    We have Rock Band 2 for the Wii and bought this ‘Track Pack’ thinking that it would be able to add to the songs available in Rock Band 2. That is certainly what the package suggests. Though it does say that Rock Band 2 is not required to use it, what it does not tell you is that IT DOES NOT WORK WITH ROCK BAND or ROCK BAND 2. It is a separate, stand-alone game.

    So, if you play the songs here, you do not use your band from Rock Band 2. None of the songs can be added to Rock Band 2. If you want to use any of the songs on this disk with Rock Band 2, you must repurchase them online.

    Very disappointing.

    Of course the game itself is probably fine, if you don’t have RB or RB2. But why would I not want these tunes in with the more full-featured RB2?

    A good alternative to having Downloadable Content (DLC) on the Wii. This track pack gives you the opportunity to own 20 of the songs that the other consoles can purchase individually. This game does NOT require you to own any other version of Rock Band, it is a stand-alone. So in that aspect it could be viewed as a large demo.

    The song listing in my opinion is just OK, but that is all about your own personal taste. The songs are all master recordings. Stone Roses – “Love Spreads” is my favorite song by far and I had never heard that song before this game. If you are an “expert” plastic guitar player, this track pack will not bring too much challenge. For the easy-hard players, this is a good opportunity to have some fun rocking out and even move up a notch in difficulty. $30 for 20 songs isn’t too bad of a price considering you could spend $40 if you had to download them all separately, and this track pack doesn’t require you to own the full game.

    Bottom Line: If you like the songs on this list, it’s a must buy. (Plastic music peripheral sold separately.)

    This was a gift for my brother-in-law, who is really into classic rock. He loved it! Good variety, good songs.

    As others have already stated, this track pack could use more songs. Having said that, I will say that the song selection is pretty good though. I love the fact that they put “Closer to the Heart” by Rush on this – one of my favorite Rush songs. Two thumbs up.

    To clarify, just in case there is still some confusion out there about compatibility, this track pack (for the Wii) IS compatible with the Wii Band Hero instruments. I was a little nervous to buy this game because the first Rock Band is not supposed to be compatible with the Band Hero instruments, but Rock Band 2 is compatible, so I wasn’t sure where the track packs fit into the picture. But, my guitar and drums work perfectly – no problems. I can’t say whether this will work with the Guitar Hero World Tour instruments, but my guess would be that it does not. The Wii has the least compatibility between Rock Band and Guitar Hero out of the gaming consoles.

    This is much like the other “Rock Band” games. More good old songs executed nicely.
