Friday, September 25, 2009 @ 05:36:00 PM

I'm usually 100% for Guitar Hero, but omg, I might have to rent Rock Band from Gamefly again just to download all of those AiC songs. Classic old ones, and 2 amazing new ones. UGH, can't wait.

@6 - Odd, I'm listening to Sulfer right now. =P

We could do with some more Slipknot, we've only had Before I Forget on GH3.

But, as for the news, I'll be getting the BB songs straight away. :)

So psyched for Breaking Benjamin, have wanted to see them in one of these games for years now. Can't wait!

Alice in Chains > all. Here's hoping that the 2nd AiC pack is coming soon, and 'Down in a Hole' is included. I really would love if they brought back 'Them Bones' from GH2, because that song rocks too.

Comment #27 by CRAZYCJ20
Friday, September 25, 2009 @ 07:37:17 PM

Crapice in chains, Cry-me-a-river Benjamin, and Kula Shitter? Right down my ally when my brain isn't functioning!

Breaking Benjamin is my # 1 favorite band i even have there symbol tattooed on my arm wish they would have put some better songs like skin or break my fall all there old stuff from the first two cds was the best but there is so cold but still this is the pack I've been waiting for since i bought this game!!!!!!

Comment #29 by themailman
Friday, September 25, 2009 @ 07:45:55 PM

wow! Kula Shaker. And "Hey Dude" - prolly suprise a few of you who dont know them, quite a good riff in this one.

Knight On the town - ok, tune, but their version of "Hush" is quite good tho.

Comment #30 by Arcanon
Friday, September 25, 2009 @ 07:52:24 PM

I'll be getting the Breaking Benjamin and Alice In Chains pack for sure. Passing on Just Kait unless I can get it free, and previewing Kula Shaker before I buy. Not a bad week.

Comment #31 by JayHook
Friday, September 25, 2009 @ 08:56:40 PM

If "Cehck my Brain" had been "Nutshell" instead, the pack would have been my 5 favourite songs by my favourite band!

Anyways, i'm SO pumped for AIC.

Just hoping theres more to come!

Comment #32 by dakisbac
Friday, September 25, 2009 @ 08:58:10 PM

About time they got some Breaking Benjamin. I don't really like I Will Not Bow (and thus, am concerned about their new album) but So Cold and Diary of Jane are awesome

@6...how have you never heard of alice in chains or breaking benjamin?? and stop complaining about no slipknot, every week some goes "ugghh needs slipknot" stop bumming off them and give other downloads a chance...am sure if they can get nirvana copyrights they will get slipknot eventually, its just about being patient...theres been alot of other good dlc so dont just dismiss them because they dont show there faces and scream down a mic and play the drums with there heads!

Comment #46 by silentbob0
Saturday, September 26, 2009 @ 02:14:37 AM

The Alice In Chains pack will surely be one of my favourite packs so far, although I would have prefered more older songs by Layne over the 2 songs from there new album. I'm hoping Pack 02 is even better than this pack.

Comment #47 by Santaslave
Saturday, September 26, 2009 @ 02:41:17 AM

Replace No Excuses with We Die Young and I'll get it. Although the other AiC tracks are also awesome

Comment #48 by jldell
Saturday, September 26, 2009 @ 04:27:25 AM

Hell yeah, Kula Shaker. Brit Pop-tastic.

Comment #49 by prowlerdante
Saturday, September 26, 2009 @ 04:34:27 AM

Probably getting all of them, minus Just Kait, sounds like another Nickelodian Payola to me. When are we going to see the announced Pantera, or some Primus. Primus would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

Saturday, September 26, 2009 @ 05:46:18 AM

Yes!!! theres no slipknot.

Alice in Chains is decent, but seriously, where the fuck is all the metal. This game only has girls music. Pre-teen girl power bullshit music.

nothing for me here maybe alice in chains but probs not.
Also according to wikipedia KORN is coming to rock band next month or month after soyou can all stfu lol. also GH: slipknot = fail tbh

Comment #56 by Santaslave
Saturday, September 26, 2009 @ 09:22:10 AM

slipknot sucks anyway. Because Harmonix knows their metal pretty well, it's the reason they've put in Testament, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Megadeth and Metallica in their games instead of slipknot.

I wish their was a way to preview the songs. I could be missing out on some great tunes just because I have never heard the song. Maybe this could be a future update.

Wonder why they say Pack 01 when they never make Pack 02

Comment #69 by Arcanon
Monday, September 28, 2009 @ 10:03:57 AM

@68

In case they ever do make a Pack 02. And it has happened before with other bands, like Grateful Dead. Also, apparently we're getting an Alice In Chains Pack 02 sometime in the future.

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
