#931 Re: Guns N' Roses » Shackler's Revenge: REALLY confirmed » 935 weeks ago
Big deal. Really. I have 9 CD tracks already. Is it a new song? Yes. Will we hear it before game comes out? Yes. We have been reduced to going ape shit over a song we have never heard of on a game most of us don't play. I find it hilarious how much Jarmo hated Slash being on Guitar hero, yet they welcome this with open arms. I find it hilarious for 11 years, or 9 if you count OH MY GOD, that this is the breaking news we get. We, DR. Pepper too, oh and the Harley ad that NEVER happened. I just feel really dumbed down. I don't own one of these "game systems" and people will buy the game just to hear the song.
So to sum up, I am happy about the CD song on a video game.....
My priority is the album, everything else is bullshit to me frankly.
I would be happier if this was on a movie sound track.
GNR should release album before Rock Band comes out. If the song kicks ass, that many more people will want to play it on rock band. If the song sux on Rock Band, fewer people will buy the album. The song will be going against classics on the video game and it won't be the best song on the game or the best GNR song period.
I don't have a point to this ramble.
I think you have a good point, you don't want all the fuss just the music. A large portion of GNR listeners will also share your view.
This will be part of an all round promotional strategy in my opinion
I'm just not quite sure why they are still 'hoping' though.

I love the way its says '2000's' like the album was released only yesterday
#933 Re: Guns N' Roses » POLL: BH Returning? » 935 weeks ago
I'm not voting, but here's why.
This is the first time in a long time that I was starting to think Buckethead would come back. I was getting excited about it, and I even considered the possibility of Bucket, Bumble, Richard as the guitarists (which would kick ass)....
HOWEVER... it seems like everyone who is close to Buckethead in some shape or form, namely Saul and some other peeps, say there is next to NO chance and in fact hope he doesn't go back...
SO.. I really dont know.. the answer is probably no he is not coming back
Someone must have really upset him
It will be strange though if he is all over the album and yet playing small clubs whilst the band tours the world and talks to the press...whatever Bucket decides he's not going to avoid the inevitable questions about GNR, fuck it he might aswell just rejoin
#934 Re: Guns N' Roses » POLL: BH Returning? » 935 weeks ago
If the world suddenly goes mad for all things GNR and Bucket, he might find it hard to refuse.
But I don't see it happening, at least not as a full time member (is there any option for a one off?)
#935 Re: Guns N' Roses » Shackler's Revenge: REALLY confirmed » 935 weeks ago
IMO its a great USP for the game and for GNR
They need to get something about the song on the website. Think of all those 'casual listeners' going to the website and the first thing they see is about Robin...

Ahhhh, memories.
Was there any more detail about which song was going to be on this, or whethert the rumour was credible?
#937 Re: Guns N' Roses » Rumor: Unheard GNR song on Rockband 2 » 936 weeks ago
Will RB2 be available on the Wii?
Rock Band 2 is going to be available for all Xbox 360 first, with Wii, PS3, and PS2 versions coming out later.
Is it as good as Guitar Hero?
Guitar Hero is a game more oriented on guitar. Rock Band has songs that are more interesting for an entire "band" to play. Then again, Guitar Hero 4 is coming out in a few months, and it's going to feature guitar, mic, and drums. I guess when the tracklistings are revealed you can make your decision based on which songs you like more.
What is the user playability like?
User playability? Do you mean gameplay? Here's a vid:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=66-S6CxFlxsIs it worth the money?
I thought it was. It was cool to play drums by myself, and it was even funner with other people around.
Is the game like DVD's - i.e. if you buy the hardware and game in the US would it work on a UK DVD?
No idea.
Will RB2 be released in the UK at the same time as them US?
I don't know this one either.
Are the games backward compatible?
What do you mean by backward compatible?
Cheers
One thing I noticed is that you can by a premium drum kit that you can add a brain onto meaning you could also play it as a normal electronic drum kit. Pretty cool!
#938 Re: Guns N' Roses » Rumor: Unheard GNR song on Rockband 2 » 936 weeks ago
Can someone help me with these questions. I don't own a console but am thinking of buying a Wii. Rock Band 2 would be the perfect reason.

#939 Re: The Sunset Strip » Jimmy Page confirms more Led Zeppelin gigs » 936 weeks ago
Scabbie, thank you. it would be a dream come true. I fkn love LZ - wish i'd got in to the 02 gig. Have seen Robert play a few years ago and had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy a while back too (I was horribly starstruck and came across as a total tit I'm sure!) If I had a time machine I'd def pop back to see Zep playing in their heydey...
Not a problem. I'll let people know if I hear anything more, but from what I gather it could all happen very quickly. Take it all with a pinch of salt, but keep your eyes peeled and you never know 
One memory I'll always carry with me is going to one of my brother's friends father's 50th birthday party, way back. I got hideously drunk and ended up on stage (a soul band had been playing) with a mate and started doing the Fully Monty act. Robert (who was in attendance) bounds into the room and proceeds to watch myself and my brother reveal our backsides to the party.
From then on we were known as 'a couple of bums'.
#940 Re: Guns N' Roses » Chinese Democracy Tracklisting Speculation » 936 weeks ago
Someone should do a "coffee table" book on GNR but it includes nothing but random forum posts from the past 10 years.
That would be great, particularly if you could get current / ex members and people that worked on the album to comment on some of them
