Rock Band tracks are usually $2 a pop, and when in a pack they are discounted. So by the math $36 is asking a lot. The Chili Peppers album cost $20 and is out today, with 16 tracks ("Give It Away" is not on there because they are dumb, er, I mean because it is part of RB2.
Yes it is one hell of a set of songs. And hell yes it will rock to play AC/DC in Rock Band, but this is Wal-Mart isn't it? Always the low price my ass.
Also Josh you can find solace in Paprocki. He doesn't get the music games either. Of course he just doesn't know any of the music in them to begin with, but there you go, you and Matt are the last men in America who don't understand the appeal.
The AC/DC pack is damn pricey. Even at $36 it is pushing it. If they were smart (they are not, they have signed a deal with Wal-mart) they would have released it as actual DLC and that would mean it would not cost them to produce a DVD and packaging, allowing them to make it cheaper.
Which brings me to another point. All RB or RB2 owners are going to do is drop the DVD/BD into their console, export the songs, and be done with it. Worthless waste if you ask me.
I am also surprised they are not bringing Black Ice to RB. Which would be nice considering that Guitar Hero sniped Death Magnetic, which was originally set to be Rock Band DLC.
Nicely done article Josh, thanks.

It should be noted that Variety has learned that the Rock Band AC/DC disc will not have online play. So you would have to export the songs and play them in RB1 or RB2 to play the songs online.

Thanks for the comments and price comparison data, Ken. Being completely outside this little universe, I knew nothing of it.
Hathaway, Paprocki, and Saleski = elite? I'm not seeing it. :D

Oh man, Saleski, I forgot (but now remember) you are in that camp to.
I am terribly sorry. It will never (maybe) happen again.
