    oooooooo I'm getting real excited, this is getting real close to release!

    Me too! Part of it is that I actually have folks to play it with this time.

    So I'm kinda confused about RB4 DLC

    I don't have anything tied to my Sony account, but if I went out and bought RB1/2/3 would their songs transfer over? I vaguely remember some sort of import thing.

    Also will DLC for previous games be purchasable in RB4 or should I go grab a cheap copy of 3and get buying

    I'm not even like, a fan of the band or anything, but the song I'm most hype for is Tongue Tied by Grouplove. That'd be fun as hell to sing.

    AFAIK there's no way to get the songs from RB1&2 if you don't already have them at this point. Licenses expired, etc. Also I'm pretty sure the DLC from previous games will be available in RB4. They've been touting 1500 songs on day one so that's the conclusion I'm drawing.

    Welp just spent like 40 bucks (mostly in PSN credit I had) on DLC songs

    I absolutely love Rock Band but my biggest issue with the past games, which is totally due to me being lazy and not buying DLC, is that in going for as wide a net as possible with their songs (which is totally the smart move don't get me wrong) there were only about 10-15 songs per game that I really really liked and they got overplayed real quick

    With the songs from this game and the songs from RB1 and the 35 DLC songs I'm looking at like 60-70 songs I dig a whole bunch

    Gimme this game now please

    I don't know how to feel about BABYMETAL in Rock Band.

    My Own Eyes is the best Foo Fighters song they could add to Rock Band at this point though.

    I don't think any of the RBN stuff is coming over to 4, though

    Which is a damn shame because the Hold Steady song that was released through there was one of my staples

    I never played EBA but I played the hell out of Osu, Tatakae, Ouendan!

    I also imported it because I am the biggest goddamn nerd and despite not knowing a lick of Japanese, *had* to have the game in high school.

    I refuse to play it on my 3DS though because I just know I'll ruin the screen playing Ready Steady Go...

    Someone call Scott & Scott, they didn't actually announce all the songs on disk in Rock Band 4!

    https://youtu.be/NoTw5mJ75G0

    U2 is in Rock Band for the first time

    "I Will Follow" and "Cedarwood Road" are both in the game, and more songs will be coming later as DLC

    So there will be at least U2 and Van Halen packs coming

    While I prefer the Rock Band full band experience - the no PC/Wii U version has me settling for Guitar Hero. The positive side of that is I really like the setlist for GH this time...and the lack of "That Smell" is a nice bonus as well.

    I can't decide if I'm gonna get Guitar Hero

    It would solely be for the gameplay, because the new guitar sounds really interesting

    Like for Rock Band I'm almost exclusively excited about the drums and vocals, I have kinda burned out on guitar/bass after 5 straight years of inhaling guitar games

    GH Live sounds like the twist on the gameplay I could really get into

    Buuuuuuuut everything else about that game kinda makes my skin crawl

    The presentation especially

    I think Rock Band's custom solo stuff sounds really fun and is probably the main hook for that part of the game for me. It is kind of a bummer that the bass hasn't really gotten anything new, though.
