Harmonix revealed on their
official forums today details of a title update for the 360 (Today) and PS3 (near future) as well as the songs that will not transfer from the original
Rock Band to
Rock Band 2.
The title update fixed the issue with un-hittable notes, lowers the threshold on gold star songs and allows the original
Rock Band to continue to purchase songs from the RB store. We should also be able to see an "export disc" tab under the extras option in the Rock Band menus.
The songs that won’t transfer for the $4.99 fee aren’t a big issue (covers of Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid” and Iron Maiden’s “Run to the Hills”) with the exception of “Enter Sandman” by Metallica. That is a bit of a disappointment, but maybe the ‘Black” album will be available on RB2 for purchase….One can hope…
