Rush album delayed, Locksley secured as Rock Band DLC

by Alan Tsang { Aug 28th 2008 at 7:30PM }

Due to "unforeseen technical difficulties," the planned Moving Pictures album by Rush won't be arriving this week -- it looks like it might take a couple of weeks to fix. Instead, Harmonix will be releasing a three song selection from the Brooklyn-based band Locksley for this week's Rock Band DLC:

"She Does"
"Dont Make Me Wait"
"All Over Again"

Each song will be $0.99 while the entire Locksley Pack 1 containing all three songs will be $2.99. These should be available shortly for download via the PlayStation Store.

Does not make up for delaying rush.....

Gosh darn it. Who the hell is Locksley anyway?

So by purchasing all three songs separately you are going to save $0.02 as opposed to purchasing the Package of those SAME songs for $2.99? This way they can dupe many to get that extra cash from thousands of Rock Band players. Sly they are.

they have taxes with each song.
as a whole it doesn't

I have no idea what kevin is trying to say. But this is simply the result of the PS store having preset prices for everything.

@bathtub(lol at ur name)
im saying if you buy a single song they charge tax.
if you buy the pack there is no tax.
so if you buy the three songs separately its 3.21 so if you buy the pack its 2.99

How much money would one have had to spend if they d/l'd even half the music that RB or GH have put out as DLC? It's gotta be well over $100 for the game at this point. It's a shame that they won't let you rip your own songs from your own music collection...

kevin @ Aug 28th 2008 10:56PM

how would the charting work?
and in fact it is over 100 dollars.

Mike @ Aug 28th 2008 11:14PM

actually Kev, there is tax on the 3 pack also do them separately and then do the bundle the difference is one penny (LITERALLY)

Rip your own songs.... You own the masters to all the music you'd want to play on RB and/or have the time to sit down and analyze all the parts to code them yourself? You do realize what goes in to making a song file, right?

Dru @ Aug 29th 2008 11:45AM

Why not? I already own the music they are releasing which they've obviously already "coded"(BTW, it doesn't take forever to "code" the tracks, hence the fact that they've added music, and a lot of it, weekly for 8 or 9 months). Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't RB have the audio tracks as well? I'm sure that they could come up with a way to take music off the h/d and format it into the correct "code" since they already done so. If you don't own the song, d/l it. Otherwise let me pay less (or free) for something I ALREADY OWN...

Of course, they'd obviously be losing too much money by doing that...

I know that Beats isn't the same game as RB or GH, but a simple $5 d/l can turn your music into a game why can't multi-million dollar disc-based games do something similar on some level?
