN store last week.

There needs to be an official HMX announcement feed for those things. I can't imagine they don't know when something is approved and published so telling us would be a lot easier than having users do screen scrapes.

Twitter or an RSS feed or something that's passive for the clients. I like knowing immediately and hate having to actively check :)

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution
 
So are those songs actually available? I find a link to the demos but not the full version. Awesome for Kirby Krackle!

Edit- Nevermind...found it!

So, the Snoop songs ARE re-records. Not particularly great ones, either. I picked up "What's My Name?" blind, but I won't be buying the other two songs that I had originally planned on getting. :sad:

Well, they do publish a list every day that something goes up over on the RBN site. However if you don't have an XNA account, you can't get in.

I guess someone probably goes and posts that up on the regular RB forums as well, but I hardly ever venture over there. the error420/RBNReleases thing is pretty good. He just had a couple day hiatus, I guess. Maybe his system reset and he was on vacation for Labor Day or something.

I don't mind the re-records on certain songs. Something had to be done to make the tracks more RB-friendly. I'll get "What's My Name?", "Drop It Like It's Hot" and maybe "Beautiful." The re-records didn't kill me enthusiasm for the songs I wanted all along... but I agree that some don't work all that well.

I just wish they had mentioned it in the announcement thread on the RB forums.

Yikes, I might not even pick up What's my Name - that doesn't sound very nice to my ears at all.

Not sure I saw this stuff here yet (Too busy to look)

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution
 
I ended up just picking up 'what's my name.' Admittedly i don't really like the re-record very much, but I'm too much a fan of the original to pass it up

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution
 
I was toying with the idea of getting the Snoop pack but after hearing them went with just What's My Name and Drop It Like It's Hot. May grab beautiful but the other stuff I was kind of looking forward to doesn't sound too good IMO.

I'm going to start with a keyboard career, then maybe pro-keys. Then guitar and bass.

And it's that sentiment that's going to make playing online very difficult, especially in the beginning ;)

Isn't this the same video that's been up on GameStop for like 2-3 weeks? I seem to remember already seeing this quite some time back. I know RBA just caught wind of it though.

Maybe if you go back 45,000 posts in your other home, you can tell us? ;)
