Rock Band II devs going all out with DLC on Wii
Thought the Wii would be getting another gimped version of Rock Band with Rock Band II? Not the case at all. It has been confirmed that not only will all DLC from the PS3/360 versions of the game be available for the Wii, but also, DLC from the first title will be made available. “It may be a tricky one, but EA is out to deliver the biggest offering on Wii thus far, as every song available from 360/PS3 will be included for Wii release, and the game will feature the same store system as well, letting you preview video of the track, look at album art, and download directly from in game. In addition, Rock Band 2 is going to update – for Wii users only – all previous downloadable content from Rock Band 1 and put it in the Wii store as well, so for those out there that wanted the game’s first DLC tracks but could never get them, Rock Band 2 can facilitate.”
However, “Titles from the Rock Band 1 disc, and the Rock Band Track Pack won’t be available, and there’s no way to rip the songs from that game onto Rock Band 2.”
