Europeans will have to wait for Rock Band, but there's a PS2 version thrown into the mix to soften the blow...
As widely expected MTV Games, Harmonix and EA today confirmed that the European rollout of Rock Band has been pushed back into Q1 2008, but confirmed the surprising appearance of a PlayStation2 exclusively for the territory.
Featuring many of the modes found in the Xbox 360 and PlayStation3 versions, the PlayStation2 version will also introduce new elements exclusive to the format. Additionally, European versions of Rock Band will feature extensively localised content for multiple territories, both on-disc and via download.
MTV Games also used Leipzig to reveal a further 10 new tracks, bringing the total on-disc to 26. The new songs, all original master recordings, are as follows:
Rolling Stones "Gimme Shelter,"
Deep Purple "Highway Star,"
The Clash "Should I Stay or Should I Go,"
Faith No More "Epic,"
Smashing Pumpkins "Cherub Rock,"
Radiohead "Creep,"
Beastie Boys "Sabotage,"
Jet "Are You Gonna Be My Girl,"
OK Go "Here It Goes Again,"
Nine Inch Nails "The Hand That Feeds."
"The European continent's rich and diverse musical pedigree transcends culture and language, which is why we are extremely pleased to announce Rock Band in Europe for early 2008," stated Jeff Yapp, EVP, MTV Program Enterprises. "It was imperative that we have significant on-disc and downloadable localized music content for multiple European territories on the PlayStation 2 system, Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3 system in order for Europeans to truly get the full Rock Band experience and interact with the music they love."
