Well then not only can you not read, you're memory is going too! Give Jesus a call, I think he can help you out with both of those.

Well, we just got confirmation. Our copy of the game won't be in today. Looks like I'll be out at midnight.

I do admit that I've intentionally tried to forget as much as I could about this release so that I can enjoy it more. I barely remember the setlist, I've avoided the opening cinematic, I haven't watched a single chart or stream or video leaked by the public. I'm happy with those decisions

FWIW - the chart for Summertime by Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince is pretty out of this world.

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

If I knew whether the packages are the same I would go get it at midnight tonight at gamestop and then return my amazon copy tomorrow to them. Which is in no way wrong if anyone says anything

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

There are many songs on the RB2 disk that I would be happy to not have transfer;
something tells me all of those selections will transfer just fine though....just as it was with RB1.

I honestly don't see anything wrong with that. If they get back a still sealed package that is materially the same as the one they sold, who cares?

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

I wonder if Gamestop will put us in discussion groups tonight. I want to hang out with virtual rockers, not stinky Fable or Star Wars fans (which I totally am not, no matter what pictures you may find on the internet).

Shouldn't be difficult to figure out. Just find the guys who look like this:

Bah, just had my third hang while playing. All three have been in the menu system. First two are right when the loading cut scene plays right after you pick a song, this last one was when I went to change the sorting options. PLZFIXHMXKTHXBYE

Just did it again, same thing, select Sort By Artist, bam, hang. I know I've used that sort method before, so WTF.

It's the combined spite and hatred of everyone who doesn't have the game. It looks something like this:

I don't know how early I want to get there because I want to get out as fast as possible. The longer I'm there in line, the longer I have to hang out with other nerds.

Yeah, it hung again, so it looks like it's busted for me. I'll try clearing my cache again.

That's gonna be a whole lot of socially awkward silence.

See, that's what happens when you play early. God hates you and you have to wait until release day to get the inevitable release day patch

So instead of banning people who get it early like MS did, they learned and instead keep the game broken until release day when they patch it. Pretty ingenious if you ask me

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

Haha, disconnected from Live fixes the problem. Hopefully that means it's the same hang as the one people are getting when going to customize stuff, and they will fix it soon. It seems fine as long as I don't sort by Artist (at least for now).
