It's not weird, it's explained right in the RBN docs why. The game is rated T and song releases are targeted towards that even though DLC doesn't have to be T.

The version they used for Guitar Hero had all the goddamns intact, though.

Let's just agree that both companies had weird policies regarding censoring (lest we forget the amusing chucklefucks Neversoft churned out for both American Pie and 2 Minutes to Midnight).

Shit was demoted as a cussword like 3 years ago :p

Goddamn gets censored out if it's used repeatedly through the song (but is also a result of them getting the radio edit).

Bitch and shit are "whatever", it just depends on what master they get.


The only two that aren't allowed at all are cunt and fuck.

What's the official stance on dick? Can there be a lot of dicks, are they limited to just one dick, or does the dick have to be censored out?

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

I remember forever ago Rock Band threads were basically people begging for more Paramore all the time, lol.

That thread has gone on almost another quarter of a million posts since it left GAF. Truly frightening. No one wants Paramore any more now.

Not me....

I'll buy the Panic song but that is probably it.
I read the reveal and then thought 'Damn, Fueled by Ramen' has gone downhill, but after thinking back to some of their older artists and looking up a list, I realized they never had that good of bands on their label.

That is how I thought they would do it. There is no way they would charge regular price for the entire song, and that is a good price considering how damn long it is. Fantastic news, and if this cold does not get worse in the next two days, I know what I will be playing on New Years Eve.

Looking to pick up some songs that are fun to play on Expert Drums, as example Iron Maiden is pretty fun, songs full of double bass I don't really find fun

Any recommendations? I already have all Alice in Chains and Nirvana songs...thinking about picking up missing Slipknot

Even something like that Chicago song (25 or 6 to 4) is pretty fun to play. I also like playing the Rise Against songs but maybe even some more down tempo things would be fine as long as they have a little bit of challenge.

This is probably the best place to post that I blew a big chunk of my $35 4000 point card on Beatles DLC. I never bought any on Xbox, as I had bought several songs on the Wii and felt generally cheesed off about my wasted money on Wii.

But it's 2012 and I want Harmonix to stay in business, and I really wanted to try out the Abbey Road medley, so what the hey. I got the X360 megabundle dirt cheap back when (I think $90 new shipped?), so it sort of evens out.

Shame that Rubber Soul beat out Revolver, though :\

The whole album for Revolver isn't available?

I agree with you, though. I just think Rubber Soul is massively overrated, nearly as much as Sgt. Pepper's.

I always liked the songs off of Sgt Pepper but thought the album was overrated. But then recently I sat and listened to the entire album at once and think it is incredible now. That is one that the sum is truly greater than the parts.

Anyone else playing on Live when this goes up? I'm considering streaming the medley as soon as it finishes downloading. Probably on Bass. If anyone would want to join me, that'd be neat.

When does the Fantomenk track release?... On PS3... If ever.

It's dependent on sales and demand. You can post here to add to the demand, but if it's not generally popular or really different (they like to mix it up so it's not all big names and metal) it has a lower chance of making it.
