Am I the only one who likes "Dare" better? Seeing Hot Rod's first appearance in that glorious 24 frame per second high quality animation with this song blaring as he ripped through the country side.
@scrapking: Possibly because it's sort of a joke, and people don't like paying for jokes. The song isn't exactly Hendrix's Little Wing. People are fond of it because it's a hilariously cheesy 80's rock song that was the exclamation point to the delightfully simple 80's Transformer movie.
It's such a niche song that if they charged money for it, NO ONE would buy it.
Oh my god. Just watched the Transformers 2 version of The Touch... What the fuck did they do to that song? It's awful... truly awful. The version they had on that Chuck episode sounded even better then the original, sounded like the same vocals but redone instruments, which is all it needed. But good god.... what the fuck man?
@TRT-X: And if it's true that you can also export import all the world-tour disc setlist like one can do with RB1, then this would be a buy for me no questions asked, since i love a lot of the songs form the world tour set list, but navigating to play them on wordld tour is kind of aweful. specially if you are on online multiplayer.
But i have a sinking feeling that THAT was misinterpreted by kotaku since i haven't read it anywhere else. Hopefuly it will be true.
If they would let me export to the HDD the songs on their other compilations (metallica, smash hits, van halen) i would totally buy them instead of renting/skipping them.
@Falsoman: Since I have only rented WT and Metallica...I didn't realize until somebody pointed it out to me that the instruction manuals for both games include a "Unique Owner ID" on the back.
It is entirely possible that at a later date, this code could be used to gain access to content from those two games. I wouldn't bank on it, but it remains a distinct possibility.
Though I am at a loss to explain why Activision would not make this knowledge public as soon as possible. It would likely boost sales of upcoming titles (Smash Hits, Van Halen), and also gain some goodwill from jaded GH fans who are being attracted to the platform concept Harmonix has established.
Awesome. The Transformers: The Movie soundtrack (on tape!) was the first album I ever spent my own money on, and yeah that was primarily because of Stan Bush.
as far as im concerned the guy who wrote that can get throw off a plane with out a parachute, fall to their imminent death. after that get tap danced on with spiked boots, take the body burn the ashes, take the ashes to the nearest oil factory, and have said ashes blown through a fucking dirty exhaust pipe.

It is a Master Track, not a cover, right? I wonder how they swung this as a freebie, rather than paid DLC.

People don't like paying for promotional/joke content.

Yeah it kinda works. Did I say "kinda"? I meant... NO.

And one of those is DLC compatibility. So I would suggest holding onto "The Touch" and perhaps enjoying it more regularily once GH5 hits stores.
