This goes to show you, not even the best of the best can always expert everything! Rush sits down and plays Rock Band on the “expert” setting on the song Tom Sawyer and manages a less than stellar performance.

Rock Band 2 Game + Instrument Bundle Delayed on 360Rock Band 2 Game + Instrument Bundle Delayed on 360
Suck. Really, that’s all you can say, the instruments for Rock Band 2 will not be out on launch time bundled with the Rock Band 2 title. You can buy the game separately and then pickup the instruments you need but it’s going to end up costing you in the end, you’ll save $50.00 buying them bundled together when it does ship.
For us Rock Band owners, this news isn’t that bad because we’ve got some starter instruments from Rock Band (and presumably Guitar Hero) so we’re all set on plastic hardware. For new gamers coming into this genre, you’re best off to wait until Mid October to buy the bundle and save yourself a bit of cash.
Those eager beavers can get the title on September 14th. Bundle buyers will have to wait a bit longer, just about the time the “timed exclusive” expires and you can purchase it on all platforms (PS3 and Wii included).
We’re guessing it’s just logistics speaking, it takes a lot of work to ship a game, let alone instruments let alone instruments and bundles. Last time we could only buy bundles, now we’ve got the opposite problem. Which is worse? Depends on if you own the first game or not!

One of the best “viral videos” of it’s time, Summoner Geeks shows people what D&D players are really like in the wild. The video plays upon many of the crazy scenarios in a typical Dungeons and Dragons session including the guy with no clue, the guy who changes his character sheet when it feels like it, that dude that argues about what their character did early when a problem arises now.
For those non D&D people, this is what it’s like being a true dork. Live it, love it. For our full rant on Summoner Geeks and viral videos checkout the TD Gaming Podcast Episode 74.

Rock Band 2 Songs ExpandedRock Band 2 Songs Expanded
Game Informer magazine is showing off a few more songs for Rock Band 2. The song list includes yet more great variety in their set list, it’s also said that you’ll be able to pose your characters and upload them to RockBand.com to show them off. Not sure that’s a killer feature, but additional features are always good for new game releases.
Anyway, latest song information:
- Bon Jovi – “Livin’ on a Prayer”
- Steve Miller Band – “Rock ‘n Me”
- Rage Against the Machine – “Testify”
- Billy Idol – “White Wedding Pt. 1”
- Joan Jett – “Bad Reputation”
- Avenged Sevenfold – “Almost Easy”
- Social Distortion – “I Was Wrong”
It wouldn’t be Rock Band without Bon Jovi, apparently, and the inclusion of Testify would make it a rocking good time. We get to flashback to White Wedding as well and you have to respect a game that includes Steve Miller Band!
Recently we received a few tidbits of their song list, now this! Soon we’ll have the entire confirmed list of songs (barring the rumors which have been very accurate so far). What songs would you love to see in a Rock Band game?
