    So looking at other posts on this page, stuff that lost their license and subsequently got relicensed will just show up for me no problem, right? Is there a handy compendium of stuff that lost their license and hasn't been relicensed?
    http://rbdb.online has a flag for availability, if you are interested in stuff that used to be in the store and isn't anymore. But if you have bought the track, it generally is available for download regardless of whether Harmonix has a current license to sell it or not.

    Thank God I can still force my wife to sing Poker Face like Eric Cartman.

    And I'm guessing I don't even have to ask if the Beatles is still walled off?

    Perhaps you should ask anyway. Just in case.

    HAI GUYS BEATLES STUFF IS TOTALLY IN ROCK BAND 4 BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE EASY AND CHEAP TO DO, RITE?!?!?

    I mean, the Beatles just got their own Sirius XM channel, so the fact that we still can't export Beatles song into Rock Band is quite frankly, a slap in the face.

    Okay, MMS is in the green. With a little work we can stay there. I might have a bit of time tomorrow before board game night kicks off.

    Rock Band 4 and guitar get, woo. Now time to mess around with my 360 stuff and get things to transfer.

    Edit: wait, Rock Band 3 has an update available after all this time? Don't tell me it's to change the publisher yet again?

    Edit edit: oh my god, they bothered to changed the publisher on the intro screen again. That's hilarious.

    Holy crap, the transfer process is relatively painless. I was expecting to have to select every single song individually for redownload, but nope, the game automatically started snorking everything up, even from Lego.

    I know this is old hat to you guys, but this really is an amazing feat. Mucho kudos to Harmonix!

    If anyone wants to add me on Xbox I'm Wordherder.

    I wish there was an optional patch you could download to uncensor the songs, it really takes me out of the moment when I'm playing old Chili Peppers and every other word is bleeped.

    The next best thing is having a singer on the mic who very enthusiastically puts the swear words back in (not that a friend of mine does that or anything ...).

    They actually said never to this recently : V

    But due to the reaction of censoring of that RHCP track it pretty much ended the idea of any more songs coming to the game but heavily blanked.

    It was always a touchy subject. Picking a song that heavily laden with expletives was asking for trouble.

    Indeed, and thanks to buying shit needed for Rivals, I hit 1000 DLC songs this week.

    Heh that Pierce The Veil song is ingrained in my mind thanks to that Rock Gaming thing on PS4's Spotify app.

    Sounds fun at least.

    So does XP really do anything but brag to people how much you've played?

    It gets you achievements a few times up to level 50.

    Other than that, nope.

    i mean, there is only a 3,800,000 exp gap between 50 and 100. I think they're confident that new level cap should satisfy the number-keeps-going-up people for a while.

    So I discovered that my fretboard on my RB4 launch guitar will just cut in and out in regards to working. What are my options for resolving this?

    Freewill and Pull Me Under?
    Okay Harmonix, I will give you money.

    I'm a little hesitant on Pull Me Under with the way they charted the vocals on Metropolis.

    I've done actual live performances of Dream Theater and Queensryche songs when I was in a band 8-9 years ago and can sing pretty much everything off Images and Words in the original octave, but the vocal tracking and/or charting of the song in RB4 hates me for some reason.

    No matter where you go...there you are.

    Any first impressions of Missions (which were added this week)? And is it true that the stutter issue has been solved or at least vastly improved?

    Missions are basically an excuse to play songs you might not usually play and in that they succeed pretty well

    They're also just things that you can apparently slop in all over the place because I've finished a silly amount of them just playing the game

    I've played maybe 6 hours and no stutters but frankly the stutter issue was fantastically sporadic for me so I'm not sure that means anything
