The more the merrier. I have no issues with it coming over; especially since I was one of the TAG authors working on it.
It's a fun song and I'd buy it.

I would love to see PS3 players have access to that song. It's too amazing to be held back.

Would it be possible for PS3 to get the missing Main Drag song and at least one more song by either MC Frontalot or Hyro da Hero, in order to unlock the two goals we are still missing?

No. They're all RBN 1.0. Only RBN 2.0 songs are being port as of... a while ago.

As of June 14th, I believe. That's the first week of RBN2.0 content that we got. No RBN1.0 songs have been released after that date (and most likely never will be).

Hey Harmonix and ThatAuthoringGroup,
I am really happy that you guys are bringing so ... death to the RBN. Thanks very much for all your efforts.

FYI, this is how I read this the first time. Got me rather worried till I reread it. I'd like to thank HMX and TAG for not really bringing death to RBN.

Death Metal you can bring all you want. I don't have to download it

It's ok to play Rock Band with Death. He does tend to hog the Keytar though.

However don't play chess with him.

Ever.

I want Diamond Eyes! Rishloo is one of the best RBN "finds," right up there with Free Spirit and almost up there with Children of Nova. Their songs are challenging without causing shmoes like me to sink into despair and they're only 99 freakin' cents. We need.

Is there any way you guys can help promote your particular offerings to the PSN and not just the Xbox? I keep up with the new releases every week and of course every week I am let down by what doesn't make it over to the PS3. I understand about the 30 day exclusivity that Xbox has on RBN releases, but why do so many songs never make it to PSN? It seems like lost revenue if all it needs to do is be submitted to PSN since the work is already done.

Hi Jason!

Responding for Harmonix (TAG will have to speak for themselves!) - thanks for your enthusiasm!

There's actually a lot more work involved in releasing an RBN song on the PS3 than many people realize. Once a song passes peer review on the Xbox, its release is basically automated. This is not the case for the PS3. Without going into excessive detail - although we don't rechart the song, we do need to convert it to a format that the PS3 can read, and we also need to submit the file to Sony and receive appropriate approvals, just as we do with any piece of Harmonix-authored DLC. This is a fairly complex process that involves multiple people both at Harmonix and at Sony.

Consequently, PS3 RBN releases are limited to five songs every week. We use a number of factors to determine which songs we move over, such as sales on Xbox, expressed interest by the PS3 community, and past experience with PS3 community reactions to similar songs/sets of songs.

Please tell me that those songs as well as many of your other offerings will make it over there for me to purchase? If there is something I can do to help them make the jump over, then please let me know.

The best thing you can do to help is exactly what you just did - let us know that you're interested!
