Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s Final Setlist

[Magnet]

I see that the order has changed quite a bit from the initial build of the game. There's now 30 songs total (instead of 30 with one bonus song) because Bow Wow Wow had a hissy fit or something. No one will tell us why. Looks like the originally unlockable "Because, It's Midnite" has now moved into the second tier.

Seems like it will be a ton of fun, Harmonix. I love that there's five masters now (even though it seems a little uneven having four of them in the first half of the game, but I guess that's the way the difficulties laid out). Now we just have to wait until July 24 to play it.

I wonder if any of you take a break from Rock Band once in a while to play this one.

Police Truck is the only one I'm really excited about, and there's only 30 songs?

Meh, I won't be buying this.

IT HAS LIMOZEEN! SWEET!!

gh2 had Trogdor, now Because It's Midnight is in 80's. I wonder if any Homestarrunner songs will make it into RB or GH3.....

[Dirge07]

People nowadays want more songs of this decade, and more than 30 songs in a game for that matter. Plus the $50 price tag doesn't make anything better. This probably won't sell much...

I was so excited when I learned that Oingo Boingo was in the game. Most rock related things rarely include the awesome New Wave music.

I still think RB should put Rock Lobster in the game.

[sa_nick]

lol, ive got the peter griffin version of rock lobster on my custom GH disc... it's awesome. Also $50 bucks isn't too bad, America has it easy when it comes to gaming prices.

[oberlin]

I'm pissed that it's not gonna be for 360.

[franknfurter1000]

We were at the beach....

[benjamin]

The original version of Rock Lobster is many times greater then the Family Guy version.

wait, they are going to Charge you to play 80's "rock"!? Wow, they are more evil then I thought. Sorry, but seriouly the only good rock out the 80's was yes, the talking heads and The Varukers.
