The PS3/Wii RBN Songs Request Thread

[ricecake]

Earlier it was mentioned that if demand was high enough, they might still release some RBN1 tracks though RBN2. If that's not the case, I'm a little irked that tracks that I've seen requested here for months never made it over.

I'm irked that we got all those Main Drag songs, but are still missing "Cease and Desist" so the Workaholic goal is forever locked.

Again:

RBN1 (Yes, I know we might not get any, but I'll keep asking for it till we do)
"Until the Night" - Free Spirit
"Pale Sister of Light" - Free Spirit
"Big Bad World One" - Jonathan Coulton (I'll admit I'm not sure I'd get it, but it's the only one we're missing)

RBN2
"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" - Eiffel 65
"Buried Cold (RB3 version)" - Rose of Jericho
"Find Beauty" - Rose of Jericho
"Midnight Eyes (RB3 version)" - Rose of Jericho
"Schizophrenia" - Jukebox the Ghost
"Empire" - Jukebox the Ghost
"Country Song" - Seether
"Hangman" - Drugstore


Seriously, why hasn't Blue made it over? If the playstats on Keldon are any indicator, that song has sold phenominally well (it's in the top 5 most played RBN songs and has over 10,000 unique user ID plays online). This is the 3rd week in a row we haven't gotten it while we've gotten RBN2 stuff.

Are we ever going to get, George and Ringos packs?
Like : It don't come easy, What is life, ect. You left us hanging on for more Beatle's
DLC's
Beatles rock band is your best work by far.

This is for Rock Band Network songs that are already release on the 360 to come over to the PS3. You want the ultimate setlist.

I'm still peeved that we got multiples of tracks from the same artist, and yet more Amberian Dawn on RBN 2.0 now.

RBN 1.0 Requests

"Dancefloor" by Apples in Stereo
"How We Operate" by Gomez

RBN 2.0 Requests

"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" by Eiffel 65
"Sick, Sick, Sick" by Bayside

Just please cut down on the amount of metal tracks and releasing a stack of tracks by the same artist in the same week, and how about releasing 10 RBN 2.0 tracks a week on the PS3?

It's obviously not a Sony limitation. If they could put 70 tracks up in one week (yes, taking the PSN downtime into account), there's no reason why they can't put 10 up a week. Or, is there some BS exclusivity still with the 360?

To be fair, they were likely testing those tracks during the PSN outage.

But they did let us pass 10 RBN songs a week for a while, so maybe a few more a week would be nice.

Oh no, no more RBN 1.0 songs??!?!

If we never get Bornholm or A Wilhelm Scream I'm going to be super depressed.

@HMCLachesis

OK, thx for clarification. So 10 RBN per week is possible or it was an exception? Because PS3 (belive Wii too, but dont have console and dont follow what happening there) have to much les RBN songs compared to X360. I agree with that 30 days (or so) exclusive but X360 in average have more than 20 songs per week and PS3 get 'just' 5. I know that sound unthankfull but I just wish that we (PS3 owners) have more that now. So HMX, is 'just' 5 RBN songs is some sort of exclusive agreement with Microsoft or it was Sonys 'fault'?

And in the end that not all sound 'too bad moody' I still think that RBN is a great service and looking forward to see more of those 'not-known' bands.
And hope that one day Downhill by Rishloo will come to PS3. (If im right that whole Scissorlips album will be released on RBN and there is already 2 or 3 songs on X360).

Wii isn't getting RBN tracks, possibly because they weren't worth the effort (which required more work than moving them to the PS3).

The limit was from Sony so it didn't interfere with normal DLC, though since we were getting 10 a week for a while, I wonder if they can't push that further.

[Graffin]

I don't have a problem with relatively "unknown" or "unpopular" band's content appearing on the RBN. Infact, i've quite enjoyed some of it.

But, when a bulk of it comes from ONE artist or it's mostly in the metal genre, it's not really appealing for vocalists to be singing (or screaming, or making pig snorting sounds).

I am REALLY annoyed that songs like "Dancefloor" by Apples in Stereo and "How We Operate" by Gomez weren't ported over onto the PS3. "Dancefloor" was a really cool track, and the video for it featured Elijah Wood. Likewise, Gomez... they're a pretty big UK band that's had quite a number of chart hits.

Instead we get flooded with Amberian Dawn, The Main Drag, etc.

Why can't they be bothered in continuing to release RBN 1.0 onto the PS3?

They could do 5 RBN 2.0 and 5 RBN 1.0 songs per week, and I think that would make us all happy if we eventually got EVERYTHING that XBOX 360 users have.

And, from what information i've pieced together from posts by HMXhenry, Sony reps and others, it isn't Sony that's imposing the 5 track limitation. It's Harmonix. They've stated before that they basically don't have the time or resources to convert any more than that, and that's why we get 5 a week.

It's still great that they were working on publishing and submitting 10 RBN 1.0 tracks per week during the PSN Downtime, and i'm amazed that SCEE came through and actually made them all available, but us PS3 users only getting 5 tracks per week just doesn't seem right!
