Rock Band II Confirmed...by Funcom?

Oogity_Boogity_Boo | June 13, 2008 | News | Playstation 3 XBOX 360 
Funcom, the publisher of Age of Conan, has let it slip that Rock Band 2 is on the way. Everyone already knew this, but hey, now it's confirmed. While talking about the soundtrack for Age of Conan, Funcom stated that Turbonegro, a Scandinavian rock band who will be featured in the game, is also going to be on Rock Band 2.
Age of Conan publisher confirms the heavily rumoured sequel for MTV Games and Harmonix Rock Band...

Typically publishers shy away from talking about their competitors work, but it seems Age of Conan publisher Funcom has inadvertently confirmed the development of Rock Band II.

Although it hardly comes as a surprise, the "announcement" comes by way of a press release regarding the Age of Conan soundtrack. Revealing that Turbonegro, who we're informed is one of Scandinavia's biggest rock bands, will feature in the soundtrack, Funcom lets slip that the band has also featured on... Rock Band II.

Whatever next? Nintendo announcing Halo 4?

    I wonder when it would come out, and whether it would be compatable with existing controllers (you'd think so).

    I just got Rock Band a week ago, after all >_>

    This game is just like Guitar Hero but with drums. If you ask me, they should come up with something a bit more original.

    The entire game is a rip off of guitar hero (well, they're the same people so thats fair), Singstar and Drummania
