Pro Guitar upgrades. Awesome!!!

Look, I am a 80's girl and love the songs you have been putting out. I love the 80's but, yes we need variety plus,pay attention to the biggest hits of every kind of music and try to put them out. I would love to have Five Finger Death Punch "Coming Down" just because of the great drums!! But, then again I would love to have some Phil Collins/Genesis too back to my 80's. Thanks!! Keep them songs coming!!

I just don't understand. Every week everyone wants something for themselves. Well guess what you're not the only one that plays RB. There are those of us who play for fun (and can't/won't play most metal tracks). So stop whining...you don't see the Springfield fans whining when other tracks are released. So if it's not your cup of tea this week, maybe next week will be.

What a bunch of whiners. Sorry RB didn't add Fetal Corpse or Bloody Appendages' biggest hits this week. I'd get a Squier just to play these pro songs. RS is incredibly underrates as a songwriter and guitarist. He has an amazing catalog of songs - and you can even understand the lyrics. What a bonus!

You guys should really consider on putting better songs on Rockband. I know some of these songs are good to listen to but I personally believe they are not a challenge to play. I want something harder rather than easy and will get boring after a while.

Man, you guys sure know to overreact over nothing xD. Rock Band hasn't done anything at all to make me think any less of them. This might not be a week for me, sure, but there -have- been weeks for me. So thanks anyways Rock Band; you're the best :). I'm grateful. P.S.: I did get Blitz in part to get Jessie's Girl early, however. x)

If this is the music you are going to continue to put i will no longer be a part of Rockband. I think this game is going downhill cause the people behind are more interested in making money than making the fans of the game happy. I spent a lot of money in my own pathetic life on this games downloads at least put decent rock music out.

Now THIS is "instabuy" material! Fun songs to add to my collection. :-)

Big mistake to compare RICK SPRINGFIELD to Wham or Culture Club. He plays a mean guitar, is incredibly underrated for the work he did AFTER the album culled from here, and he actually has some outstanding songs that would qualify for Rock Band -- LOVE SOMEBODY being probably my #1 choice. Unfortunately, the two songs they've added here... not much of rock songs, which I agree is disappointing. I guess it's time to start making some noise with the music requests so we don't get lesser songs like these in the catalog. And LOVE SOMEBODY would've been such a jam too. :-(

Really???? Come on guys........Are you running out of songs? You can do better than this.......Why don't you just start doing Wham! or Culture Club? OH! I got it.......that Justin Bieber kid! NOT!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the kind of garbage that caused GH to die!!! Give us a reason to keep playing your game, or I'm gonna switch to R-Smith 100%
