A new track pack for Guitar Hero III has been released, and this time it's all about No Doubt. Yes, the same No Doubt featuring Gwen Stefani, the woman who stole Gavin Rossdale and crushed the dreams of thousands of women everywhere. The track pack includes the following songs for the price of 500 MS Points:
Fans will be happy to know that all three songs are master tracks, so no one will have to suffer through someone attempting to sing like Gwen Stefani (really dodged a bullet there, seriously). So, when do we get a Bush track pack, hmmm?
I second that. Whenever I see "new track pack" and a band name, I automatically assume it's going to be for Rock Band, since GH never seems to release anything. What a shame. This would have been the first whole pack I would have purchased too. So far it's only been individual songs.
I only wish they were on Rock Band. I will not buy them on GH cause I never play it. It would be a waste of points. Hopefully no doubt tracks will come to RB.
The guitarist(s) for No Doubt were pretty good, though they were a ska-pop/punk outfit, and those riddims are usually far easier to play then standard rock and roll fare, or the anthem/pop rock GH makes so palatable.
But yeah, the band was not a guitar powerhouse, so Rock Band would have made far more sense, given Gwen's pipes and the mic on Rock Band. Plus, if you can drum naked in your house along with Adrian, Tony, Gwen, and Tom
(Tom Dumont, Gwen Stefani, Adrian Young, Tony Kanal; Stephen Bradley and Gabe Mc Nair)
It would've been brilliant on Rock Band. My wife is going to be upset.
If Activision was smart they'd join the open platform stance and release a patch (DLC) that would allow their games to take advantage of the ROCK BAND drums, guitar, and mic. How awesome would it be to actually play GH again with all instruments!
This is disappointing. I can think of a billion better songs that are better suited for guitar hero. These are way better for rock band for the singing.

I agree, it would have been a must-buy for me if it was in RB.

I'd get those for my girlfriend if I thought the notecharts would be halfway decent.
And better yet If we could drum and sing them too.
hmm.

Glad I hopped on the RB wagon. The only time I play GH3 anymore is to practice on some Dragonforce.

LOL, I know what you mean, but to be fair Gwen did have some decent stuff pre-hollaback girl era

I kind of scoffed until I realized they were all from Tragic Kingdom.
Now I wish it had been released for Rock Band.

Well I'm happy! RockBand hasn't even come out over here yet.
I'd have been happier if "It's my life" was in the track pack though. :o(
Prefferd Ms. Stefani back in the No Doubt days too.

Another group of awesome songs that belong on Rock Band and not GH...
Make these available for Rock Band and you've got a sale...otherwise, keep 'em.

@thecmoneyshow:
It would take a lot more than a patch to make these songs work for Rock Band. They'd have to be entirely redone and relicensed.
