“Rock Band® Track Pack™ Classic Rock” Available Now Nationwide

by Nina Pena on May 20th, 2009

If its not obvious I love Rockband so check it out fellow rockers, MTV and Harmonix just released the Rockband Track pack Classic Rock nationwide! The new game is only 29.99 and has 20 songs from artists such as The Who, Rush, Boston, Police, Steve Miller Band, George Thorogood and more!

I am always excited about new songs, how many times do you do a mystery set list and then there it is…your heart drops. The same song you have been playing since you started the game and in your mind you think “Oh no, not again…I can’t do it…I can’t play this song…crap I can’t abort the game then I will loose fans!” Then you feel guilt, I use to love this band and if I hear this song again I may jump out my window. Unhappily you play that song while attempting to figure out how remove the song forever…well maybe I am a bit over dramatic…

So bring on more songs for the rockers who need to be constantly stimulated Rockband!

by Nina Pena on May 19th, 2009

So like most rockbanders eventually you need to leave your home. I mean you can not just walk out your house with the full drum set and guitar…though it would be amusing to witness one would have to think your one french fry short of a happy meal walking around with a fake guitar. Today I was thrilled and I mean jumping up and down excited about the new Rockband Unplugged to be released on June 9,2009 for PSP! Yes! A new challenge!
