Nice!

This is worse than an MMO… there are at least two songs every week like clockwork, and I can never resist. Talking Heads!!

Me too! I look forward to failing at drums on this for months.

YES!!!

Seriously, this may be one of the top 5 songs I’ve wanted in this game for years now. It’s going to be sheer awesomeness on every instrument.

And the rest of the week’s pretty nice as well. Good stuff.

Back when I was still putting my GH2 scores up on Score Hero, I think Bat Country was on about 90% of the “Most Wanted” lists that people put together.

Lost my shape, trying to act casual. Yesssss, Talking Heads!

Also, I don’t know this Bat Country song, but I’ll take your word for it that it’s good.

It’s also got a kick-ass music video.

Talking Heads five pack on the way.

All I can say is:

It’s about…

…damn…

…time!

~mink~

edit Whoops! Looks like Rock8 beat me to it…

Talking Heads! I swear RB is gonna put me in the poor house.

Same as it ever was!

uess we were all wrong about “all GH5 thunder-stealing, all the time” predictions.

Maybe they pulled out all the stops last week? Or maybe it’ll be next week? But yeah, I was wrong. Still: Talking Heads, man!

I think RB Beatles is their thunder stealing release.

Lego Rock Band Exports! Queen 10 pack in October!

Megaton!

:)

Also: “Ruby ruby ruby!”

Full song export? Sold!

Not sure if it’s been confirmed elsewhere, but that songlist implies the Unplugged tracks will be available as DLC in September.

Worth it just to be able to inflict the Final Countdown on others. With any luck, it includes the full Baba O’Reilly level gameplay free intro. Or perhaps they’ll give it the Smokin’ synthesizer guitar deal…the possibilities for suffering are endless.

Awww hell yeah. It just went from a “maybe” to a “definite buy”.

Huh, Vampire Weekend is in Lego Rockband? Anyway, scrolling through that list was mostly good news, but it’s depressing to see no mention of more Muse on the horizon.

Finally, a Queen track pack!

So happy about the Lego Rock Band import.

Also - enough with the Queen teasers, give me the full damn list!

I would buy any game (even Rock Revolution 2) that had Map of the Problematique.
