Speculation: It's Half the Fun Dammit

[Xzyliac]

I feel dead inside after spoiling the whole main setlist. Now a month without on disk tracks to speculate. The board won't be the same. I feel like they might as well release the game tommorow.

How do you guys feel? Am I alone?

[Eman311]

Nope, gives me a month to learn all the lyrics :)

SOUNDS LOSTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
STREAMING INTO THE MAGNETSSSSSSSSSSS

[AVC808]

I was about to post the same thing. I'm thinking I wont even go near the rock band demo at best buy because on release day I wont have that urgency and excitement to play the game anymore if I already play all the songs and stuff.

What are we going to talk about now?

[bumbousdude25]

Hey, what about the Best Buy demo?


EDIT: Sorry AVC didn't see your post.

[undertow]

Yes, I agree they should release the game tomorrow! ;)

[Eman311]

Yea, i don't know about going to the tour now. Save that excitement for later.

[Xzyliac]

Yes, I agree they should release the game tomorrow! ;)

Seriously! The game's done, BB has full setups, songlist has been released, post BB demo I expect vids to be flying left and right.

Well only a few more weeks. Wish there were more unlockables to look forward to.

Well, there's still bonus tracks to announce (not that interesting) and maybe more features (small ones) yet to be announced...


EDIT: Also, the instruments may not be ENTIRELY finished... see this (http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/830/830759p1.html).

Bonus tracks and DLC leave plenty of mystery IMHO. :cool:

My last thread of hype is the eventual Vagiant track announcement.

See? Thank you Apples.


EDIT: Btw, thanks for moving my thread about TTFATF, whoever did that. I accidentally put it in the wrong place.

[Eman311]

Though it was some song called seven?

[Xzyliac]

See? Thank you Apples.

My thing is as cool DLC is it's always there. Not the same as on disc.

Maybe at this point I just need to get my hands on it. That or hear some awesome(!) bonus tracks (Vagiant, Royal Crowns, That Handsome Devil, Neighborhoods, The Long Blondes, Von Bondies, The Beets, got a million of 'em).

I didn't hear anything.

Woah. Massive secks.

[CableCarrier]

We still need to see if that thing about Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld ends up panning out, and if there's any Dethklok anyway.

[bumbousdude25]

Hey Xzyl, check this out bro! BB doesn't have the full game after all! Nazriel's post.

[Eman311]

Yea kotaku says the demo is only 15 songs.

[Xzyliac]

Yeah that pretty much got me repumped. Especially because I have crap to retrun anyway. :D

[rockst01]

Ahh I miss the magic of not knowing what tracks were in Rock Band. Where there was still a fools hope for some Guns and Roses, AC/DC and Led Zeppelin and where Fall Out Boy was a band that was only mentioned in "Bands that should never be in Rock Band' threads.

Ehh... don't worry. GnR, AC/DC and surely LZ will be DLC... maybe...eventually. :rolleyes:

[Xzyliac]

Yeah I miss being Led Zepplins *****. Hanging onto that blind hope and doing anything to get their tracks.

Ah, I remember chiming in on every "Welcome to the Jungle for Rock Band" thread and saying "No way Paradise City would be way better!" But now I would gladly take Welcome to the Jungle over Fall out Boy or The Killers.

Hell yeah! Damn... I realize they need variety in the music, but still...

I remember saying this on nearly every thread I posted on when I first joined:


PARADISE CITY FOR ROCK BAND!!!

[the_spike]

I'm not getting RB for the setlist. I like some of the songs but most of them are meh.

I'm getting it for the band play and future awesome stuff.

Definitely. True that brother.


The setlist is important, but it's not gonna stop me from laying down my $170. The rest of the features (and the other good songs) are what matters most.

Maybe now we can go one step further:

APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION FOR DLC!

Announcing this would more than make up for the dissapointment of the final few tracks (Run to the hills is awesome though)

Looking at the lack of metal Iron Maiden is great. Wait where's the guy with an Iron Maiden avatar? He needs to join me in basking ourselves with win. Iron Maiden fans unite!

I may not be the one you speak of, but when I heard Run to The Hills was announced I broke down in manly tears of awesome.

Indeed! :D

Now I feel like there's little reason to check in on the forums everyday for a while. I can't wait to play this thing, but I guess I can finally not be obsessive about it anymore since the main setlist has been completely revealed, lol.

I probably still will. Mainly because you guys are all my homies. :D

I'm with ya man. :)

[Catalytic]

You can still speculate about DLC which should be interesting. They are going to want to keep releasing interesting stuff to keep interest up (and increase profits). Each new DLC song/album has the potential to interest another buyer, so I would expect some fantastic songs to come down the pipe in the coming months.

[espher]

I just hope it doesn't turn out like the Virtual Console, where every Monday I get my hopes up for Super Mario RPG or a surprise choice like a Shining Force game or Breath of Fire II, and instead get TurboGrafx Shooter #28 or (now) NeoGeo Fighting Game #91832 ;)

[Kylekillgannon]

You know, that's just what we need to do to make ourselves look like the friendly competitor, crash our game right in front of the others

[mattitude]

I'm with you. RB was in Amherst, MA yesterday, which is about a ten minute drive from me, but I chose not to go. And I also choose not to partake in any demo.

The anticipation will make the payoff all the more sweeter. So I'm not going to play, let alone observe, any real gameplay until the game is mine and in my hands on the 20th.

[WingsOfSteel]

Maybe now we can go one step further:

APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION FOR DLC!

PIECE OF MIND FOR DLC!
BOSTON FOR DLC!
2112 FOR DLC!

[espher]

Sweet for DLC?

Little Willy, Wig Wam Bam, Block Buster, Hell Raiser, Teenage Rampage, Action, Fox on the Run, Love is Like Oxygen... prz.

Especially Action.

Oh God, Action.

[Kylekillgannon]

PIECE OF MIND FOR DLC!

BIG LETTERS!!!

[ZkDotNet]

I was just thinking about this. I'm kinda glad that some of the epic songs in the game weren't on the tour (and I'm assuming BB demo) and that the gameplay footage has been limited.

Knowing the songs is one thing, but the charts are going to a surprise. (The exact opposite of GH3; I've seen most of the expert charts now.)

[JackBNimble]

There is still speculation but it's all about the DLC.We need info on what's next to come on the DLC list.

[WingsOfSteel]

Sweet for DLC?

Desolation Boulevard would kick ass.

[bumbousdude25]

BIG LETTERS!!!

OMG! I STARTED A TREND!


No, seriously though, WingsofSteel, I'm with you on 2112 and Boston.

[TK-757]

Seeing the game & being able to play a few songs when the Tour came to Seattle was the thing that actually got me REALLY hyped for this game. Both my girlfriend and I were HOOKED after playing 1 song. (We then decided to skip the first 30 minutes of the concert we were at just to sit & play)

If anything, I think checking out the demos will get you MORE excited, not less. :D
