Rock Band 2 patched on PS3 to make way for Rock Band Network

Harmonix continues to show that it cares about
Rock Band 2 fans with more than just
weekly DLC. The developer has announced a patch for the PS3 version of the game that adds support for the upcoming Rock Band Network Store -- the interface for selling songs added to
Rock Band by fans, musicians and record labels through the new
Rock Band Network. If you were lamenting your current inability to purchase songs made by
some dude, now you can take heart!
The update also adds the "much more robust handling of chord hammer-ons and pull-offs" found in
The Beatles: Rock Band, support for
SingStar wireless microphones, support for velocity sensitivity with Ion Drum Rocker drums, and the ability to sort songs in Quickplay by the number of stars you've earned on each song.
The update will be available this Thursday.
