I'm not saying that a bunch of people are all over RBN and there are hundreds of awesome tracks on there. I'm just saying that if you're just starting RB and you own both consoles (Wii doesn't count), then why wouldn't you go with the one that gives you more options? There is good stuff on RBN for everyone, even if it's not that much right now for those picky people.

You don't seriously believe that do you? there are a handful out of hundreds that are worth anything. Rock band songs are either good because they are good songs that everyone at a party knows or because they have good charts. The majority of the tracks on RBN aren't that well known/

 

[Xevren]

RBN rules, you guys are crazy.

 

[ravien56]

RBN hasn't been that great so far, but if it picks up some steam, and labels see a profit, it could be gangbusters. I bought PP (LL) but only because it was .99; I would have passed at 1.99. Waiting for Clutch and...well, I think that is it out of the releases so far.

Its only $1? I gotta get that then.

The idea behind RBN rules. Right now it needs some work.

Yup. It's a fun song as well; like all their stuff so far.

The song on drums looked kinda meh except for the end. So epic.

Don't buy if you only want to play drums.

I meant there are hundreds of songs. Don't know how that "awesome" slipped in there.

I own a little over 60, and they're all fun.

 

[TheGreatDave]

RBN is fine for what it is. I expected very few bands I care about, but there's some tracks on there I'm glad for, and the overall charting quality is good. The issue is really just that I don't care about most the bands, and I'm at the point where I need to like more than the DLC's chart to buy it. But I bet when RB3 comes out I'll pick up a bunch of RBN tracks.

I've got 8 I think, I'd probably have more but I'm on PS3. I've played three of them at least 5 times each the other ones aren't so great though. Theres some goofy charting here and there and the mixing is suspect in a few of the songs. Other than that I like the service and they've managed to port over all the songs that I was interested in already.

I think it's a good thing for me at least, that the songs aren't updated like they are on 360. I've wasted enough money on DLC that I've played twice or something just because I wanted to buy it all.

 

[ravien56]

Its like that for a lot of songs. I got a bunch of friends who come over a few times a week and they do guitar/bass but if its only $1, why not.

 

[MrOctober]

Push Push is fucking awesome and a steal at 1 dollar.

Bang Camaro fucking rules.

This! So glad it was my first RBN purchase (lol PS3). Still need to try it on hard drums though, just for the epic ending.

 

[Terrordactyl]

IMO Push Push isn't worth a dollar for the drum chart, all bang camaro songs are that way though. It's worth 2 for the guitar chart though.

If RBN was an Activision product you would think it was the greatest thing ever.

 

[Grecco]

Ive checked RBN once. The day it came out. Havent since.

Your loss.

 

[Costanza]

I haven't even checked it once. There's nothing I care about on there.

 

[TheGreatDave]

That would explain why I love GHTunes.

I troll RBN for fun, but honestly it's not that I think it's bad, I just feel it's targeted to a fairly specific audience that I don't identify myself with as much.

 

[Archie]

I haven't even checked it once. There's nothing I care about on there.

I can't say I'm surprised. You unarguably have the worst taste out of anyone at this forum.

 

[Costanza]

Look who's talking. You like Black Sabbath and Megadeth.

 

[Archie]

Community avatar.

 

[Costanza]

Community avatar.

Yeah, the best show ever. Just validates my awesome taste.

 

[Archie]

The last time I watched an episode of Community I chuckled ONCE.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Yeah, the best show ever. Just validates my awesome taste.

I forgot to watch the episode, but I still know you're out of your fucking mind. Stop it, dude. Just stop it.

 

[XShagrath]

Wow, even Dave's telling you to shut up, costanza!

 

[TheGreatDave]

Things I agree with Costanza on:

Most TV (fuck Community)
Music

Things I disagree with Costanza on:

COMMUNITY.
Seinfeld sucks.
He said some woman was hot and I didn't agree.

 

[Grecco]

RB Gaf agrees that Community sucks .

 

[MrOctober]

You do not agree on fucking music. You might over lap like 3 or 4 bands total dude, don't kid yourself.

 

[TheGreatDave]

As far as people in this thread go, there's not many people I'm more in tune with. Motion Picture Soundtrack comes to mind.

I'm listening to Bob Dylan now though, I bet Costanza hates him.

 

[Costanza]

nah, I dig Bob Dylan.

 

[MrOctober]

Costanza are you 14 years old? Your post in the "Educate me In Classic Movies" thread is so retarded I want to cause you actual bodily harm.

 

[Remfin]

You do not agree on fucking music. You might over lap like 3 or 4 bands total dude, don't kid yourself.

They definitely agree, it's just negative agreement, not positive: they both think everyone else's favorite music sucks :lol

 

[TheGreatDave]

See, Costanza's awesome.

I only listen to two of his albums though, so I don't know if the majority of his stuff is shit.

 

[Costanza]

I need to dig into his catalog eventually. Only heard a random assortment of songs, but I'm definitely a fan of what I've heard.

You don't know if the majority of Bod Dylan's stuff is shit? Are you fucking kidding?

It's not shit, not even close. That's not even funny.

 

[XShagrath]

Costanza are you 14 years old? Your post in the "Educate me In Classic Movies" thread is so retarded I want to cause you actual bodily harm.

Wow. You and me both. That comment was borderline retarded.

 

[TheGreatDave]

It's not shit, not even close. That's not even funny.

It's more that I just stick to Blonde on Blonde and Blood on the Tracks. His other stuff could be amazing but it's so overwhelming I've never known where to begin.

Simple Twist of Fate, ;_;

[MrOctober]

Going on 12.

 

[birdman]

Sometimes I think Costanza makes these idiotic statements so everyone remembers him. Maybe he longs to never be the person who is forgotten in time, a person whose name would not be muttered even by the ones who find his body after he has shook this mortal coil, a former shell for this poor man's soul. We should all take a moment to really think about why we live: is it to experience life, or to create some sort of legacy so others will want to remember us?






Either that or he's just fucking stupid.

 

[Ridley327]

I know which one I'd circle on the exam!

 

[Affeinvasion]

There are three kinds of trolls in this thread.

Archie: the jester troll
Costanza: the Karate Kid villain troll
GreatDave: The psychotic Baldwin brother troll

 

[birdman]

I need help on some music guys. What is the best Beck album?

 

[Affeinvasion]

Depends on if you want good music or strange sonic ego-masturbation.

Spoiler

I like Guero as an album

 

[TheGreatDave]

I need help on some music guys. What is the best Beck album?

SEA CHANGE.

Side note: Modern Guilt was very good.

 

[Christoff Yurievich]

SEA CHANGE.

Side note: Modern Guilty was very good.

I can't disagree with this. Also: Guero had some good points - mostly the 8-bit variations EP though - and Modern Guilt was alright. No Sea Change, but then what is.

 

[Ridley327]

They might be the popular choices, but Odelay and Midnite Vultures are both awesome.

 

[Affeinvasion]

I just can't get into Beck as much as I used to...and I used to really like his stuff.

Ween, however, never gets old. Just wanted to plug them. They should get more love.

 

[TheGreatDave]

I just like how real Sea Change is. Modern Guilt was similar in some ways; it was more stripped back and let the songs speak for themselves, but with some cool production that kept it kinda modern sounding.


I like Ween!

 

[birdman]

I'm not in the mood for an album like Sea Change right now, and Guero is too hip-hop for what I'm trying to get at the moment. I'm iffy on Modern Guilt.

Odelay feels like it's scratching the itch though.

I do appreciate your help guys.
