Harmonix will be making good on their promise to deliver 20 free downloadable tracks for Rock Band 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, PS2) next month.

Those who buy the game will be able to download 20 new tracks for free by using a download code found on the back of the game's instruction manual to access the free content.

# What a shame. — Navani 2008-10-21 14:48

I may not be up to date with the current music, as I like older stuff.. but I honestly never heard of any of these songs in my life. Maybe I know the tune or something, but I definitely can't identify them by their names.

# same — teh not so 1337 g@m3r 2008-10-21 15:45

never heard of any of them.

# wat — Neko Kyu 2008-10-21 16:42

I wont download these even if they're free D: waste of HDD space

# Yay! — Carter 2008-10-22 00:57

Kutless and Underoath! Sweet! Both of those are awesome!

# ugg — hush404 2008-10-22 02:02

Ultimately random crap they just threw together?

# . — Mister Common Sense 2008-10-22 03:06

Glad I didn't waste any money on rock band 2. The track list BLOWS and the game is identical to the first one.

# This sucks — yworob 2008-10-22 03:22

I didn't expect anything good but this is an even worse track list than I thought we we would get. Over 99 percent of people have never heard of any of these bands There were enough bad songs on the disk already.

# Yeah... I'm kinda disappointed — Nevers 2008-10-22 04:49

with RB2... the song selection is mediocre at best. These tracks are meant to maybe broaden our musical horizons but I'm not interested in being introduced to more "xtra-trak" bands. Never heard of these bands... and because of that, there is absolutely no incentive that this adds.

I gott too much to play anyhow... so between RB2 and GuitarH WT - I'm just gonna wait and see who has the better Track-list + DLC track list a few months from now. Maybe I'll buy them both at used pricing.

# WTF!?!?!?!?! — ISOHaven 2008-10-22 04:50

Wrong again!!!! Seriously, do you even have to TRY to be wrong or does it just come natural to you?

The game is not identical. There have been many improvments. The game itself as well as the hardware.

Whether or not you LIKE the improvments is a whole other issue. However you are dead wrong about it being identical.

# WTF!?!?!?!?! — ISOHaven 2008-10-22 04:52

I agree. This bonus lineup blows big time!

Plus I've been rather disappointed with a lot of the songs in RB2. Gotta just play through them to get to the good stuff.

# in addition — Nevers 2008-10-22 05:21

I was very very disappointed with the way Guitar H 3 was done ... and I was gonna swear off the GH series after that

... but now...

I'm up in the air again >.

# Yeah... totally — Nevers 2008-10-22 07:55

I play RB and GH to play songs that make you feel like a ROCKSTAR ... not to feel like a Garage Band.

# i've heard all those bands — truk 2008-10-22 11:08

i'm just cool like that but they all suck, imo. i also thought the the majority of music on the 1st sucked too, however, i still have so much fun playing that game. i'll probably get the 2nd one too...used.

# sucks — milo128 2008-11-03 04:09

half the songs on rock band are horrible and like 5 are good songs it's more of an expansion pack than a new, game rock band 1.5 and now there's rock band 1.55 ac dc with 20 songs for $60 but don't worry you can buy better songs online that are better than the actual setlist you bought!!!!!!!
