Rock Band Song Pack 2 detailed News

PlayStation 2 Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 Wii
News by Robert Purchese

7 November, 2008

Harmonix has detailed the second batch of downloadable Rock Band songs to be stuffed onto a disc and sold in shops.

The 20-strong collection will arrive on 17th November in the US, according to 1UP, and will also be offered on Xbox 360 and PS3 (the first collection was only available on Wii and PS2).

We're waiting to hear back from distributor EA about a European date and price. But you may remember the Rock Band Song Pack 1 cost GBP 25 on Wii, and GBP 20 on PS2.

By using our brain, we predict a price of around GBP 30 for the Xbox 360 and PS3 discs. This, we reasoned, was the cost of one song from Live Marketplace - 160 MSP (GBP 1.36) - multiplied by 20, which works out at GBP 27.20.

The full list is as follows:

  1. "Afterlife" - Avenged Sevenfold
  2. "Call Me" - Blondie
  3. "El Scorcho" - Weezer
  4. "Girl U Want" - Devo
  5. "Girls Who Play Guitars" - Maximo Park
  6. "Indestructible" - Disturbed
  7. "It Hurts" - Angels & Airwaves
  8. "Just What I Needed" - The Cars
  9. "Message in a Bottle" - The Police
  10. "Monkey Gone to Heaven" - Pixies
  11. "Rio" - Duran Duran
  12. "Saints of Los Angeles" - Motley Crue
  13. "Simple Man" - Lynyrd Skynyrd
  14. "Snow (Hey Oh)" - Red Hot Chili Peppers
  15. "The Perfect Drug" - Nine Inch Nails
  16. "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" - Fall Out Boy
  17. "Time Is Running Out" - Papa Roach
  18. "Why Do You Love Me" - Garbage
  19. "You've Got Another Thing Comin'" - Judas Priest
  20. "Zero" - Smashing Pumpkins

I still prefer GH: WT track list, though that Message in a Bottle was a fav from GHII. Nice selection though, some good ones there.

This is just a downloady song pack for those people without an internet connection. Frighteningly, I've already downloaded most of these, but:

"Why Do You Love Me" - Garbage
"You've Got Another Thing Comin'" - Judas Priest
"Zero" - Smashing Pumpkins

I don't 100% remember these on the song store. They could be there, but I dunno. Anyone near a 360 (or that other thing, the black one with all the rubbish ports) want to check it out?

I do indeed prefer more on the GH:WT track list than I do on the whole available catalogue of RB songs. Though this is moot since only one of them hass the greatest song ever made: Jesses Girl by Rick Springfield. Auto win.

That's pretty pointless because Today is already on Rock Band 2.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET RID OF THE FUCKING AD BANNERS!

Also, that tracklist is shit. Not least because, as that other person points out, some of them are already available on rock band 1. Lame.

You are an idiot. This is a track pack, these songs arent on Rock band 1, they were available as DLC for Rock band 1. However a the time of Rock Band 1's wii release in the US, DLC wasnt availalbe to wii - although it will be for Rock Band 2. So instead Harmonix are releasing these track packs which feature DLC songs for Wii users, or users without live or PSN. So its a pack of DLC songs for those who cant get dlc.

Its being reported on the Rock Band forums that the DLC code on the back of the manual of the just released PS3 Rock Band 2 is for this "Track Pack 2" instead of the 20 songs by bands I never heard of in NTSC US 360, PS3 release.
