Greetings Rocksmith fans!
Ok, this time for real. It’s actually Rage Against The Machine, they are actually coming to Rocksmith 2014.
You may have recalled this post, where we were told Rocksmith was getting a @RATM song, and this one (in April) when Xbox Live cruelly teased us, but this time it’s happening.
@DanAmrich has confirmed it and with Jimi Hendrix coming on December 16th, it appears that Rocksmith has given us five Top 40 Artist Requests in a ROW!
- Foo Fighters
- Bullet For My Valentine
- Bon Jovi
- Rage Against The Machine
- Jimi Hendrix
You already know the songs we want, so let us know what you are hoping to see in the comments below.
RS are pouring out good DLC weekly, which is really stupid IMO. I mean its not bad that they are listening to their fans and their demands but what happens when the next rocksmith comes out? Although I do expect they have been preparing for the next RS in game songs, since they left out big songs in a few packs like: Chop suey, all along the watch tower, some more nirvana probably, even flow, peace sells etc. But my question is what about the next games DLC? if RS is going to splash out all their money on DLC songs now.
Dude, there’s tons of good music out there. They could release 20 songs a week for ten years and barely make a dent. They gotta keep us hungry so we pay premium price. Oh well, it’s a great product, but It just seems like they are missing out on future customers by not releasing enough variety for different people’s tastes and some people will eventually lose interest. People would buy almost every song of the bands they love. Just not enough money in it for them and most of us are broke. Anyway, it Sucks. But we got RATM, so I’m happy for a while! Wish they didn’t mess with our minds when they said Nirvana was coming out before summer and then take a giant dump on us. Maybe they’re going broke, but it seems like this game can’t fail. Maybe they can afford to shit on us. Sorry, got on a rant.
I’m sorry about the harsh words. I just get passionate about this game. It’s more than the best video game ever. When something’s this awesome, you still start to take it for granted after a while. Thanks Rocksmith and Theriffrepeater for keeping us going on this crazy, fun trip through the nether regions of infinity. Peace, out
RS makes a way higher margin on DLC sales than game sales. That’s why they want to release enticing content for us. That being said, there’s no shortage of good music out there. I find it hard to believe they’ll ever run out of 50 or so songs to put into the next game and then the next game. It’ll be alright.
YES!
Shut up and take my money damit!
Good stuff. Let’s hope for no censorship though!
All this happiness is going down hard on tuesday due to censorship. I can’t imagine hits like “killing in the name” without swearing, so we’re probably not getting them (or worse, get radio edited crap). I predict sad faces next week.
I just shout the f word at my screen. Try it.
“Forget you I won’t do what you tell me!” … Unless you tell me not to curse, in which case, consider it done! “Monkey Fighter!! Hngh!!”
-RATM The TV Edit
Freedommm! Yeah right!
Would be nice to see at least one of their lesser played tracks like No Shelter or that song from the Godzilla soundtrack. Ghost of Old Tom Joad would be fun although a bit repetitive (original version, not the remastered one from their cover song album). Zapata’s Blood would be hilariously awesome but I doubt they’ll be veering off the Top 40 path. Heck, after getting fooled the first time a track pack was leaked and subsequently debunked, I’ll take any RATM I can get. Just not Renegades of Funk cuz that song sucks, haha.
Here’s to hoping Santa stuffs a few Xbox cards in my stocking cuz I’m seriously falling behind with all this kick ass shit they’ve been releasing lately and Hendrix is just around the corner too.
Keep it coming, Ubisoft!
:+1: Keep it coming
AWE YEAAHH!!!
3 weeks plus and still no dlc for psn in the UK god knows when we will finally get hendrix 2015 I bet
Are we getting any more December DLC after Hendrix? I know the team takes time off for the holidays, but I can’t remember if there’s one more week of DLC or if we’re cut off at the 16th.
If there’s one week left, I hope to God Dire Straits fills it. I know we can’t put too much faith into Paul’s tweets, but the way he stated that one made it seem like a sure thing, and I’ve been growing anxious over the last few weeks while foolishly assuming they’re coming because he said so a few months ago (again, I know it isn’t guaranteed especially so far ahead of time).
I’ll gladly take some RATM, but I’ll be sitting on pins and needles until the next DLC pack after Hendrix gets teased. There are plenty of bands I won’t mind seeing announced, but none I was so convinced were coming. I did it to myself, fucking idiot.
Nope. Hendrix is the last DLC of 2014
Unfortunately, per Dan, Dire Straits won’t be adding to the DLC fun any time soon… This is his post on the Ubi Forums–
“BTW, we have approached Dire Straits (and hundreds of other artists) and we do not currently have their permission to include them in the game. Same goes for Metallica, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, and pretty much every other very popular or influential rock band you can think of.”
I’m devastated. Mark Knopfler is one of my favorite lyrical guitarists and I was so excited with Paul’s tweet saying they’d be part of the party. Hopefully there is some movement, soon.
Ashes In The Fall would be amazing, even if only to have the authentic tone to Session with
Six Pack!
And really glad I put that detuner on my bass
Hoping for kick out the jams don’t think it’s likely don’t matter buying it anyway
Never heard of them.
Are you fucking kidding me?
You have been baited by the Master
You have been mastered by Darth Baiter.
As have I.
And me.
By me.
Not
I find that very hard to believe
Actually, I really never have heard of them until I started playing RS1 and heard people begging for them. I’ll try them out.
I hope :
Killing in the name
bulls of parade
Freedom
testifi
Sleepyn in the fire
I’m very happy =D
totally happy, can’t wait, REALLY hoping it’s a 5 and not a 3 pack! But even a 3 pack will be great. 🙂
SIX pack!!! Yes!!! 🙂
Six? Awesome!!!
If it doesn’t include Renegades of Funk, I’ll pass out of protest – lol
Might be a little trickier to get rights to that one, since it’s not actually written by RATM
Good call…renegades of funk.
*Faints in excitement.*
I’m going to predict Guerrilla Radio, Killing in the Name, and Bulls on Parade for sure, with some combination of Bombtrack, Wake Up, Know Your Enemy, Testify, and Sleep Now in the Fire, and Down Rodeo as the other 2, with at least one being new to music games (Wake Up and Bombtrack would be my preferences I guess)..
Guerrila Radio
Killing in the name
Bombtrack
Bullet in the Head
Know Your Enemy
Wake Up
maybe Six pack ! lol 😉
I quit Guerrila radio.
I’m going for the all AORB prediction:
Killing in the Name
Bombtrack
Bulls on Parade
Testify
Sleep Now in the Fire
Yeah finally 😀
Well Killing In The Name and Bulls on Parade are a must, I’m guessing Bombtrack and Sleep Now On Fire, and for the final song, hum let’s say Take The Power Back cos I wanna slap dat bass
Rocksmith is really delivering with the DLC. I’m really excited about this one! My picks are:
Bulls on Parade
Down Rodeo
Killing in the Name
People of the Sun
Guerrilla Radio
My prediction is that I will buy this pack.
Let’s go with:
Bulls
Killing
Bombtrack
Sleep Now
Testify
(and Maggie’s Farm and Renegades of Funk)
I would like freedom,guerrilla radio, killing in the name, testify and tire me so excited to get this pack. Perfect climate to release since every major American city has protests. Take the power back
