Too many awesome games are coming out in too short a timespan, I can't keep up financially :'(

D Mac 05-16-2008 03:06 AM

Preordered Disturbed "Indestructible" from Best Buy.com, so I will be getting the 2 free tracks come June 3. :cool:

Kane Knight 05-16-2008 09:55 AM

Why is that a good thing?

D Mac 05-16-2008 10:06 AM

Because they rule? Behind Met. of course.

Kane Knight 05-16-2008 10:23 AM

LOL. What kind of drugs do you take to evoke such a huge gay crush on shitty bands?

D Mac 05-16-2008 11:39 AM

I thought you liked them. :?:

Blitz 05-16-2008 06:42 PM

Y2Ant 05-16-2008 08:53 PM

So apparently I get paid the same day this game comes out here. BOOYEAH

Disturbed316 05-19-2008 05:42 AM

Not long to go now, have now idea how I'm gonna get this thing home though.

Requiem 05-19-2008 05:45 AM

Saw the charts for Hysteria on youtube. Love it already and I haven't even played it yet.

D Mac 05-20-2008 12:56 PM

Anyone get any of these songs yet?

jcmoorehead 05-20-2008 01:03 PM

Play.com have sent out my instruments, only waiting on Game to send out the game itself. Also for those in the UK all the DLC for Rock Band is now up on Live for you to download if you somehow already have the game or want to download the stuff early.

D Mac 05-20-2008 02:24 PM

Got Hysteria and New Wave. Thinking about Countdown to Insanity.

Hier Kommt Alex sucks IMO

D Mac 05-20-2008 02:25 PM

How many songs do you have total? Including regular, DLC and bonus songs.

I have 90 songs total in this game. :cool:

jcmoorehead 05-20-2008 02:44 PM

At the moment none as I don't have the game just yet but I'm looking at the DLC List now and at what I should get. Looking for recomendations.

Following are what I'm looking at getting though:
* Metallica "Ride the Lightning"
* Metallica "Blackened"
* Metallica "And Justice for All"
* Police "Roxanne"
* David Bowie "Heroes"*
* Black Sabbath "War Pigs"*
* Rush "Limelight"*
* Iron Maiden "Number of the Beast"*
* Oasis "Don't Look Back in Anger"
* Oasis "Wonderwall"
* Rush "Working Man"*
* Coheed and Cambria "Ten Speed (Of God's Blood and Burial)"

Tornado 05-21-2008 08:58 AM

My Instruments and Game were dispatched today, long wait is finally over.

U-Warrior 05-21-2008 10:26 AM

I have 150 songs, altogether.

#BROKEN Hasney 05-21-2008 01:37 PM

FUCK YOU IMGBURN.... My last DVD was written incorrectly for this

also FUCK YOU LEEDS COMPUTER SHOPS.... How can NONE of them sell DVD+R DLs!

Disturbed316 05-21-2008 02:13 PM

Already bought about seven songs for this, even though I dont have it yet :$

Y2Ant 05-22-2008 07:01 PM

I am going to murder everyone I lay eyes upon if I can't get my hands on this game tomorrow. Maybe I should have pre-ordered it, but that doesn't mean people aren't going to die if it sells out before I get it. :mad:

Tornado 05-22-2008 08:11 PM

My game arrived this morning (thursday), instruments are due tomorrow (friday), so i'm just playing through the Guitar parts until then.

Y2Ant 05-23-2008 12:59 PM

I :love: this game.

Disturbed316 05-23-2008 05:03 PM

Awesome, awesome and awesome. I :heart: this game.

Wasn't too bad getting this home in the end, just abit bulky rather than heavy. Completed the drum and guitar solo tours on easy, but it says I've only done 30 of 60 songs, are the other songs from the bonus tours?

Played some multiplayer earlier, only with one other person on the drums, but to have two people in the same room playing this game is amazing.

jcmoorehead 05-23-2008 05:20 PM

Nearly finished the Guitar Solo tour on Medium. Downloaded a shit load of DLC looking forward to playing through it all tomorrow when the girlfriends round. Tried my hand at the drums and those are incredibly fun to play albeit hard to get used to. Tried vocals and failed miserably, any tips there?

Kane Knight 05-23-2008 10:38 PM

Sing on key.

:shifty:

One of the first things I'd mention is make sure to take advantage of octaves. You can sing up an octave or down, it doesn't matter. You probably already know that, but it doesn't seem to register with some people. If you don't know the song, you can bullshit it with the vocals on. I prefer to have the vocals off, but some of these songs I don't know or barely know, so I fake it...

D Mac 05-24-2008 02:30 AM

You can't bullshit the vocals on hard.

D Mac 05-24-2008 02:30 AM

We need to have a TPWW guitar score duel tournament or some shit.

Kalyx triaD 05-24-2008 02:32 AM

I finished "Dirty Little Secret" on vocals and guitar both on expert.

Its... a lukewarm accomplishment.

It'll come down to me and Extreme Angle.

U-Warrior 05-24-2008 03:38 AM

Looks like the dlc for tuesday is gonna be that Disturbed pack. They are kinda hit or miss with me, so I'll have to check the tube before i snag these.

Extreme Angle 05-24-2008 05:46 AM

So... I have around 500 saved up. so tempted to buy this but... summer is coming and I need a new downhill bike...
I heard the guitar on this game was pretty lame... like the hardest song for guitar is like free bird on expert... which isn't hard tbh.

Requiem 05-24-2008 05:57 AM

The guitar on this game is more realistic. As in, they actually got real musicians to make the note charts. They don't add in triple chords or random fucking cord changups for no reason.. etc. That said, guitar is still very fun regardless of the difficulty level. That, and there are a lot more songs now with the DLC.

Hell, the drums alone are worth buying this game for if you want a challenge.

jcmoorehead 05-24-2008 06:06 AM

I find the Guitar to be fairly easy compared with GH3 but a lot more fun. I've only played through on Medium at the moment but I'm gonna move up to hard today but the songs are a hell of a lot more fun to play then it was in GH3.

It feels as if you are actually playing the song and you enjoy playing the song wheras in GH3 for the majority of the songs it just feels like you're hitting buttons and the only though you have it "I can't wait till this piece of shit is over."

Disturbed316 05-24-2008 06:56 AM

Yeah, I think the guitar section is much better than GH3. They GH turned into how stupidly difficult they could make it for people, rather than making it fun to play, which is probably why I havent touched it since it came out.

Hope they put some HIM DLC up at some point in the future, some of their songs would be perfect for this.

I think it's gonna be the Cars album. It's being advertised on Live.

Disturbed will probably hit June 3rd when the new album comes out.

So...Don't...Bullshit...On...Hard?

Or don't play on hard when you don't know the song or are new to the game?

Stop me if I'm making too much sense.
