Hi everyone,

My friend was recently in the US and picked up a copy of Rock Band for me, however I can't find where to download the downloadable content from.

Can anyone confirm if this content is available at present in Canada? And if so where can I find the download section within the game?

Thanks!

While this is assumed, there's no proof of that as of yet. At least nothing I've seen. Closest I've seen is HMXSean saying DLC *should* be available in other regions when the game is released there. But no indication of whether the content available will match that of the US.

You need to clarify what system you're using.

All Rock Band DLC has been available on the PSN in Canada since launch day. Not so on the 360 however.

Although I appreciate your cautious approach, I would seriously doubt that any content would be held back in Canada. As far as I know, this hasn't happened in any game I've played and wanted DLC. Mostly Forza 2 and GH2 & 3.

I would be shocked if content was witheld from Canada.

Agreed on the GH2 and 3 front, though they're no where near as ambitious as RB. Licensing is where the issue may lie as a lot of master recordings are being used where that's not the case with GH2 and only some of the GH3 stuff. Obviously XBL Video Market place (which is all DLC) has been withheld outside of the US.. of course, due to licensing.

I'd like to think it's not going to be an issue with this stuff and that Canadian (or worldwide) rights will be aquired but as I've been saying (in other threads) all things considered, I'm not taking any announcement for granted until it specifically lists "in Canada" or "outside the US". The question(s) have been asked, just wating for some form of official statement.
