This November console gamers will be able to purchase a new Track Pack for Rock Band and Rock Band 2. While Activision’s Guitar Hero: Aerosmith sells over 1-million copies, MTV and Harmonix look to prove they too can push big numbers on exclusive artist packs.
Unlike Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, Rock Band and Rock Band 2 are the core game engine and the track packs extend out the game with a bunch of new songs, in this case, AC/DC. Gamers who opt not to purchase the latest Rock Band 2 game still have access to AC/DC’s new tracks if they go to the store and buy them.
The trick? This is a Wal-Mart (and Sams Club) exclusive deal; you won’t find this track pack at another retailer.
“If you want to be a physical band, you better make an alliance with a strong physical retailer,” Columbia Records chairman Steve Barnett told the Times. “It’s a great way to sell the new album, the catalog, the game, merchandise and DVDs.”(gamespot)
This Track Pack contains 99 minutes of songs, the tracks include:
- “Thunderstruck” “Shoot to Thrill”
- “Back in Black “Hell Ain’t a Band Place to Be.”
- “Heatseeker”
- “Fire Your Guns”
- “Jailbreak”
- “The Jack” “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap”
- “Moneytalks”
- “Hell’s Bells”
- “Whole Lotta Rosie”
- “You Shook Me All Night Long”
- “T.N.T.”
- “Let There Be Rock”
- “Highway to Hell”
- “For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)”
Will AC/DC do as well as Aerosmith? I’ve never been a big AC/DC fan, but then again, I didn’t buy into the Aerosmith product either, however, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith doesn’t include drumming…

Thank you for mentioning me!
I referenced the part from episode 423 regarding Jesse Eisenberg in American Ultra where he’s paranoid/anxious until he gets his weed and how stoners can get paranoid after they’re high and think cops are coming.
My user name was supposed to have a cool “A” as 4, so it would read as “Lad”; I was using this user name before Left 4 Dead was publicly announced, and my Steam account is ]_4]), but I don’t like to tell people this for fear of hacking…
Regrading politics, I’ve seen your support for Hillary, so I do not want to discuss politics, but my main issue against Hillary is that she might be part of the New World Order; I hope she is not a member, since she will most likely be the next president…
I neglected to state my Steam account creation date, which is 4/14/2004. I have a similarly named Gmail account with L4d in it, which was created around that time, too.
Is there a way to edit these comments?
