Rock Band 2 will come out this year for the Xbox 360 in September, with other platforms—the PS3 and Wii—getting in on the fun later in the year. What that means, exactly? Your guess is as good as mine.
But let’s focus: Rock Band 2 is coming. You’ll be able to use all of your Rock Band 1 accessories in the sequel, but new versions will be released alongside the game. You’ll also be able to use all your downloaded songs (DLC) in the sequel, which is awfully magnanimous of publisher MTV Games.
Another secret: I never played Rock Band.
