News on Rock Band 2's DLC

reaver11 | August 28, 2008 | News | Playstation 2 Playstation 3 
With the disappointment of this weeks DLC comes the news of what should be an interesting years end. Today we get info on a slew of upcoming downloadable albums for the yet-to-be released Rock Band 2. While Harmonix have yet to live up to their promise to release Nevermind as DLC, this news should please nonetheless.
While there's been a lot of talk over the last few years about the inevitable death of the album format, the videogame industry doesn't appear to be listening. On Sept. 12, Metallica will release a gameplay version of their new record, Death Magnetic, through Guitar Hero, and two days later, Rock Band 2 debuts, and with it, the promise of 500 tracks by year's end. Stocking the digital bins, EW.com has learned exclusively, will be seminal full albums by Foo Fighters (The Colour and the Shape), Red Hot Chili Peppers (Blood Sugar Sex Magik), Jane's Addiction (Nothing's Shocking), Megadeth (Peace Sells... But Who's Buying) and Stevie Ray Vaughn (Texas Flood), along with a specially-compiled No Doubt Best Of collection. All are slated to roll out in the coming months, according to MTV Games.
