Definitely pick up the Great Plains, Semi Charmed Life, And the Price isn’t bad… than whatever else you want.
I could be mistaken but it seems quite pointless when RBN V.II is released on the other consoles with the extra charts….

So… you’re complaining because the community finally got something it wanted?

No, I’m glad for them, I just think it’s a shame they’re so far behind. I feel in all fairness, each console should really be equal. Personal opinion and ofc know that’s not easy but really should be that way.

True, you’re opinion, but that’s crap. The Wii is a last-gen console with no hard drive and a sub-par independent developer program. Expecting it to do the same thing as Microsoft’s Xbox 360 is not reasonable, and getting bitter about it is not fair to 360 owners. Why would you hold one console (with the bigger fanbase and appetite for DLC too, I might add) at fault for another’s technical limitations?
The Wii was also behind on regular DLC, but they caught up. I’m expecting the Wii will get caught up to the PS3 RBN DLC, just like it did with normal DLC.

RBN v2 will only be usable for RB3 anyway, which should be coming to Wii at the exact same time as the other 2 consoles.
OK, so now… what about us Xbox users still outside the reach of RBN (like here in Mexico)? When is it coming?

That’s a question for Microsoft Mexico, sadly.
Finally the Wii gets some love! Only one I know of those is Ultimate Showdown, so that’s my only definite pickup.
lmao. There is going to be a massive ****storm if the Wii users are able to get 10 songs a week and PS3 users only get 5.

There’s no way that will happen. The only way the Wii would get more would be as a “catch up” to match the PS3 amount, similar to how they did it for older DLC.

I know there isn’t a very good possibility of that happening, doesn’t mean it wouldn’t be funny to see though.

Harmonix has been hard at work for a few months to get the PSN amount up to 10 songs a week. Sony is the obstacle to be overcome, not Harmonix.
Good for the Wii! Definitely check out ‘The Great Plains’ and look forward to the Children of Nova songs. I’m sure they will make their way eventually.

I never made any mention whatsoever that I thought this was HMX’s fault. Stop assuming.

I never meant to attack you on that assumption. I meant to emphasize that Sony is blocking the way.

I really hope the Harmonix keeps fighting.. 5 songs a week is so lame.. and most of the choices aren’t that “Great”.. there’s much better stuff except 3 metal songs a week.
THIS IS AWESOME!!!! Its about time… but I wont believe it until i see it! Bodies, I Know Who I Am, Semi-Charmed, Survive from this selection… I am really pumped because I know those Seether tunes will be coming around the pike hopefully!
holy fucking shit thank you harmonix!!
FUCK YES FINALLY!!!!!!!
0_0! So excited! The startup has some excellent tracks.
Good for them… now could we actually get the game required to play these tracks?
(Yes, I know I’m harping on, but I’m REALLY starting to get pissed now.)
About bloody time tbh. Will probably pick up The Ultimate Showdown, but I will most likely leave I Know What I Am and Bodies till GH:WoR.
So basically, We are getting RBN on the Wii version of Rock Band 3?
