U2 for Rock Band

[U2Phreak1969]

How does this work? You get people to come up and sing and play instruments and you fill in whatever instrument they don't play?

Yep. Just like you said. But lately, I haven't got to play as much. More people are getting savvy to how to play, therefore, I am seeing a lot more crowd participation.. . . Which I love!
Honestly, just by way of Rockband having four separate things to do, you literally can have four times the crowd participation that you would have for karaoke. Plus, people that might have never got up in front of everyone to sing, might still play some plastic guitar.

Bring U2 to Rockband!! Just saw the U2 3D show. awesome!

[Unrealegends]

The joshua tree album, im sure is THE best album from U2

And all the songs fit for Rock Band perfectly



U2
U2

I actually think War would be a better fit for RB, but I'd buy either.

[bricio]

Time to bring this thread back from the dead. Let's see some U2 in RB!!!!!

[Will-san]

Yeah War would be great.

I think They should start with a U2 3 Pack

Sunday Bloody Sundy
Bullet the Blue Sky
The Fly

and then eventually release all three albums

[AllIWantIsU2]

The latest rumors are that the new U2 album will be out in October (and a new tour in March 2009). How about it Harmonix, a six pack featuring one song from the new album and 5 "classic" U2 tracks? My top five is constantly changing, but today I'd go for:

New Year's Day
Pride (In The Name of Love)
Sunday Bloody Sunday
The Fly
Desire

Anyone else see gloomy omens from the newly announced Guitar Hero: Metallica? I was afraid of this. Aerosmith may be the first of the truly A list rock bands out there to get their own game title. U2 is another one of those bands I would imagine would hold out for their own game.

I haven't decided yet whether that would be good or bad. A U2 game would be a must buy for me, but I hope it's made by HMX and not Neversoft. In any case, I'm not sure I like the idea of having to buy a new game for every A-list rock band whose music I enjoy, but thanks to Aerosmith and Activision, that will probably become the reality.

Anyone else thinking of boycotting GH: Aerosmith for that very reason?

With or Without you

I would love to sing this stuff.

[AllIWantIsU2]

Anyone else thinking of boycotting GH: Aerosmith for that very reason?

Well, I'm inadvertantly "boycotting" GH: Aerosmith because I just don't care enough about their music to buy an entire game of their stuff. I wouldn't be buying it if it was a Rock Band game either.

I think everyone here has expressed their preference for U2 in Rock Band. But if GH gets U2 and Rock Band doesn't, well, sorry Harmonix, I for one will be buying and playing GH.
