Methodis posted:They better give out some kind of refund. Otherwise, I hope someone starts a class action lawsuit up. Let me fast-forward you to the conclusion of that hypothetical lawsuit. You can go to a website or send in a post card and if they validate your claim, you get a code for 70 MSP. The lawyers responsible each get 15 million dollars.

Yes, because purchasing something that was advertised with the promise of being able to play it in Rock Band 3 and all future titles is not a lie, and totally not worthy of a class action lawsuit.

Oh boy, some more thread making GBS threads. Where is this legal document promising you access to these few DLC files in RB3? What games would it be OK for these not to transfer to without suing? RB4? RB10?

Any Canucks have any luck locating keyboard bundles yet? I checked walmart on the way home last night and as usual they were kinda clueless about it. The malls containing EB Games are open later tonight so I'll give them a call before going out to check em.

I think you forgot the "ever" part before that last word. Here's what it say's when you buy a song: quote:PLEASE NOTE: Rock Band game disc is required to play song game tracks. Many Rock Band song game tracks are available as both a multipack and as a single game track. These song game tracks are exactly the same (unless expressly noted as a special version or remix). Be aware that it is possible to download the same song game track twice so please carefully consider your purchases. For music credits, visit http://www.rockband.com. So, unless it had Rock Band or Rock Band 2 game disc stated on either songs before the release of Rock Band 3, then they could be in some trouble. Even worse, is those songs are in that included DLC list.

Pops Mgee posted:My question got lost in this thread moving so fast so I'll just ask again. Could someone point me in the direction of some keyboard stands that will fit with the RB3 keyboard. I saw the madcatz one was $40 which is kinda pricey. I've seen some other stands for $20-25 but I don't want to buy them if there's a chance they won't fit the keyboard.

I called bestbuy and he said they should have them in by Thursday too. The bestbuy guy was by far the most knowledgeable salesperson I've asked about it so far. Everywhere else is either "huh?" "what?" *points at rock band beatles bundle* "is that it?"

We should sue Sony over the PlayStation 2 not launching missiles or whatever the hell some of those silly early claims were saying. Know what we shouldn't sue over? The "Swap To <Gamertag>" feature. Good lord is that ever nice to have.

Boll Weevil if you're making notes about bugs I think I have (a really minor) one: The Jackson Custom Kelly w/ reversible neck guitar doesn't seem to add art correctly. Art appears on the 2 small pickups under the strings and cannot be moved onto the body. Every other guitar has the art appear on the body and in RB2 this particular Jackson guitar had it appear on the body also.

If anyone is interested I have my Lego Rock Band key still from redeeming it last night. I got Lego Rock Band back at launch so I have no need for it. If you want it to rent the game and import for free just email me at ragnaroksword at gmail dot com. First reply gets it. Edit: This is for PS3 obviously.

The difference is we know which tracks won't play in Lego Rock Band and that DLC doesn't work in ACDC. No one knew about any of these missing DLC until RB3 launched, when they were removed from marketplace, rockband.com and the game, after when you purchased it you were told that they were compatible with future games. And what about people who are just getting into Rock Band 3, took a look at the music stores prior hand (which you can, because there's individual "apps" for exploring them) and purchased these songs expecting them not to all of a sudden dissapear? If you ever have your hardware die out, won't you be mad that you can never get those songs again? Especially since you paid for them? All they have to do is give refunds and that will be fine, but if they play this Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil thing, then that's unacceptable.

I'm pretty much done with Expert guitar career now, golded all the Challenges and got Hall Of Fame entry. I have no big problems with the game apart from the niggles people have already mentioned - probably the one that irritates me most is the lack of continuity in the actual stage show. My singer will be holding the mic stand above his head in one shot, then it'll cut to a different angle and it'll be back on the floor. There are some issues with animations as well - the appropriate way to sing Imagine is not "while dancing from side to side with the mic stand tipped over", and the keyboard animation is shockingly poor and awkward. The game is excellent, and the setlist is great, but every time I see a really obvious flaw like that it's like a little red light in the corner of my eye, distracting me. I could even understand it for the DLC songs, but you'd think some continuity editing could have been done with the ones they specifically chose for the disc. I hope someone starts a class action lawsuit about it.

My Mass Effect DLC doesn't work with Mass Effect 2, but it doesn't say that it won't in the description! Suck on this class-action lawsuit, Bioware!!!

You know, there's a chance the blocking of the DLC versions of those two songs was accidental, much like the fact that 8 or 10 other DLC songs are just completely missing.

But that's not part of any purchase agreement. The website could say "All your DLC will make you sprout a vagina filled with toads on your chest" and they wouldn't need to make that happen. (and also technically ALL the songs DO have pro drums, whether or not you can use them in a game with Pro Drums as a mode.) edit: I wonder if there's some escape clause from a lawsuit if you make a statement that is only ~99.75% true.
