This kinda makes me wish I still played RB in general, but no place to do so.

Any word on double bass for drums yet?

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Red"]I guarantee there will be double bass. Also, oh boy, Beast and the Harlot bridge with double bass.

[video=youtube;1f00kr0B9m8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1f00kr0B9m8[/video]

Referring specifically to the stuff from 3:52 or so to 4:19. [/COLOR][/SIZE]

I'm not really feeling the setlist. I feel RB2's setlist to be better, but this setlist is made for all their new additions. I'm not really interested in any of their new additions like Pro Mode and Keyboards(I also don't have the money to get all of it anyway). :/ I'll still get it though down the road.

Eh..I really like this setlist, and I probably won't get any more than the keyboard. It can only get better if you export and buy dlc too.

Yeah Blaine, that's why I asked. I know that Beast and the Harlot has plenty of double bass. (It's one of my favorite songs )

Deific: Something to keep in mind is that at this point for the RB series, they're already put out a ton of songs via DLC. At this point, song selection for Harmonix is getting harder and harder with every major release.

Oh wow. Rock Band is now DIAMONDS. Guitar Hero is going to die out because of such an epic addition to the game.

Man I'm so psyched for this game. YAY HARMONIES AND KEYBOARDS!!! My nine years of piano lessons will not have been in vain!

Also several of the songs in the setlist make me ! OH SO HAPPY! (OMG ROXETTE!)

I wonder if they've made any improvements to the song selection screen. Seeing as the hubby and I already have 300+ downloaded songs... I know you can sort them by band/title/etc. but it still takes a while to scroll through to the ones you want. Please please please!

Yeah, that's the only selling point for me in this game(Playing DLC in an updated game). I'm still not entirely sure if I'll get it. Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock is a day-one purchase for me, but that's another story. I love both series, but right now GH has appealed to me more this year.

YEAH! I mean, I'm so glad I can play real piano, so now I can play VIDEO GAME PIANO! Man, if this game didn't come out I would hate having this skill.

 Spoiler

Just kidding :3

But yeah. Pretty pumped. Don't think I'll get it though. I don't have the funds. sadfaic

I've heard they made it a lot easier. Forgot how though. But they know they have to make it easier for people who have over 1,000 songs.

I know I'll be getting the game, but I don't know if I'll be able to get any of the new stuff. Being in a small College dorm doesn't support large quantities of plastic instruments. :x

Maybe they'll take a hint from something like DDR where you can scroll through letter for song titles and expand whichever you want, then pick your song? Or I'd hope they did something like that.

Nonsense. I have eight plastic guitars and like four microphones in my room. You could handle it.
