The PlayStation 2 and Wii versions were released at later dates. Naturally, Rock Band 2 features full band gameplay similar to that of its predecessor, allowing up to four players of different instruments to play together as a band. Rock Band 2 shipped with the largest on-disc setlist for a Rock Band or game yet, featuring 84 songs, all of which were master recordings. Some notable inclusions on the set list include AC/DC's first song in a rhythm game with 'Let There Be Rock' and Guns N' Roses 'Shackler's Revenge,' off their newest album Chinese Democracy. Purchasing the disc also grants buyers a voucher that allows them to download twenty free songs, with no additional charge. Gameplay Basic gameplay remains the same as the original Rock Band title; players play solo or as a band in order to complete songs and get high scores by hitting notes and singing in pitch to the tune of rock songs of all years and genres. Rock Band 2, however, features many tweaks to the gameplay modes.

Quickplay Either as solo or a group, Quickplay allows players to play songs with ease by simply selecting songs to play off of the list of all songs that have been unlocked. Rock Band 2, however, features a way of creating a setlist of many songs to play in order without having to stop to select a new song after completing another, which allows for a quick transition from song to song.

Quickplay can be played with players locally on the same console, online with players across the console's mutliplayer service, or a combination of both. Band World Tour Contrary to Rock Band, the Band World Tour mode acts as both the single and mutliplayer career-like mode.

Milestone Xprotect Cannot Retrieve Serial Number more. Rock Band 2 no longer offers a single player mode that simply progresses the player through each difficulty of songs down the list. Instead, Band World Tour Create a band and rock the world. Can now be played with any combination of instruments, including a single person. The need for a band leader has also been eliminated, so any player can jump in at any time and play.

The core of Band World Tour has remained in tact: players form their own fictional rock band, name it, choose a hometown from a small selection, and progress from city to city around the world as they unlock new venues. Setlists start with simpler songs, but eventually grow into long, difficult sets as the band reaches its final stages of success. Setlists also feature downloadble content, as opposed to only on-disc songs. Throughout their career, players will unlock new cities by earning new methods of transportation, staff members that help them earn more money and fans, and new instruments, clothing, and accessories for their characters that they buy with the money.

Band World Tour mode is also able to be played online now, allowing for the creation of online bands, and players are also able to assign the premade characters or their own to fill in the empty spots in a band if there are not four people playing. Tour Challenges Another new feature of Band World Tour mode are Tour Challenges, premade setlists that have an underlying theme, such as songs from a specific decade, that players can complete to earn achievements, songs, or other unlocks for their characters. Efw2 File Format 2011 Dodge. Battle of the Bands The last new sub-mode of Band World Tour is the Battle of the Bands, which lets players compete in weekly challenges that compare their scores to others'. The challenges range from a variety of goals, such as obtaining a long streak to simply getting the highest score on the board, and also have certain requirements, like being required to have a vocalist or play on a certain difficulty. Each battle has a leaderboard that compares your score to other player's.

Battles can include downloadable content, and are often ideas contributed by the players of the Rock Band community. New Features Drum Trainer Rock Band 2 offers a mode in which players can attempt to teach those having trouble keeping time on the drums with a new drum trainer. It has a series of different drum beats ranging from basic patterns to more challenging rhythms, of which players can choose to play on different speeds to increase their skills, as well as a variety of common drum fill patterns. It also contains a freeplay mode, in which players can simply play whatever they want, or even play along with songs from an MP3 player or on their system's harddrive. To get the full effect of playing on a real kit, the cymbal expansions are ideal. All three modes also allow players to choose between a small variety of drum kits to 'play on', including the standard Rock Band (1 or 2) kits, electronic, etc.

No Fail Mode To help make the game more accessible to everyone, No Fail Mode can be turned on so that players cannot fail out of a song if they are performing poorly. This can make the experience more enjoyable for inexperienced players, or for anyone who just wants to play through a tough song without having to be limited to playing it in practice mode. Breakneck Speed The Hyperspeed Mode from the Guitar Hero games is back. You can double the scrollspeed of the fretboard for all the instruments, excluding vocals. This makes the notes more spaced out as they come at you, however as a result you cannot see as many notes at a time as you could without Breakneck turned on; it's all a matter of preference. Instruments Guitar Let there be guitar.there was guitar.

Like its predecessor, Rock Band 2 will be available in a bundle featuring all new instrument peripherals. The new Fender Stratocaster guitar, while functioning nearly the same, has a number of improvements from the last and features a new sunburst finish.

This new Strat improves on the original Rock Band guitar by having a more reliable strum bar, quieter and more responsive buttons, and a new calibration system that allows you to calibrate the audio/visual lag directly from the guitar. The guitar once again features an effects switch with five effects and the high neck solo buttons.

All versions of the guitar are wireless. Drums Let there be drums.there was drums! The new drum kit is improved in terms of functionality by offering more responsive pads with better rebound. The pads are also quieter and velocity sensitive, meaning the volume of the notes will be determined by how hard you hit the pads. The kit also includes a new kick pedal that will be reinforced with metal plating, offering a far more reliable and longer lasting pedal. Additionally, the kick pedal can now be attached to the bottom of the drum set so that it doesn't drop when the set is lifted. Expansion plugs are also located on the back of the kit which allow you to plug in optional cymbal additions (sold separately).

These cymbals can be used to play yellow, blue, and green notes, allowing up to three cymbals on a drum kit. While there is no visual indication of when a cymbal is being played as opposed to a tom or snare, players can enhance their musical experience by using their own judgment to correctly play both on the cymbals and pads. With all three colored cymbals plugged in, the yellow, blue, and green pads will act as toms during freestyle fills, and the cymbals will all act as cymbals (yellow high hat, blue ride, and green crash - players, however, can still use the green pad to hit the fill-ending crash cymbal to activate overdrive).

Like the guitar, the drum kit wirelessly connects to the console. Ion Drums Ion Drum Set Ion Audio has also developed a premium drum kit that can function both as a Rock Band peripheral and an actual electronic drum kit by purchase of a electronic drum module, or 'drum brain.' The Ion kit, like Rock Band's sports four pads and a bass pedal, as well as two cymbals, with the option of a third. Microphone The mic offered for Rock Band 2 is the same as its predecessor aesthetically wise, however included an upgraded phoneme detector that increases the accuracy of the atonal 'talkie' bits of a song's vocal part. Additionally, any microphone can be used.

Compatibility All Rock Band instruments are compatible with Rock Band 2, and vice versa. Additionally, for the Xbox 360 and PS3, all other instrument peripherals from games such as Guitar Hero World Tour and Rock Revolution are compatible as well.

This is not the case on the Wii due to technical differences. The and microphones are compatible on the Xbox 360 via a title update released on September 25, 2009. Setlist All 84 on-disc songs in Rock Band 2 are master recordings. Additionally, 55 songs may be imported from the original setlist after downloading a $5 export key from either the PlayStation Store or the Xbox Live Marketplace. You may also export the 45 songs from to Rock Band 2 for $10. The exporting feature does not work for the Wii. Let there be rock!
