Not a matter of any great urgency, but I'll ask anyway: Will there be a song rating system as in RB3? Even if there's no "random song" feature (although it's kind of hard to imagine there won't be), it would still be a good utility for people with huge song libraries. I can't always remember how much or how little I like every song I have.

I always thought one of RB3's best features was the lighter options. My music taste exploded because I could finally remember what songs I liked and play them again.

This was asked at the panel. They said all BREs have Expert charts for the sake of animations so they just read those. Only got a chance to play the game once. I played Walk by Foo Fighters. The game is incredibly fun and, if it's available to preorder a DL code at any point, I will fully pay it off the second I can.

We actually author that part of the song on expert anyway when they go through the regular song authoring process, as we need it for animations and such. So, we just take that authoring and "Blitzify" it.

Just one question:

Does this game have lasers?

One of the cool features of Rock Band Blitz is the "Recommended" feed. This screen greets you every time you load up the game, and is a fresh feed of recommended songs each time you start it up. This will suggest challenges for you to send to a friend, show you songs that are new to the Music Store, taunt you with songs your friends are beating you on, etc. One of the cool things it'll also do is prompt you to play songs you haven't posted any scores on. In effect, the game knows which songs you own that you might have forgotten you own!

Also, Random Song is currently an option in the game's song list as well.

Wow, really? Would have been cool to have an option to turn off BRE's in RB3 to see (and likely get whooped by) what lies underneath, something like the clear overdrive activation lane

Would love that feature, can't stand dumbed down BREs.

From what I gathered, Big Rock Endings are only authored for Expert guitar and bass, while keys and drums are animated separately from the playable charts, which are blank during BREs.

There's a bottle rocket.
