The AG Rock Band 3 DLC Jamboree - 28th February, 2011

Feature from Nat - Monday, 28 February 2011 @ 5:39pm

This weekly article will serve as a guide for what DLC is appearing on the various digital Rock Band stores this week in history. With a veritable bevy of usually quite decent content appearing every week, hopefully this article can serve as somewhat of a guide for what to look out for and what to avoid like the clappers.

Howdy, ladies and gents - anybody get a chance to catch Soundwave this weekend? I made it to the Sydney one, and by golly has it put me in the mood for more Rock Band 3 DLC - I need to get some Stone Sour and Rob Zombie faster than you can say "Giant Mosh of Death". Even if you missed getting a molten-hot shot of Metal straight to the face, I hope your weekend was jolly too.

Rock Band 3:

This week we see the arrival of four Nine Inch Nails tracks off their debut album, Pretty Hate Machine.

“Pretty Hate Pack 01” - 560 MSP
• Terrible Lie
• Head Like a Hole (Pro)
• Sanctified
• The Only Time

I dunno, guys - I've never been a big Nine Inch Nails fan, myself. I love Hurt and The Hand That Feeds is fun to play, but other than that... I'm a bit meh, for the first time in weeks. Oh well, every week can't be a winner in my books I suppose. What am I getting wrong if I can't get into NIN? Help me, please!

Also coming this week hot on the heels of the news that the Rock Band 3 Fender Squier Stratocaster Guitar Controller is due to be released next week, Harmonix have added Pro Mode upgrades to the following existing songs:

• Blink 182 - "Dammit"
• Boston - "More Than A Feeling"
• Creedence Clearwater Revival - "Bad Moon Rising"
• Creedence Clearwater Revival - "Fortunate Son"
• Eve 6 - "Inside Out"
• The James Gang - "Funk #49"
• The Knack - "My Sharona (Cover Version)"
• Lynyrd Skynyrd - "Simple Man"
• Metallica - "...And Justice for All"
• The Offspring - "Self Esteem"
• Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble - "Pride and Joy"

As soon as I've ponied up the cash, I'll be ordering one of these bad boys, pronto! I cannot wait to start learning Pro mode and go back to being horribly crap at Rock Band again.

Anything strike your fancy this week? Did you get a chance to see Soundwave? Pro-ordering the Pro guitar? What did o have for breakfast? Answer in the forums!
