I wish they would release some White Stripes DLC. 7th Nation Army, Black Math, Girl You've Got No Faith In Your Medicine, etc. That would be cool...
LeadBoxx @ Oct 29th 2008 9:54AM
Hell yeah those are choice White Stripe songs!
baby sea tuna @ Oct 29th 2008 10:10AM
Jesus, can you imagine how boring the drum parts for those would be?
Yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow, yellow, blue. Repeat.
Eli Gundry @ Oct 29th 2008 11:52AM
That's why you don't play drums...=)
Shagittarius @ Oct 29th 2008 1:56PM
I'm not sure if your making fun of baby sea tuna, or drummers in general, but I'm going to guess that your one of those show-off wanky lead guitarists.
Cesaria (Gamertag: Cesaria360) @ Oct 29th 2008 3:55PM
I would love some White Stripes, but they don't typically use bass. I'm thinking "Ball and Biscuit" would be the ultimate Stripes song. While I'm on the subject...Wilco, of Montreal, and Flaming Lips please!
Eli Gundry @ Oct 29th 2008 5:25PM
@Shagittarius
Oh no, nothing like that. It's just that those songs would be fun for everyone, I feel. If you don't like the drums part for any song that you already have, would you play it?
Comet @ Oct 29th 2008 9:50AM
I only have one burrning Desire.
Comet @ Oct 29th 2008 10:02AM
And it would be more Hendrix.
Young_Nastyman @ Oct 29th 2008 9:59AM
Fuck, I really didn't want to buy this game
* "If 6 Was 9"
* "Little Wing"
* "Fire" (Live version)
These are, imo, some of the best Hendrix songs out there.
So I'm gonna have to buy it, unless Harmonix confirms that they're gonna release some Hendrix by then.
FSK405K @ Oct 29th 2008 12:03PM
Nice yes. Harmonix, get better DLC or we'll buy GH4 even though their interface and star power sucks.
Young_Nastyman @ Oct 29th 2008 12:32PM
It's not a threat, I'm just that big of a fan of those 3 songs (more specifically Fire)
busydoingnothing @ Oct 29th 2008 6:01PM
I'm with you, brutha. If it weren't for Hendrix and The Doors, I could easily pass on GHWT, but man...they're making it REAL hard for me.
dark_inchworm @ Oct 29th 2008 10:06AM
So when are they permanently cutting prices on GH3 content? You know, so perhaps I'm compelled to buy it?
oolz @ Oct 29th 2008 10:25AM
I'd sure like some Hendrix, but I'm not going to buy a lesser game just for a few songs.
Mike @ Oct 29th 2008 10:53AM
I would kill for the Raconteurs in Rock Band... grrrrr Consoler of the Lonely would be so awesome.
bearxor @ Oct 29th 2008 11:16AM
Is this it? I mean, there was DLC on launch day, right? DLC a month later? I haven't seen any news on DLC for GHWT. Do they expect 6 tracks a month to stem off the tide of Rock Band tracks?
Tez @ Oct 29th 2008 12:05PM
Agreed; if this is the best they can do each month, it's not gonna cut it.

Monkeydog @ Oct 29th 2008 2:44PM
Mainly because all the DLC information was announced months ago. (Oasis, REM, Smashing Pumpkins...)
RavenPaul @ Oct 29th 2008 12:13PM
Wow, they can't even remotely compete with RB DLC. This is a joke. And Hendrix only in a pack. What arrogant greedy bastards.
tooPrime @ Oct 29th 2008 12:56PM
What's your problem? You want an exclusive 18 song Hendrix expansion only available at Walmart for 40 dollars? Would that be the non-greedy bastard thing to do?
andyg8180 @ Oct 29th 2008 12:19PM
I like how everyone is bitching about the amount of GHWT DLC compared to RB... RB has been out a year with sometimes 3 songs per week... Let them get started you bunch of babies... And remember, not all of RB DLC has been blockbuster... I do recall some craptastic songs being implemented...
bearxor @ Oct 29th 2008 1:25PM
the point is that Harmonix hit the ground running with DLC and hasn't let up since. I think I can think of two weeks that harmonic hasn't delivered DLC. this isn't necessarily about what the best DLC is, it's about Neversoft overcoming the failed DLC policies of GH3 and prove that they can execute a consistent DLC release schedule that is AT LEAST on par with Harmonix.
Kyera @ Oct 29th 2008 11:09PM
Harmonix actually hasn't missed a single week. They had one week with less than three songs (April 1st, with Still Alive) and they almost missed a week with the Moving Pictures problems, but still got tracks out (the Locksley pack) by Thursday.
andyg8180 @ Oct 30th 2008 11:07AM
Green Jacket, Gold Jacket who gives a shit... GHWT got Jessies girl on release day... Jeezus christ... Plus just because you release weekly DLC doesnt mean its good DLC...
BBF Epic @ Oct 29th 2008 1:35PM
Little Wing = Sold (not like I wasn't buying it anyway though...)
Jeff @ Oct 29th 2008 1:44PM
The Raconteurs suck. I'll probably shell out for the overpriced Hendrix pack for Little Wing, though.
I would have rather had Manic Depression than If 6 Was 9, but whatever.
False @ Oct 29th 2008 2:31PM
Overpriced? It's the exact same price as a RB three-pack. How is it overpriced?
Biff_McFresh @ Oct 29th 2008 4:45PM
They had me at "Little Wing"
willie @ Oct 29th 2008 5:28PM
i thought i was gonna not get GH IV but damn, neversoft's playing a tough ballgame here.
consoler of the lonely!
lorddshadow @ Oct 29th 2008 5:55PM
:)
jack white and jimi hendrix are my idols! now where the hell are my buckethead tracks?! i want jordan rereleased for gh:wt and soothsayer, welcome to bucketheadland, and nottingham lace at the very least to be offered. they have a good relationship with buckethead so it shouldn't be a problem.

We need a Weezer pack spanning a number of albums. Give a listen to "Say it ain't so" and tell me that wouldn't be an awesome song for all instruments...
