Wow, gamers are really shallow. They complain about not getting much stuff from the "Big 3" conferences, then totally ignore the third-party conferences. The EA conference just ended, and there was info on some new Wii games and Rock Band...but apparently no one on GameFAQs cared 'cause it's "EA" and all they have is Madden or something stupid like that.

Well, now I know that with Rock Band "Every week, they will release a new batch of music online. And within the first year, they say they will have hundreds of songs online."

And...

Announcing songs available on Rock Band: The Who - Won't Get Fooled again, Mountain - Mississippi Queen, David Bowie - Suffragette City, Black Sabbath - Paranoid, Ramones - Rockaway Beach, Rush - Tom Sawyer, Bon Jovi - Wanted Dead or Alive, Nirvana - In Bloom, Stone Temple Pilots - Vasoline, Weezer - Say it Ain't So, Foo Fighters - Learn to Fly, The Hives - Main Offender, Strokes - Reptilia, Queens of the Stone Age - Go with the Flow.

Also...

Chen: Rock Band will even offer albums, IN THEIR ENTIRETY, onto the platform. The first? The Who - Who's next.

And finally...

Also a bunch of Metallica songs. They plan to go "very deep" with select bands. And will have much more to announce soon.

But no one knows this yet 'cause they don't remember that Rock Band is an EA-published game.
