In addition to the regular Rock Blogs provided by the HMX Community Team, the Lead Designer for RB2 (hmxspraynwipe aka Dan T) will be popping in to bring you some cool behind-the-scenes info on the development process for the upcoming sequel to Rock Band. You can check out his first Rock Band 2 related blog post below.

Rockin'. Can't wait til the full game.

Very excited for the game as well. Waiting to see the setlist and any avatar changes as well. The online functionability also makes me want to know more. Maybe I can finally find some people with DLC or people who don't quit mid song.

Very cool, looking forward to future updates!

Edit: You should totally do daily information updates up to launch date like the Smash Bros. Brawl blog. That was great.

This is amazing, for RB2 to be released so soon. Anyway, hope the setlist is as good as RB1. Can't wait to see any changes made to the tours (always did want to play an online world tour) and hopefully more customization to characters.

HMXspraynwipe genius name and a genius guy

Agreed. I tuned in every day for that, and I'd love to see HMX follow the format. I think revealing one song per day or something similar would have people paying attention :D.

Hey Henry, didn't Dan (HMXspraynwipe) do QA for the original Rock Band? Or at least for DLC? His name sounds familiar and I don't know why.

Anyway, thanks for making a RB2 blog. :)

awesome. Thanks a bunch for gettin' the blogs going so quick and keeping this in mind :)

EDIT: Koenn, they blogged regularly up to the release of RB so this start is a good sign of blog love to come. I don't see daily blogs happening (not a whole lot of info than can be talked about right now) but between these new RB2 blogs and the normal set of weekly blogs I think our appetite will be filled :P

double EDIT: jeccaneko, Dan T was on the design team for the original RB as a senior designer.

I was really hoping we'd see these again. Always interesting to get a developer's perspective.


Get Canfield back here STAT. CHRIS, I KNOW YOURE OUT THERE.

:D
