no Miley Cyrus?

Barron @ Nov 27th 2008 5:47PM

Miley Cyrus is a Disney Channel star, not Nickelodeon.
Duh.

Mazrael @ Nov 27th 2008 2:59PM

must they really?

there's so much real music they could get on there and they sink to putting this kiddie crap out there..

Myztic7x @ Nov 27th 2008 3:00PM

Though its alll sooo tempting... ill only be picking up the Tokio Hotel track.

Dave Williams: International Vagrant @ Nov 27th 2008 3:16PM

Don't you dare taint the beauty of "Tempted" by Squeeze. That's the only thing I'll buy. Finally some more 80s stuff!

DBoyFlex @ Nov 27th 2008 3:25PM

Wow, nick songs? Are they for real? I could see that as an april fools joke, but near the holidays? Shittiest stuff yet.

PSN:td_rules @ Nov 27th 2008 3:26PM

bodom on nickolodeon would be rather awesome and everyone knows it

zourskittles @ Nov 27th 2008 3:32PM

Oh no guys, songs we have the option of getting. They ruined the game by expanding their music collection to appeal to a wider audience. WHAT EVER WILL WE DO?

Mazrael @ Nov 27th 2008 4:34PM

Widening the audience is a good thing.. only if it's in the right direction.. kiddie rubbish isn't..
why some more At the Gates,or some Testament, Deicide, Amon Amarth, Fear Factory.. I have albums by 50 different bands, a few of which from the 80's, that a lot of people may not of heard, & a lot of new stuff from bands that have been going 10 years, which are fairly high profile to metal heads.. maybe even do a expansion solus for metallers, I'll buy that.. I listen to a wide range of metal styles which, from Folk Metal (Korpilaani & Finntroll) to industrial (Fear Factory, Strapping Young Lad) and Black, Death & Grind (Emperor, Behemoth & the Berzerker for example).. where do I get my guitar game kicks?
I do play guitar, but only for fun on my own.. but with GH/RB I could play & listen at the same time..

Helloimbob @ Nov 28th 2008 11:08AM

Wow... you listen to 50 different metal bands... what a wide musical taste...

Roxxorsmash @ Nov 28th 2008 2:36PM

@ Mazrael
Stop whining because they expanded the tracklist, it's not like they're forcing you to download it. Besides, the "right direction" in RB DLC is a matter of opinion.

steven @ Nov 28th 2008 6:30PM

Mazrael,

Most metal sucks (except for Ozzy Ozbourne and the like). And all of those bands you listed suck even more.

willie @ Nov 27th 2008 3:39PM

FINALLY!
CHILDREN OF BODOM!!!!!
oh thank you so much harmonix :DDDD

SupaYoYoMan @ Nov 27th 2008 4:59PM

lol

not a bad move by MTV....

StLouisRibs7734 @ Nov 27th 2008 5:32PM

Tempted is the 500th song.

0_o

Metamario Mexico @ Nov 27th 2008 5:47PM

Awesome!!! first song in spanish in ROCK BAND!!! AWESOMEEE, thnkx harmonix!!!, also, Tempted is freaking cool and the Tokio Hotel track is cool too... better than Monsoon at least... i'll also be checking the All American Rejects one.... :D

therpham @ Nov 27th 2008 5:56PM

I think this will be the first time I skip on a free DLC song. Come on, I even downloaded that American Mall track, but this? Do not want!

It's not like they ruined the game with this stuff or anything. There are hundreds of DLC tracks that I never plan on buying. I just pity the fools who had to sit around at Harmonix and come up with the notecharts for that crap.

Tegolin @ Nov 27th 2008 5:59PM

Wow.
Skipping the free track.
Maybe but the Squeeze track cause Cool For Cats was cool.

the helvetica scenario @ Nov 27th 2008 8:58PM

Nickelodeon songs? Why can't we get Killer Tofu by the Beets?

Rachaza @ Nov 27th 2008 10:55PM

YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

MewLover34 @ Nov 27th 2008 10:30PM

So...Rock Band gets these and Guitar Hero gets The Smashing Pumpkins. Remind me why Rock Band has the better DLC...

LK @ Nov 28th 2008 10:55AM

That-a-way to single out one week compared to entire catalogue of on-going DLC.
You only have to read a list to see that Rock Band blows out GH in terms of DLC.
BTW, Rock Band got Smashing Pumpkins DLC a long time ago, so even in direct comparison, you lose.
