The only one I've played is The Beatles.

And yes. :blush:

:lol: Actually it's a Japanese thing. I have to go to a local Asian market here to even get them. But they rule!

Yeah... I dunno. I don't trust the Japanese when it comes to candy. They have seaweed flavors. I do have an Asian market two blocks from my office though. I suppose I could be semi-adventurous.

Two days ago she was begging for a grilled cheese. That specific enough for you? :lol:

From where?

So, back on track.

I was wondering how people planned to use the rating system. Obviously we know that a rating of 1 means you don't want that shit showing up ever in random. But I'm wondering what criteria you'll use to classify a song as a 2 as opposed to a 3.

Will you rate everything in the library? Will you use all 5 numbers or just the extremes and middle?

For those of you that have it, does everything have a default rating? If not, what weight does it appear to give songs you haven't rated?

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution
 
From the videos I've seen (before Viacom yanks them) the ratings appear to be grayed out before you adjust them. So I wonder what a non rating weighs against say a 3 or 4.

I will most likely only rate songs I don't want to show up and leave everything else as is.

I think I'll do it like I do my itunes.


Songs I love to either play, or hear - 5*
Song that I greatly enjoy, or get heightened pleasure from playing - 4*
Run of the mill songs - 3*
Songs that have some merit, and might be fun to play at some point at long intervals - 2*
Things I don't want to come up - 1*

This is pretty much what I'm doing as well.

It's too bad you can't rate per instrument.

That would be nice. Maybe in the "stars patch"?

Amazon. Which is odd, because I haven't gotten a shipping confirmation, but the order says its shipped with a delivery date of today.

I split my bundle into two orders: one for the game, one for the keyboard and Amazon just credited my account $10 so I'd still get the bundle price and release day shipping. (per a recommendation from someone else in this thread, many moons ago.)

Edit: just updated to delivered. :banana: I guess.

That's exactly how my itunes, and soon to be RB3, are set up.

I hooked up the stage kit last night, hoping it would work. It did not :(
