if this is a full $60 game, it will fail. but knowing harmonix, this will be a 20/30$ track pack that also includes avatars of the band.

I'm divided about the milkage of the music genre. They are putting out too many games, but at the same time they're putting out games that appeal to people of all musical tastes which I like.

I sincerely hope this is just like an ACDC type deal, just with the Green Day avatars. Harmonix has been so good about not milking the franchse compared to Activision and I would really hate to see them going the same route, especially with Rock Band 3 being in the wings for 2010

That being said, if these songs are compatible with my main Rock Band experience, then I will certainly be picking it up :)

Why the hell do Rock Band need to go down the band route, it's just a terrible idea, if they really want to do this just release a track pack. I'd rather the make a RB3, with an improved drum kit with more pads, and just go absolutely mental with the songs and have like 150 on there. It's sell so many copies, and would actually be worth the time and effort they put into it.

Yeah, I forgot that. Also bass was somewhat good like on Longview and Welcome to Paradise, but for the most part, drums will be the only challenging part. Oh god, Basket Case on expert :P good luck everyone

The problem with Foo and Nirvana is that, if you look at the released DLC for the Rock Band franchise, it has a HUGE number of songs from those bands. Unless they double dip, not a lot of people who already bought those songs, myself included, would buy the games. I just bought the Nirvana 2 pack last week actually :P

I knew Beatles:RB was going to set a bad precedent for the RB franchise. I blame it all on those guys that turned GH into crap after Harmonix left. If it's < $60 and the tracks are 100% transferrable into my main RB experience, I'll buy it, otherwise, individual band games = fail.

Greenday... Yuck. Wannabe punk turned emo. Why would anybody want to play this on a fake guitar? It's not like Green Day has any songs with decent guitar anyway.

Next up, Linkin Park Rock Band.

IMO, unless they plan to make some major changes, it should just be dlc.

Speaking of Green Day, my TV is on in the background, and there's some programme on Channel 4 (UK) about the band. They just gave an interview, and stated they were a "Punk" band. They then went on to describe how punk was similar to hip-hop :| What a joke of a band...

I know, and it kinda sucks that it wont happen.... but even so Id be happy if they'd also release a FF DLC pack along with Nirvanas already released RB DLC.

I'm being deadly serious... They were talking about how both genres have some sort of "ethics" or some dumb, waffley crap. I want another era of real punk. There haven't been any good new punk bands since the 90s.

Haha... Songs about women, cars and money are obviously similar to politically fuelled, anti-establishment music.

I despise the new Green Day. They used to be decent but I can't even enjoy their old music anymore.

The Clash, Propagandhi, Rancid, NOFX and Lagwagon FTW :P

Yes. They're both rebellious. Take the work of NWA, they were VERY against the Government and Police, as is alot of Punk. Very similar indeed.

For one moment I thought about that, but further analysis on what the HipHop has turned made me go no.

I was going to say Punk is more like good old Rap, because HipHip is all about the bootay now :|

Oh, I know. He was probably talking about old school rap. We just don't know as we're taking that other users word on it.
