This thread needs to be locked until confirmed! Stop being excited people, its making me all excited, I don't want to be let down

E3 is two weeks away, you shush!

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

E3 is two weeks away, you shush!

Yeah!!

 

[Captain N]

That would be awesome

No kidding! I'd buy each and every single song from those guys.

 

[LaneDS]

Oh fuckin a.

Talking Heads in RB2? That would be incredible.

 

[plaidtopia]

:O

RB1 disc-based songs as free DLC?!

Holy-shit-amazing-fuck-awesome RB2 setlist?!

:O

Spoiler

PLEASE BE REAL

 

[Rodeo Clown]

22) carry on my wayward son (kansas)

Kansas has a pretty damn good catalog of music (up until Monolith, anyway), and Harmonix has now used this song twice.

 

[minkydash]

1) tangled up in blue (bob dylan)
12) spirit in the sky (norman greenbaum)

I'm pretty shocked to see both of these on this list. I'm not complaining, though - I love it when these games pick songs from genres other than Alternative Rock.

Overall, the leaked list feels a lot like the Guitar Hero 2 setlist to me - a lot of variety, and a lot of songs I haven't heard of before. I think both of those are good qualities. Also:

17) everlong (foo fighters)
19) lump (presidents of the USA)
21) drain you (nirvana)
32) holiday in cambodia (dead kennedys)
39) one way or another (blondie)
44) bandages (hot hot heat)
45) PDA (interpol)
47) float on (modest mouse)
59) hungry like the wolf (duran duran)

Awesome.

 

[Jethro]

Holy Shit
Jethro Tull-Aqualung and Dream Theater-Panic Attack.

Progressive Rock Fans rejoice!

 

[SleazyC]

MEGADETH MEGADETH MEGADETH MEGADETH MEGADETH MEGADETH!

(( I thought Metallica's contract stipulated that any game with their music in it could not have Megadeth in it as well. If RB1 songs are playable and available through RB2 wonder how this would work out ))

 

[DuckRacer]

We've been having leaks every single day since RB2 was announced. Holy cow.

22) carry on my wayward son (kansas)
25) livin on a prayer (bon jovi)

Also, omggg.

 

[xbhaskarx]

Just add

The Undertones - Teenage Kicks
Television - Marque Moon

Yeah.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

New Improved OP Thanks to JonathanEx, with more helpful hottness to come.

 

[GoutPatrol]

I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait I can't wait.

 

[daegan]

We actually are close enough for most of the songlist to be done, but somehow I doubt that it lines up more than halfway with this list.

I really, really hope I'm wrong though.

(Dammit, HMX, get it DONE on time!)

 

[Crateman]

Holy Shit
Jethro Tull-Aqualung, Dream Theater-Panic Attack, and The Trees-Rush

Progressive Rock Fans rejoice!

Fixed.

 

[AndresON777]

still no tool *hits head on desk*

 

[vatstep]

Bikini Kill, Duran Duran, Talking Heads... fucking awesome.

Also, I absolutely don't believe the free RB1 DLC until it's confirmed. If they actually do this, when they could continue to make money from late-adopters (people who buy RB2 then go back and buy RB1), then it's the most generous and progressive thing done yet in this gen.

 

[Nisa65]

I thought Metallica's contract stipulated that any game with their music in it could not have Megadeth in it as well.

What is the source for this Megadeth/Metallica rumour?, I've seen it mentioned on this board a number of times. It seems unlikely as Lars and Hetfield don't seem to have any kind of grudge against Dave Mustaine, even if Mustaine holds one against them.

 

[duderon]

Good list, great variety.

Harmonix :bow

if true, of course.

still no tool *hits head on desk*

Just tell yourself it's never coming, like me. Cause it's really never coming.

 

[Jethro]

Fixed.

Well, for completion you are right but i am no kansas fan.

 

[Schmo Florez]

Social D! If true Rock Band 2 is gonna be good times.

 

[SuperBonk]

That fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam.

Rock Band 2 took every last dime (of mine) with this game.

 

[kurahadol]

Eye of the Tiger?! Living on a Prayer?! Any Way You Want It?!?!

Fucking epic.

Where's more Coheed stuff though, Welcome Home was the best song last game :/

 

[DarkJC]

Eye of the Tiger?! Living on a Prayer?! Any Way You Want It?!?!

Fucking epic.

Where's more Coheed stuff though, Welcome Home was the best song last game :/

I'd love more Coheed, just PLEASE no covers. Ten Speed

 

[onegoodlogan]

Eye of the Tiger?! Living on a Prayer?! Any Way You Want It?!?!

Fucking epic.

They could still be on there, I'm holding out hope.
Still holding out hope for a Bad Religion track pack too, Sorrow is alright but where the hell is my 21st Century Digital Boy?

 

[thomasbk]

6) dammit (blink 182) ??

wasn't this on the Guitar Hero WT trailer?

can a song be on both games? :S

 

[onegoodlogan]

Plenty songs were in both GH3 and the original Rock Band.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

6) dammit (blink 182) ??

wasn't this on the Guitar Hero WT trailer?

I think there were like 10 that were in RB and GHIII.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

There's really only genre missing: Indie Rock. Modest Mouse is there, but it's their new bullshit, not the classic Indie Back catalogue.

WE NEED:
Built To Spill
Pavement
Yo La Tengo

 

[SuperBonk]

No chance in hell Pavement is gonna appear in any of these games.

Spoiler

I so hope I'm wrong

 

[dave is ok]

ELVIS COSTELLO
AHOAGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

 

[Deadly]

Wow those songs are made of PURE AWESOME. GH:WT is going to have a hard time beating those.

 

[kurahadol]

I'd love more Coheed, just PLEASE no covers. Ten Speed

Agreed, the song itself isn't even fun to play on the instruments either, was really dissapointed with that.

I'd love to see some of their more prog stuff like In Keeping Secrets, any of the Willing Wells, or The End Complete.

 

[Bigfoot]

I think there were like 10 that were in RB and GHIII.

Yeah. Everlong is also confirmed for the next GH. I wouldn't be surprised if a few more of those songs in the list are in GH:WT too.

 

[LakeEarth]

Sick song choices. Happy to see Alice in Chains in there, as well as some GH1 songs. No Ozzy on the list, which either means this isn't a complete list (if the 80+ song rumor is true), or this is the first Harmonix guitar based game without an Ozzy or Sabbath song on it. I just can't believe that though. Iron Man HAS to be on it.

And Master Exploder better have all the swearing.

 

[Costanza]

Hopefully HMX gives us a bundle with just the game + guitar. My Les Paul double strums occasionally for some reason so I'd probably want to pick up the new strat.

 

[jamesinclair]

Theyve been talking about 70-80 songs, which is great...

But as a PS2 owner (or wii owner), why would I pay $30 to get 20 songs in a couple of weeks (track pack 1) when I could pay $50 to get 80 songs in three months?


Track pack 1 is a huge mistake. It should have been 30 songs for 40$.

 

[jett]

16) panic attack (dreamtheater)


...eh they could've chosen better, but I'll take it!

If I ever buy one of these "band games", I'll definitely be getting Harmonix's. The rockstar feel was completely lost to me in GH3.

 

[Flynn]

If this is right I'm pretty impressed. I called Bikini Kill (got the song wrong, though), The Go-Gos, Joan Jet and Blondie

 

[Jethro]

16) panic attack (dreamtheater)

So what are your favorites DT Songs? Octavarium or In the Presence of Enemies would be epic and very exhausting^^

 

[Momar]

Is the GH: World Tour tracklist known? Sorry if it's been posted everywhere, I'm one of the few who still has never purchased one of these instrument games, but now that I have a PS3, I might just have to grab RB2 (unless GH somehow has a better tracklist than this).

 

[FFChris]

So what are your favorites DT Songs? Octavarium or In the Presence of Enemies would be epic and very exhausting^^

Could have just gone with Pull Me Under.

Souls of Black is an awesome song. Looking forward to seeing the complete list.

 

[Des0lar]

Megadeth and Testament being in is pretty cool.

yup

 

[GoutPatrol]

There's really only genre missing: Indie Rock. Modest Mouse is there, but it's their new bullshit, not the classic Indie Back catalogue.

WE NEED:
Built To Spill
Pavement
Yo La Tengo

It needs some funk before indie rock. And The Roots.

At least The Seed (2.0). Please.

 

[Ten-Song]

Some thoughts...

6) dammit (blink 182)

I'm happy to see this in RB2, because that'll draw me further away from getting GHWT and having to buy even more god damn plastic toy guitars/drums.

7) thats what you get (paramore)

Would have picked something else, but I'm cool with that.

8) the trees (rush)

Fuck yeah!

9) ace of spades (motorhead)

Fuck yeah again!

11) testify (rage against the machine)

I thought that RATM was only going to be in Guitar Hero games? If this is true, I'll be a VERY happy man.

15) eye of the tiger (survivor)

Seriously?

18) one step closer (linkin park)

I will feel no shame in saying that I'm happy to see this on the list.

19) lump (presidents of the USA)

I... did not see that one coming. Awesome though.

23) peace sells (megadeath)

A great choice.

37) psycho killer (talking heads)

Very yes.

41) push it (static-x)

Hey, never thought I'd see Static-X in one of these games.

46) my own worst enemy (lit)

Don't care what anyone says, this is a great pick.

47) float on (modest mouse)

Fuck yes!

51) suffer (bad religion)

I'd prefer a different song, but I won't complain.

 

[CurseoftheGods]

Any chance of the Beatles rumors turning out to be true? :hopeful

 

[sixteen-bit]

45) PDA (interpol)

Hey looks at that some actual good Interpol

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

It needs some funk before indie rock. And The Roots.

At least The Seed (2.0). Please.

Oh my god yes the fucking Legendary Roots Crew.

 

[M3wThr33]

PUSA is always good. Now they need Harvey Danger and Fastball.

 

[mattiewheels]

of all the great, GREAT dylan songs to choose from to work in this format.........tangled up in blue?

if it had tombstone blues i'd buy 4 copies.
