The Who is that awesome.

 

[Kafel]

20 bucks.....

16 tracks ...

 

[Costanza]

I really fucking wish they went with Californication instead. Oh well.

16 tracks ...

I know

 

[Spruchy]

HELL YES BEST DLC EVER WOOOT

 

[TAJ]

I'm buying GHWT for the working guitar. No other reason.

It has a detachable neck, so I guess you have no reason to buy GHWT. Just mod a RB guitar. (strummer for sure, whammy spring and overdrive sensor depending on your luck)

 

[Emerson]

I really fucking wish they went with Californication instead.

Agreed

 

[TheQueen'sOwn]

I really fucking wish they went with Californication instead. Oh well.

Agreed.
I'm really looking forward to buying Under the Bridge though.

 

[bounchfx]

fuck californication. yeah, I said it.

 

[TheGreatDave]

umm.... but it would only be incomplete UNTIL you got RB2, which I am assuming is an inevitability... just saying. I agree that it's a pretty crappy practice, but if RB2 is a forgone conclusion the decision should be easy.

Maybe I can look in to it then. Right now? Rage.

different connectors in the new one.

 

[birdman]

Hell yeah! 2 weeks of awesome DLC in a row. This'll be the first album I buy in it's entirety.



Sir Psycho Sexy is gonna be sooo censored.

fuck californication. yeah, I said it.

This, even though I do like Californication. BSSM is the better album.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Needs more Interpol and Joy Division plz.

 

[Tenks]

Since most people frequent both the RB2 and GHWT thread I'll just post this here:

Does RB2 support a hyperspeed mode for guitar? If it does, are you allowed to select the hyperspeed rating for only an individual fretboard and not the entire band. Thirdly, does anyone know if GHWT will support hyperspeed for only one fret board?

 

[TheGreatDave]

Yes, no, yes (I think).

[Struct09]

Yep

If it does, are you allowed to select the hyperspeed rating for only an individual fretboard and not the entire band.

Nope

Thirdly, does anyone know if GHWT will support hyperspeed for only one fret board?

No idea

 

[Kafel]

Needs more Interpol [...]

YES

 

[StrikerObi]

I might pick up a song or two but I'll probably pass on most of next week's offerings. I used to buy a ton of DLC. I'm not sure if it's because it's becoming less interesting, or if it's because the songs often have weenie guitar parts, or if it's just that my library is large enough to the point where I feel like I don't need to be constantly adding to it anymore.

I think the Youtube videos of the tracks more often convince me NOT to buy something I was thinking about buying.

 

[TheGreatDave]

I really wish Harmonix had put some effort in with Hyperspeed options.

 

[Archie]

I really wish Harmonix had put some effort in with Hyperspeed options.

Wait until Rock Band 3

 

[McBradders]

Fucking. Yes.

Super stoked for this.

And for those of you wanting Californication instead of BSSM?


Y'all are fucking crazy.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Both albums suck.

 

[Tenks]

Also, for those who are joining the league of Angry PS3 Rhythm Game Players (AP3RGP) -- founder M3wthr33 -- GameStop finally put a release date on their PS3/2 RB2 guitar. Luckily it says its the same date as the game releases. I know when I tried to preorder a few weeks ago they were not ready to take my money but they were last week and now its up on their site.

[birdman]

They're Red Hot. Greatest song under 1 minute ever.

Also, BSSM is a bassist's wet dream.

 

[Nisa65]

fuck californication. yeah, I said it.

I'm with you mate, The Chilis went way downhill after BSSM, all their best shit was on Mother's Milk and The Uplift Mofo Party Plan.

 

[McBradders]

Both albums suck.

No you go.

 

[sublime085]

I'm with you mate, The Chilis went way downhill after BSSM, all their best shit was on Mother's Milk and The Uplift Mofo Party Plan.

One Hot Minute never gets the proper respect.

Walkabout would be an awesome song.

 

[ahoyhoy]

Going to opt out of the entire album and just pick up:

Power of Equality
Breaking the Girl
And fucking UNDER THE BRIDGE

 

[BobsRevenge]

Well, I'll be getting The Righteous and the Wicked, Suck My Kiss, My Lovely Man, and Mellowship Slinky in B Major.

 

[Hop]

They're Red Hot. Greatest song under 1 minute ever.

Also, BSSM is a bassist's wet dream.

It's 71 seconds, but close enough.

 

[EazyB]

Probably gunna pick up the whole album. Thanks Harmonix

 

[Flyguy]

Breaking the Girl will be whole heaps of fun to play. That and Under the Bridge. Pass on the whole album. Wasn't Higher Ground on a previous GH? That would be a good RB song. I'm a little burnt out on RHCP, to be honest.

 

[birdman]

One Hot Minute never gets the proper respect.

One Hot Minute was shit except for the singles. No Frusciante = not Chili Peppers.

Also, I never want to hear Flea sing another song for as long as I live.

 

[Nisa65]

One Hot Minute was shit except for the singles. No Frusciante = not Chili Peppers.

Hillel Slovak says otherwise, Frusciante has to be one of the most overrated guitarists in rock.

 

[birdman]

Hillel Slovak says otherwise, Frusciante has to be one of the most overrated guitarists in rock.

My fault, I forgot about him. Hell, if it wasn't for Slovak, Frusciante wouldn't be overrated. He based his playing style off Slovak.

 

[sublime085]

One Hot Minute was shit except for the singles. No Frusciante = not Chili Peppers.

I respectfully disagree.

One Hot Minute is my favorite RHCP album, Dave Navarro is pretty awesome on the record.

 

[birdman]

I respectfully disagree.

One Hot Minute is my favorite RHCP album, Dave Navarro is pretty awesome on the record.

I can't stand One Hot Minute myself, and I absolutely love the Chili Peppers. It just feels like it was a half-hearted effort.

 

[Flyguy]

Will we ever see some reggae tracks? I can't be the only one wanting to play steel drums.

[M3wThr33]

RHCP! *spooge*

But... 16 tracks. NO B-SIDES? I WANT SOUL TO SQUEEZE AND SIKAMIKANICO!

 

[Ten-Song]

Both albums suck.

Holy crap, me and Dave agree on something. I must be seeing things.

 

[birdman]

Oh God, if only.

 

[TAJ]

I really doubt it.
Can't Stand Losing You by the Police and Vital Signs by Rush are close, though.

 

[AMUSIX]

Okay, someone list off the 5 best songs from BSSM.

5 best songs and 5 best for Rock Band will be two different lists...

Personally, if I were only to get 5, it'd be:
Under the Bridge (for popularity/familiarity)
The Greeting Song (for challenge, most likely)
Breaking the Girl (for vocals, great bass line, but mostly strumming guitar...a nice change of pace)
Mellowship Slinky in B Major (without a doubt, one of the most interesting progressions on the album)
Suck My Kiss (one of the most straight-forward tracks on the album, nice parallel guitar and bass lines)

alternate:
I Could Have Lied (slow, mellow, some awesome melodic solo work, same with the vocal lines)

Sir Psycho Sexy is a cool track, but it's 8 minutes of a very slow repetitive jam. Awesome for musicians, potentially mind-numbing for gamers.

 

[parasight]

Most looking forward to I Could Have Lied. Such an epic ballad.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Holy crap, me and Dave agree on something. I must be seeing things.

Rock Band is a good game.

 

[sneaky77]

I really wish Harmonix had put some effort in with Hyperspeed options.

That would make too much sense...

 

[Ten-Song]

Rock Band is a good game.

Well, a bit overreacting on my part. You're no Costanza after all.
