Rock Band Rocks Europe (Finally)
I feel for our European brothers and sisters since they always seem to get the shaft on release dates, often times getting things months after their Japanese and North American releases. Nowhere did I feel their pain as much as their excruciating wait to enjoy Rock Band which we here in the states have been enjoying or some time.
Well, it seems the wait is over! This morning, Harmonix announced that Rock band will be coming to European Xbox 360s on May 23. Not only that, but the Euro version will come nine exclusive tracks not available on the US version including two French tracks and three German tracks.
- Blur "Beetlebum" (English)
- Oasis "Rock 'n' Roll Star" (English)
- Tokio Hotel "Monsoon" (English)
- Muse "Hysteria" (English)
- Les Wampas "Manu Chao" (French)
- Playmo "New Wave" (French)
- Die Toten Hosen "Hier Kommt Alex" (German)
- Juli "Perfekte Welle" (German)
- H-Block X "Countdown to Insanity" (German)
The currently available 70+ North American DLC tracks will all be made available starting Tuesday, May 27th with each track selling for 160 MiS Points. After that, all new Rock Band DLC will be available simultaneously in the US and Europe on a weekly basis.
Congratulations Europe! You are now ready to ROCK!!!

All the best rock comes from europe anyway and it pretty much allways has, so logic speaking gaming wise it's only fair we Euros get completely shafted, or something.
To note is, that the price is at 240€ for the game and all the controllers. Thats nearly 380$...
