Who agrees that we need some Styx in Rock Band 2? I'm talking about Renegade/Too Much Time on My Hands/Mr. Roboto.

Lets get this Styx track pack up on xbl/psn ASAP!

Renegade was, and still is one of my all time favorite songs. I think it would be awesome to play.

Good point, Where ARE the Styx songs?

I concur on this.

Also, Cold War would be good. If not that, then Renegade. Too much time on my hands and Mr. Roboto get a bit too much airplay and aren't that fun to listen to for me anymore.

Come Sail Away is fun, but I didn't think it would translate well into Rock Band 2. I'm glad that at least a few people have sense, and agree that Styx is definitely being overlooked. :)

Paradise Theater Full Album DLC?

Your fooling yourself if you don't believe it. Your killing yourself if you don't believe it.
Yea STYX is much needed.

Forget songs like Mr. Roboto, and Come Sail Away, for Styx to be AMAZING in Rock Band 2, you need Renegade, Suite Madame Blue, possibly Grand Illusion, and Blue Collar Man. THOSE are Rock Band songs. Anyone that says differently is obviously just going off of their most popular things and doesn't really know the best Styx stuff. Suite Madame Blue has an AMAZING guitar part as well as a fricken sweet vocal part.

I agree with your general idea, personally I think Best of Times would be a good rock ballad to add to the game. I am kind of disappointed with the lack of acoustic songs, but Styx is a must have.

Bless you for making this post.

"Renegade," "Come Sail Away," "The Grand Illusion," "Blue Collar Man," "Too Much Time on My Hands," "Miss America."

Styx is the band that made me like music many years ago. They were also my first concert, saw them when I was in the 4th grade.

Surprisingly, this song could work. Heavy on piano intro, but when the guitar really kicks in, be prepared for a 5th tier fret workout (at least), and bass and drums come into the song a minute in. It's exact opposite, meaning Vocals have a whole minute of play the instruments have to wait...

I am suprised Styx isn't in the game, a majority of the songs were written by Dennis DeYong (ex-pianist) who really seems like a cool guy. Although no longer in the band, he has the rights (at least the Mr Roboto "Killroy" era songs) so things should go well. Also, Tommy Shaw and James Young are on tour, hope maybe they'd shed some light upon Styx DLC if it had to be only newer stuff

I'm surprised Suite Madam Blue isn't mentioned much considering that's one of the best guitar and drum songs ever 6:30 sec song, next to that is Borrowed Time, Too much Time On my Hands, Lonely People and definitely Midnight Ride. Also I'd like to play Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac and God Of War by Def Leppard, that opening rift is the best period. If you haven't heard God Of War by Def Leppard download it.

Yes! We totally need Styx... Come Sail Away has too much piano to work well. But Mr. Roboto and Renegade would rock. (lol I made a funny)

Renegade? Yes.

Mr. Roboto? PleasePLEASE no. Nothing off that godawful sorry excuse for a rock opera called "Kilroy Was Here." That crappy synthpop song and album was the reason Styx broke up.

There are a lot of Styx songs that I would love, but I'd be satisfied with just "Renegade" at this point.

Blue Collar Man, Renagade, Great White Hope, Castle Walls, Man in The Wilderness, Snowblind, Half Penny, Two Penny.

If they used the live version of come sail away from Caught in the Act I think it would work very nicely and offset the long piano intro. Baba O'riely also had a long synth intro but it still rocks to play on guitar. Show me the way would also be a great inclusion.

Just a few that I'd love to see: Renegade, Miss America, The Grand Illusion, and Suite Madame Blue.
