If it is an issue of licensing, what about a different solution:

A "Most Played/Frequency" sorting option

It would basically work out the same, but the list would sort from most played to least...

So, just in giving more information...

I got the Gold icon at a totally random moment that wasn't tied to any Achievements at all:

I had 32 achievements for more than one full day of playing...

That shouldn't be what is necessary to both get Gold Stars and get an Achievement. I understand Achievements being tied to Expert playing, but they should still be "accessible" to anyone that can...

I'm less sweating gold stars as I am sweating Achievements. I'm a completionist with it comes to my Xbox games... :)





I don't care about comparing my gamerpoints to anyone else, so keep...

Thanks skytt... but unfortunately, I don't know anyone else "good enough" to get gold stars at will on other instruments. I don't have any problems with regular RB songs (at least not that anyone...

I hear you dave... but I do disagree. Achievements shouldn't be either impossible (which a few of the songs appear to be) or inaccessible to only a select few (the Scorehero "squeezing" crowd). I'd...

Look, we all know you guys have a tendency to "forget about the bassist". But in this case, we're talking about Paul McCartney. Surely you guys could have made sure that the Gold Star achievements...

I have an uncle with stock in Pepsi, so I buy it all the time anyway (doesn't hurt that it's been my beverage of choice since I was a kid)...

The convenience store across the street from my office...

Sales & Marketing at its finest: the 4 songs that will likely get 1,000x as many downloads are $2 each while the "indie bands" are $1 each... but no, HMX isn't like every other company and putting...

I hadn't thought about that... I'll concur with your sentiment. Probably worth at least waiting until later in the day on Tuesday to see someone's chart on YouTube and hear the lyrics...

Billy Idol and Tom Petty - I'd download just about anything by either of them. I've been hoping for a LONG time for Tom Petty; always thought the guitar solo in "Runnin' Down a Dream" would be a...

Some good songs in there...

But here's 2 problems I have with overall DLC selection at this point:

1. This is exactly why having 2 major rhythm game franchises is BAD for the consumer. Too...

Grateful Dead Pack 01
Boston Pack 01
Pearl Jam "Ten"
AC/DC Track Pack

I know it doesn't fit the poll exactly, but I also have all of the Weezer songs so far...

Since there's not another option, I chose "wimp out"...

RB is fun and all, but with my last 10 minutes, I'd be cuddled up with my wife & kids...

If the experience were about authenticity and immersion, then they wouldn't program the songs so that we had to be 100% accurate on every note. Live performances are ROUTINELY going to sound...

Wow, truly good week for a change... thanks!

I know we're having fun in this thread, and that's great... but I did want to make a comment on things...

One word: agenda

There's a push in the USA to make Country music more mainstream than...

Does anyone know if there is a songbook out there that has all the lyrics to the songs in RB/RB2? I think that would be an amazing addition to our gameplay experience...

The only reason 99% isn't "as good as" an FC (or even 100% with an overstrum/hit) is because of all of the perfection complexes people have...

The thing everyone forgets is that most musicians...

I haven't made it a point to compare the list on PepsiRockBand to all DLC... what is the most recent stuff they are offering? I think a lot of people would be curious if it's worth saving some of...
