LEGO® Rock Band® - Rumors and Facts

[CrazyIvan]

Woot to A-Punk! That was one of the songs on the GH5 setlist I wanted. The real question is (and I know this has been asked to death at this point)... will they be available to export or download for RB....

If you don't see it, nobody knows!

Added songs from Fact Sheet posted above.

looking like it's going to be an all original setlist

I noticed in the OP that it is not developed by HMX. I hope this doesn't mean there will be an export issue. If you can't export it, then it's just not Rock Band. If it can't be exported then hopefully we'll see these songs as DLC.

They should have fell in love with a girl by the white stripes, and have their lego themed video playing in the background. that would be neat, I suppose.

If you take a look at the fact sheet it's listed as being:
Published by : Warner Interactive AND MTV Games
Developed by: Traveller's Tales AND Harmonix

[Kariodude]

It's because Harmonix developed the engine. Past that, it's all Traveler's Tales.

Haha, I found a short clip with someone singing "I Want You Back." Shows off a bit of gameplay footage too!

What, even the audio and charts?

It's RB and MTV branded, I don't see why TT doing the devlopment precludes export. Then again shared DLC, even by a direct sequel by the exact same developer/publisher, didn't exist at all before RB and hardly exists anywhere else now so there's not much precedent.

It all sounds very RB2 for the basic gameplay still so I don't see a technical reason to not allow import and/or export, so I'd imagine it's just down to choices.
