Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Buckethead. And it's coming out tomorrow. Awesome.

Dragonforce pack. Comes out August 21.


So... yeah.
Maybe this is a sign that Neversoft is actually listening to their fans?

Satriani, Buckethead, and Vai.
All three songs in that pack will be more fun than any of Rock Band's DLC, as long as you're good enough to pass the songs.

The Dragonforce thing was more of a "this pack will actually require skill, unlike all previous DLC packs that were not free."

I WANT DLC NOW

Buckethead, I can dig. As for the rest of it, I'll echo the joke in this thread that had already been run into the ground by the time American Hero reiterated it. And I guess DYRE did not get the joke the first time.

I'll admit, the Dropkick Murphys thing for free was okay, and the Coldplay 3 pack was good (WHY WAS THIS NOT ON ROCK BAND?!?!?!), but to say that anything you mentioned is better than any of the Rock Band DLC, you must be a bit touched in the head.

Unless all you listen to is metal. Then to you, it probably IS better than the Rock Band DLC. But then again, if all you listen to is metal, you probably ARE a bit touched in the head.

I HATE HATE HATE that GH forces you to buy the songs as three packs. That's how I got screwed getting Peace of Mind by Boston. I was forced to pay for two other songs I could care less about (one of which is going to be on Rock Band 2...the Journey one), and then less than a month later, that Boston pack comes out for Rock Band. Neversoft/Activision=money-grubbers. As their DLC comes out so infrequently, I guess they feel that a lot of people will pretty much buy almost any 3 pack they put out, just to have new songs to play, instead of giving people a choice of only purchasing one out of three songs if they do not like the other two, and in most cases, giving a slight discount for buying the songs as a three pack. And I'm not even touching on the breadth of music offered.

Sorry, guys. As much as I hate to say it, I'm turning into a Sony and Rock Band fanboy more and more with each passing day.

:fanboy

well buckethead is ok, but satriani and vai are, uh, boring. I seriously nearly fell asleep listening to satriani in concert.

Eh, okay. Opinions and all.
I just thought that it was good that GH3 was finally getting challenging track packs.

Re: NO WAY! Guitar Hero 3 is getting good downloadable content!

I'm still bitter that the biggest power metal band in the world, Blind Guardian, still isn't getting any GH or RB love. Dragonforce is just masterbatory.

Flannigan's Ball was free and is one of my faves. I'm not claiming it's the most intricate song to play, but I just like playing the song.

Wait, where's the good content?

Re: NO WAY! Guitar Hero 3 is getting good downloadable content!

There's no way to tell if the songs are any good before seeing the note path. I was excited for the Muse pack as I'm a big fan of their music, and Knights of Cydonia is one of my favorite songs from the original setlist to play, but all three DC songs suck in the game because their note paths suck.

So I can finally bust some sweet riffs with Herman Li?!
