It looks like Harmonix is as busy as a beaver trying to capitalize off of retail discs. There seems to be another disc (not the AC/DC one) waiting to be released this year and it is called Rock Band Track Pack 2. Wait you say, when did I purchase the first Rock Band Track Pack? Well, if you are a Xbox 360 owner you never have. The first track pack disk was released solely on the PS2 and Wii.
Now on to the details. According to xbox360achievements.org the retail release date is said to be November 18th at the price of $29.99. At this time, there isn’t an official track listing but the achievements give some of them away. Speaking of achievements, there will be 12 of them totalling 250 points. The previous track pack disk contained 20 songs, so the price seems a little steep for people who might already own some of the songs included on the disk. If you don’t already own any of the songs and achievements have some monetary value to you, it might be worth a purchase, you do the math.
Not sure I agree with this from Harmonix. Giving achievements for people who buy the DLC on the disc only? What about people who purchased all the DLC when it was originally released? Do they get the shaft and not the ability to unlock and additional 250 gamerscore points?
My best guess is yes, they get the shaft. It’s always about the money but I hope I am wrong.
