Rock Band revenues increase in Q2 2010

[Whizzer191]

It will say "Get more Music" in Rock Band 3

Are people so stupid that they don't understand the fundamentals of a Store at a glance?

They will complain that they can't just 'get' more songs, but have to pay for them!

Actually, both are misquotations of Mark Twains "The report of my death was an exaggeration".

I just picked the one that's closest to the original, but sounds a bit more glib.

My bad, I didn't know the original. Thanks for showing me the light!

I know, Music Store should be a clear example of getting more songs, but some people just don't notice it, GET MORE SONGS, I think will grab more attention from people so they will actually look in the store.

You have to remember folks. We are the minority here on the forums. The casual gamer, like someone posted before, sometimes doesn't even know how to connect their console to the internet, therefore negating the music store all together.

I really don't watch much TV, so advertising in that way wouldn't reach me. They need to advertise on radio stations the most. Like if said song is available on RB, it should be advertised as such. This would be the best way to boost knowledge of DLC. One of the local radio stations here does that sometimes, hell even the Hot Topic at our mall had a board stating the most recent DLC released for RB.

Man, I wish MTV Games/HMX/Viacom would put you on staff in their advertising department. Seriously.

Advertise where it'll *reach* people who are music fans and who'd be interested in this. RB ads should be all over not only satellite radio, but also iTunes, last.fm, in record stores (especially chains), rock concerts big and small, bars and discos and live clubs....

How do people not know about DLC? There's loading screens advertising it, plugs on what seems to be every message of the day lately, a "Music Store" option right there on the main menu, it's not like it's a Marketplace selection hidden in the options menu like most games.

I see a lot of RB advertisement. On VH1 Classic you see commercials for RB DLC all the time. I just saw one a few minutes ago when I was watching it.

It's very easy to not see it when your console is not online. Isn't it only about 1/3 of 360s are even on Live (Gold or Silver).

It IS on last.fm.

Lately, half the ads I see on that site are showing The Beatles for $30.

[Carpe_Diem]

It was because of RBN and the export of RB1 and RB2 confirmed for RB3....

They need to invest in europe... seriously, the crappy GH-market has a monopoly over here
