Rock Band: AC/DC Reviewed @ Gameplayer

Does the biggest rock band in the world make for an rockin' add-on back for Rock Band. Not quite, according to the review that has gone up at gameplayer.

"The tracklist is epic. It'd want to be, because it's really the only thing the game has going for it. There are just 18 tracks, which is testing the limits of the $49.95 price tag, but what a gig. 'Thunderstruck', 'Shoot to Thrill', 'Back in Black', 'Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be', 'Heatseeker', 'Fire Your Guns', 'Jailbreak', 'The Jack', 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap', 'Moneytalks', 'Hells Bells', 'High Voltage', 'Whole Lotta Rosie', 'You Shook Me All Night Long', 'T.N.T.', 'Let There Be Rock', 'Highway To Hell' and 'For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)' – there really isn't a bad one in the bunch."

Bon Scott was a God.. It's a shame he's gone.

Um... It is 'only' $39.95, not $49.95. To Bad he had to say the price was higher in his review to make th score look more apporporiate.

40 bucks for 18 songs is still a little steep for me, but now in Canada, most places have put it on for $29.95... so its getting closer to being acceptable.

"The Rock Band Network has gone live on Xbox 360 with a catalog of 105 songs. With over 4,000 registered authors and peer reviewers participating in the program, we're guessing a lot more tracks are in the pipe. Song prices currently range from 80 to 160 ($1 and $2)."

Has EA given up on Rock Band?

MCV: Conspicuous by its absence in EA's forward planning for the financial year ahead was any mention of the once golden franchise that is Rock Band, leading to speculation that the publisher could be looking to drop its distribution agreement for the game.

Furthermore, with the end of its current deal with developer Harmonix now in site, EA has refused to offer a concrete commitment to extend its current distribution deal with Viacom.

I can't understand you gamers.

First, everybody complains that a numbered Guitar Hero sequel is coming every year and that it is destroying the music game industry.

Now, people are complaining that Harmonix is not releasing a new Rock Band so soon, sticking with our beloved weekly DLCs.

I really don't hope they release Rock Band 3 in 2010. Also, I don't know why Green Day: Rock Band isn't in this year's schedule. Not that I care, of course =P

10 Ways to Fix Rock Band

From Terminal Gamer:

"Here is a list of 10 new ideas that Harmonix should think about implementing in RB3. I'm talking new stuff here, so having songs from RB1/RB2/DLC be exportable to RB3 is a given, as is online multiplayer and some form of career mode. I also tried to think of things that haven't been mentioned before, so as much as we all want it, you won't find "LED ZEPPELIN" anywhere on this list."

I had no idea it was even broken.

Looks like these are ways the game could improve, but I'd hardly say any of these would really 'fix' it. Jukebox would be nice, no pedal is available in Lego RB, and customization will come in time but really I'd like them to keep focusing on the basics/songs.
