Holy crap this looks like such a mélange haha. I'm very interested though; I could see myself picking this up depending on how it develops between now and "summer". If they provide a track-your-own-songs option...omg.

EDIT: wait never mind Foster The People / Pumped Up Kicks is in this I don't want it anymore

You're going to give up the opportunity of playing over 3000 songs in this game because one song you dislike is in it?

"Cream of the crop"
"Rock Band Blitz is expected to be an arcade style game where the emphasis will be on quick and fun gameplay that will utilize the regular gaming controllers of your Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3."

Interesting move...tribute to the Amplitude and Frequency days I guess?

"Expected to launch in the summer, Rock Band Blitz will be compatible with all Rock Band tracks and will ship with 25 new backwards-compatible tracks"

Well that sounds like a bummer, but perhaps the number will increase as we learn more. If it remains that small it kinda sounds like a wonky DLC more than a full-on game...bit of a disappointment given that it's been over a year since RB3. But we shall see.

Backwards-compatibility was just so people wouldn't complain about not being able to play TTFAF on it. That will be fun.

Technically Rock Band Unplugged was a tribute to Amplitude in a way seeing that the gameplay for that title was very reminiscent of Amplitude/Frequency, this however looks to be like an Xbox Arcade/PSN transplant of Rock Band Unplugged gameplay, but with more backwards compatibility with the console games than the portable versions.

But who cares it looks fun Smile

MORE SOUNDTRACK DETAILS & NEW POWER-UPS REVEALED FOR ROCK BAND BLITZ!

Cambridge, Mass. – May 29th, 2012 – Today Harmonix has announced 11 additional tracks and more exciting Power-up details for Rock Band™ Blitz, the all-new downloadable title coming to Xbox LIVE® Arcade and PlayStation®Network that brings the excitement of a full band experience into your hand! Designed for use with a standard controller, Rock Band Blitz is beat-match gameplay evolved… fast paced, over the top and no instrument peripherals required!

Rock Band Blitz will support the biggest music library in gaming, fully compatible with hundreds of songs already available in the Rock Band Music Store, as well as tracks exported from Rock Band, Rock Band 2, and more! Additionally, Rock Band Blitz will ship with more than 20 songs from music’s biggest artists, include the following songs that have just been announced:

• The All-American Rejects – “Kids in the Street”
• Barenaked Ladies – “One Week”
• Collective Soul – “Shine”
• Elton John – “I’m Still Standing”
• Fall Out Boy – “A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More ‘Touch Me’”
• Great White – “Once Bitten Twice Shy”
• Iron Maiden – “The Wicker Man”
• Living Colour – “Cult of Personality”
• P!nk – “Raise Your Glass”
• Shinedown – “Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay Boom-Lay Boom)”
• Tears for Fears – “Shout”

More songs will be revealed this summer, so stay tuned! For a full list of songs revealed so far, including music from Blink-182, Foster the People, and more, head to http://www.rockband.com/games/rockbandblitz!

Players will rock out to their favorite tracks while fighting to outscore their friends in Rock Band Blitz! The key to making scores soar are Rock Band Blitz’s over-the-top Power-ups, which players equip before launching into their favorite tracks. Topping the leaderboards is all about strategically selecting Power-up loadouts that best suit personal player styles and deploying these score boosters at the perfect time in each song.

There are over 15 Power-ups for players to unlock across three different categories, including the following that have just been revealed today:

Overdrive Power-ups: Play glowing notes to earn Energy, then deploy insane Overdrive Power-ups, including…

• Shockwave: Sends a sonic wave that earns you bonus points for every note it touches! The more Energy you’ve stored, the larger the Shockwave!
• Point Doubler: Earns two times the points for every note played!
• Jackpot: Launch Jackpot to start a run that will earn you three times the points if you can play a section of notes perfectly. Be careful – miss a note and you lose it all!

Note Power-ups: Equip Note Power-ups to randomly scatter glowing purple notes throughout a song. Hit those notes for some wild, point-boosting effects, like…

• Flame note: Hit this note to start a fire. Follow the spreading blaze to earn bonus points!
• Runaway Note: Trigger this type of note to send a spark down the track. Chase that runaway note down and get the big points.
• Synchrony: For the rhythm junkie, Synchrony allows you to switch tracks on the downbeat for bonus points. Switching at the measure markers also plays notes on both tracks!

Rock Band Blitz is scheduled for release on Xbox LIVE Arcade and PlayStation®Network this summer. For the latest assets, including screenshots and the game logo, please visit http://www.rockband.com/press/blitz.

...blegh, only one of their songs was good and that was Welcome To The Black Parade, I don't have it in me to listen to their other songs anymore.

Ah, all right. To be honest, I like their music in general. Old or not, they still make great music, but that's just my opinion.

The song was in the top 30 when it was released, peaking at number 1, so I find it hard that the song could suck.

Top40 = Popular
Popular != Good

Point is, I've never liked MCR, rather their emo label is justified or not...it leans in that direction, one I stay far the fuck away from.
