I watched a bunch of that Seattle Rock Band stream last night - mostly to cheer on some goons of my acquaintance who made it there - but it was pretty nuts. Also I question Drewjitsu's choice of Free Bird in the tiebreaker. I will probably give him some poo poo about it.

Everyone who wasn't in the front row wasn't very thrilled. Especially since the guy managed to miss everything while on medium. It took a lot of the wind out of everyone's drunk sails. I hope you watched the whole song through though because Moist.Horse saved the night by breaking out the Pro keys for 6-player Love Shack, ultimately winning the entire comp and getting some cash and a free RB4 band-in-a-box courtesy of Harmonix and SRG.

Yeah, it's tough, since I know that dude and wanted him to win, especially because the other team got into the playoff with that unutterably terrible ultimate showdown song, but Horse picked the better tiebreaker song and played it better as well. C'est la vie.

farottone posted:That feeling when you have to reorganize an entire floor of your house, in the process of moving things you unearth your old MIDI Rocker LX you totally forgot about because you bought the MIDI Pro Adapter, you remember that the LX is attached to a wireless RB2 hacked drums controller and realise that you can play RB4 on the Xbox One with your ekit on launch day with just a dongle. Yeah, ok, it's a pretty specific and convoluted feeling but it's really cool. Any doubt that crept in about preordering has been voided. If you don't have one of these, the company is looking into another production run for RB4. It's pricey, and I still can't justify the cost of a new console, but I'm happy to know my e-drums will one day work in RB4.

C'est la vie. I'm friends with the folks who made up "Moist.Horse" and they tell me they are friends with Niel Cissigersissisceiceiseessseresssiega (whoever makes Lemon Demon) and they insist on playing that song at all their shows even though it's ehhhh not a very good recording. I can't stand the song either, since my band has been covering it for like a decade, and the re-record throws out all the fun parts to the "others" track and makes everyone just play the riffs.

I only play on one instrument and tend to play songs because I like them, not because I want to analyze which charts are better (not to discredit you guys! The charts you all put out are amazing!) so I worry something like this will just be a song popularity contest misconstrued as a "which chart was done best" contest. Also it leaves me unable to vote on most categories. Maybe "best songs in a genre" categories would have been more interesting to most people.

We'd love to know what songs people loved, which artists they discovered, etc., I'm not sure what we messed up in the presentation to give the idea that we are holding a "best chart" contest but if you point me to that I'll make sure to correct course.

I guess just because all the categories are instrument based, 90% of people who only play one instrument are only going to have an opinion in one category. That, combined with the massive amount of choices available, makes it tough to pick anything and not worry like "oh I must be leaving something out".

The massive amount is due to the fact that we can't pre-select songs, we can't just leave out any author's work (but the search feature should help). Only 3 pages are instrument based, the rest is best pack, best theme, best week, best blog post, etc. But I reworded the drop down to say "Select your favourite song" to make it clear that except for the Most accurate chart category, everything else is about how much you enjoyed the custom. so thanks for pointing it out.

Well gently caress; upon seeing the above post, I didn't realize that there were more categories than just the ones on the front page. My mistake!! Still, leading off with "best of" feels overwhelming... I'll do my best.

Playing RB4 has me considering booting up RB3 again. I know this has been posted multiple times through the thread but does anyone have a link to a guide on setting up customs for RB3? I have a spare USB stick and I understand I'll need to run different title update versions if I want to keep leaderboards and such, but with C3 shutting down soon I figure I might as well jump in while I have the chance.

Get a memory stick, format it. Download c3. Download the songs you want. Use the RB to USB converter; right click add songs to drive. Make sure to add title update 4 (it will be in one of the top menus). Delete Title update five from wherever it is on your Xbox. Unplug your xbox Internet, plug in your usb and get to playing.

But do disconnect your Xbox from the internet if you're hosting a party with customs. I... learned this the hard way, one sad drunken night.

Make sure to add title update 4 (it will be in one of the top menus). You kinda got it right. You can't "download C3" - I think you meant C3 CON Tools. That's just one small part of everything available to you from C3. RBtoUSB is a file management too, not a converter and certainly is not converting RB files to USB (files? format?). But yeah, that's the recommended tool if the player has updated their Xbox dashboard (which I would suggest everyone do, but you know, i'm sure there are reasons not to).

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm looking to preorder soon. I've owned a couple of the sets for PS3 (the original RB1 which broke a ton) and later a Beatles set. I'm thinking of buying a new set as all my guitars are in pretty rough shape and I think at least one of my microphones is crapping out. That being said, I didn't use the Beatles set THAT much and it's still in good shape, so I'm not sure I want to buy a whole set when I might not need the drums and I could just buy a mic on top of it. Is the new mic basically the RB3 mic but with a longer cord? I never bought the RB3 one because of the cord length and I heard they were lighter than the original ones and I liked the original's weight. Are the new drums much different than the Beatle's ones.

This is an awesome week. My 360 broke a month or so ago and not being able to play these weekly is killing me. Going to be rebuying a 360 just for Rock Band pretty soon.

I'm not sure how great the album will be in RB outside of Paranoid Android, Electioneering, and maybe SHA. I'll still download it because it's a fantastic album.

Hot drat, these last several weeks have been excellent. Haven't listeded to OK Computer in ages, so this seems as good an excuse as any to reexperience it. I also look forward to playing Jumpin' Jack Flash in a music game where it isn't specifically engineered to kick my rear end.

At least the intros were skippable in EBA. If you're playing Ouendan I hope you like a really long cutscene before Ready Steady Go kicks your rear end in the first section.
