    Achievements : looks like they are on the super easy side apart from the harmonies which are a pain unless they are obtainable over an xbox live game.
    Definitely easier than RB: Beatles :(

    Oh don't look if you don't to know what they are ;)


    I was going to paste them on here but they are difficult to read when I do that so ill just link to them http://www.joystiq.com/2010/04/15/green-day-rock-band-achievements-walk-a-lonely-road/

    One or 2 like the 100 overdrives as vocalist that will take time to grind out.

    Buying my sister's Wii from her just so I can get this. I don't do games normally but this is Green Day related so it's imperative.

    I'd never have guessed you were a greenday fan :D

    Rock band 2 has tonnes of stuff to download and already has some green day for it, worth looking at if you develop a liking for plastic guitars and stuff :)

    as long as they only use songs from 1039 s.o.s.h to nimrod it'll be alright all the later stuff is bollox

    a clash rockband would be fun

    Let's keep it civil in here! I hate new Green Day as much as the next guy, but if you want to argue the finer points of their music "evolution" head over to the music forum :)

    I'll pick the demo up, thanks for the heads up Calex :)

    i didnt realise how long welcome to paradise was till last night, gonna try the vocals tonight, :D


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    I played this today, it was... okay I guess. It just feels so RB2? I mean Beatles is like a totally different game, but GD, not so much. 5 starred Longview anyway, and 5GS BoBD.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,419 ✭✭✭allanb49


    is it cheating if you have a 4 piece band *no smart arse replys about Jason White* :P


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    And if you don't wear eye shadow and a red tie, you can't play the newer songs :D

    The menus reminded me of some of the recent non numbered GH games :eek:
    And the run way was solid black not transparent like in RB2, but yes Beatles sparkle is not present here !!!!!!

    Looks like you get what you pay for. Venues, outfits and instruments change, the song list will probably please most Green Day fans...

    Personally, I thought BoBD was a horrifically boring chart, but hey, I don't even like the song.

    No surprises really, like the fact I can export all the songs and sell it on unlike the beatles

    Tisk tisk, no love for the devs :P

    And doesn't that mean whoever buys it wont be able to export the songs?

    Correct and right, I owe dev's nothing with all the dlc I have :eek:, after doing the sums i paid €30 from amazon as i had vouchers, if i can sell for 20 -25 and add the 800 points it costs to export, at most it will cost me 31c a song.

    No US today and here Friday, although I'm passing a few places in a bit so ill nip in check just in case they have lost the plot and released it early.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,419 ✭✭✭allanb49

  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION
