"In a post on the Rock Band Forums, Harmonix Developer hmxsean reaveals that there will be Rock Band DLC next week over the holiday. No announcement what the tracks will be yet, but we do know one thing: PS3 owners will have to wait."
@feelmyring, I doubt that even if they are able to deliver more units to the stores that they will enjoy higher sales because of: 1. The after Christmas drop in videogame sales; 2. People waiting to be able to buy the game and instruments separately; and 3. People realizing that they do not need their own Rock Band bundle when they can go over to their friend's house and use their friend's copy of the game. Until we see the launch of the ability to buy each instrument separately instead of having to pony up for the huge bundle, I believe that we will not see significantly improved sales of this title.
Why is this January future so high?The November future sold 31dkp how is this going to sell 24dkp?ok so its getting about 100,000 an week in December . January should be about 66% lower so about 3dkp a week. Unless January is a 7week period its never going to reach 24dkp.
Electronic Arts, the world's biggest video game distributor, is taking heat from customers and retailers alike for its bungled release of the year's most anticipated title, Rock Band.
Toms Hardware Guide does a breakdown of each game in several different categories including gameplay, graphics, and song selection, to tell you who comes out on top.
@sagexsdx, I thought the interesting part of this was the Guitar Hero 3 lifetime sales. The PS2 version looks like it could be too low, I'd say around 245DKP is good.
The Rock Band community page has been updated as promised and now includes a copious amount of so-called Web 2.0 features - friends list, a personal blog, the ability to link your Xbox Live gamertag or PlayStation Network account to share your Rock and Roll lifestyle with the world around you. The forums, as was stated in the email sent out, seem to remain intact. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we can take our in-game character and make images out of them.
As it turned out, Rock Band performed surprisingly well in its first few weeks on the market, according to the NPD Group, selling 296,000 copies on Xbox 360 and 68,500 copies on PS3, making for 364,500 copies combined.
