WhenRock Band 2was announced yesterday, Harmonix wasn’t giving any details of the game’s song selection, saying only that the game has “the strongest playlist we’ve ever assembled.” Now, we’ve got a preview of that. Dtoiderpower-glovehas sent in a doozy of a tip from theScoreHero forums, that bastion of die-hard music game fans around the world.
According to the forumites, tonight’s episode of X-Play showed a screenshot from the song selection screen inRock Band 2— you can see it for yourself above. It shows the cross-game DLC compatibility that Harmonix promised: note that the last two songs, Boston’s “More Than A Feeling” and “All The Small Things” by Blink-182, were made available as DLC forRock Band.
Here are the other nine tracks, and their presumed artists:
Here’s some more in-depth analysis of the screenshot. Note the “2” to the left of the first nine tracks, and the different circular icon next to the two songs fromRock Band— it’s the arrow that signifies DLC, so that’s how they’re differentiating between songs on theRock Band 2game disc and downloaded tracks.
Either way, that purported tracklist has me in a tizzy. I want this game NOW.
Also, JOURNEEEEEEEY!

[Update:The ever-so-gracious power-glove has provided us with a significantly improved image. It confirms that the icons next to the Boston and Blink-182 songs are the old download arrow icons; the post has been updated to reflect this.]
