Yea, for playtest you can stick to just one instrument. It's peer review where you have to do everything.

That said, no guarantees I'll actually get one available, it's just a "might" right now.
 
Bebedora is slumming now. She's playing online with a random band with her son. It's like if Neil Young showed up at the bar next door unannounced and did a gig.

So if I had an XNA subscription to offer to somebody, who here would actually be an active and helpful playtester and not just goof around like Dave?

I'VE HELPED YOU.

SERIOUSLY!

I've got nothing out of my XNA subscription other than help a handful of songs move along the system a tiny bit faster. You should be praising my name, the wind cries "Dave".

Also, Beatles exports :lol :lol :lol . I don't even know why anyone would want it, Beatles RB is so much better than RB3 will be for delivering a BEATLES EXPERIENCE, but it isn't happening anyway.

Having all the songs in one place has its charms.

Yeah, but I think you lose a lot of charm by taking these songs with beautiful dreamscapes (well, some beautiful dreamscapes) and putting them in an RB which, really, is filled with fashion victim rock cliches. Beatles deserve better.

Almost everything else I'd agree with, but when a band has all their music in one place, it's fine to me. The issue is your GH:A, GH:M, etc, when songs that would be just as fitting in GH:5 are not available.

When he started working for the guv'ment?

Shit, Archie is the "Man"? He is on my ignore list now. :D No wonder he has 10,000+ posts, we all know government workers don't do shit.

If you have seen them 100 times, who cares anymore.

Guitar Hero. :lol :lol
 
Because it's disrespectful to The Beatles to put them in a game where the songs could be sang by some stupid hill-billy looking guy in a checked shirt. Some things are sacred.
 
Beatles Rock Band should export into Green Day Rock Band. Making the "band rock band" games into their own seperate plataform. What better way to honor Johns memory than to have Billy Joe sing songs like I am the Walrus and Revolution.

Man, nothing is sacred anymore. If we can mash Jane Austen and zombies, Lincoln and vampires, and Jay-Z and The Beatles, we have definitely taken down the concept of sacred cows. Postmodernism, FTW.

I guess since this is kind of a music thread: Bret Michaels had a brain hemorage today and is critical.

You know it's gonna be that.

Yeah, probably. I just copy and pasted.

Dire Straits is something. And hey, I Know What I Am is my kind of

Hey, if these are the only songs the Twitter account tweeted, they must be early in the game.

I like how they've brought ranks back, according to the tweets.

It's GH so even if they're early tier songs they're probably 70 songs in.

As opposed to the incredible difficulty that was RB2's soundtrack.

GH6 will be the most difficult music video game since GH3, SWAN SONG BABY.

RB2 has a tighter engine making stuff harder
RB2 has DLC


A game called Guitar Hero having five or so fun guitar tracks is a joke. Nobody buys that shit for drums or vocals, at least give one instrument a decent game.

If the GH6 soundtrack comes out and doesn't have way more difficult songs than GH5 and GHWT, I'll agree with you.

*looks at GH6 songs*

Looks like you will be agreeing with csb come September. :(
 
So the Creator's Club has been broken for the last few hours. Hopefully this doesn't go all weekend...
 
Money for Nothing is not going to be very good on guitar.

At all.

Love the song, but it's slight variations on the opening riff for seven minutes.
 
:lol :lol :lol @ GH6 info.

I'm level 22...where you at? Like Prestige 8 or something? There's a reason why I haven't played it since the beginning of December. I don't suck, the game sucks.
Prestige 1. And as a reminder: I had a 1.5 k/d ratio from hour one. Just saying.

Very true, I just wanted to give some support for the fact that it's a good song.

Good thing there are other instruments then right? And Phoenix songs are great on Drums/Vox.
