I really wish they'd put Rush's "The Spirit of Radio" or "Fly By Night" out for Rock Band, but at least these new releases are masters...

By the way, that 'Closer To The Heart' video with all the different decades of them performing that song is sick... Those guys must have sold their souls to the devil, because they're aging waaaay too well to be normal... or maybe it's the maple syrup?

i didnt know they did that for scratched disks. i thought the replacement plan was just for the instruments.
do i just go to the website to do that or do i have to call them up?

It's something EA does, it costs like $20. Somewhere on their website they have a thing about it.

Just about every company does it, and the standard is $20... It's just not very well known ;)

I think there is something in the back of the manuals in the back of most games...

I hate that I'm a bit late to offer this advice, but I've had my 360 scratch 2 discs (Rockband and DDR). I just took them to my local mom and pop disc shop and had them refinish the discs for me. It took about 3 minutes and cost me $1.09 USD each. They both worked like a charm after that. Then Rockband was stolen out of my car :(

Also, if you are in good with your local blockbuster/hollywood video/family video employees ... they've been known to do it for the free.

I would not recommend spending 30 bucks on the thing they have at gamestop.

My 360 scratched my Rock Band disc up and I called Microsoft and Harmonix back and forth until eventually I was sent to EA's number. I sent them my messed up copy and got a replacement for free besides the shipping cost.

WTF is a "Vault Edition"? I already paid for a cover version of Working Man... I'm upset if they are trying to charge me again for the same song but a Master Track this time.

This.

I don't want to have to pay for a song I already downloaded whether or not it's a master/alternate version/whatever. Absolutely ridiculous.

We require more RHCP. Stadium Arcadium was good and all but there's so many more songs to choose from.

Also, I think there should be a movie starring Chad Smith but they should market is as a Will Ferrell movie to see if they can fool the entire world.

If RHCP ever goes belly-up, Chad Smith has a promising career as a Will Ferrell stunt double.

2 things:

1. Brilliant Chad Smith / Will Ferrell switcheroo idea.

2. I love your username.

That is all.

God, Under the Bridge is soooo over played. I love that song but if it's the only one from Blood Sugar Sex I'll go crazy. That entire album is fanf*ckingtastic! I'd venture a guess and say that it would receive more downloads than Pixies and Judas Priest albums combined. And clearly, RHCP is not adverse to having their music in a game.

Good to see I wasted points on the cover Working Man.

Also sucks to see that the RHCP songs are new :( how about something from Uplift Mofo, or BSSM?

it would be cool if they just replaced the cover of Working Man with the new master track. That way everyone could re-download it. Rush master tracks! There is a god!

I know people are going to hate me for saying this... But I kinda hoped that Snow would be in GHIV along with Under The Bridge. (I know that there's still a chance...)

Finally, Rush master tracks and more RHCP! This is a pretty awesome week in my opinion. I might pick up all the tracks later on.

Now release Rush's Red Barchetta! And make sure it's a master track!

I was a big fan of harmonix before, but releasing a master track after a cover and making us pay full price for each is really messed up. That's a big thumbs down from me.
