Harmonix CEO Alex Rigopulos announced that
Rock Band has some serious plans for delivering content to players. First off, Harmonix plans to release new music tracks
every week. They can be released in singles, multi track bundles, or more deliciously, full albums. As an example Alex announced that The Who's
Who's Next would be available for download following the game's release.
As icing on the proverbial cake, selections spanning Metallica's musical career will be made available, with "Enter Sandman" playable on the retail disc. All in all, Harmonix is pushing Rock Band more as a platform than just a
game, and we couldn't agree with the prospect more. We'll be back with hands on impressions and a proper tribute to Weezer as soon as we can.

Enter Sandman is a lame song. Everything after AJFA is pretty dull actually. They'd better have Master of Puppets in it or blood will be spilled.

-More Guitar Hero II content released at same outrageous price.
-The Strokes announced to be in Rock Band (along with other cool stuff)
If I have to choose between Rock Band and Guitar Hero III things aren't looking good for Guitar Hero III...

The whole "Who's Next"? I was sold for this game with Won't Get Fooled Again, but if Baba O'Riley and Behind Blue Eyes are promised, this is a face-melter.
