Dream Theater to appear in Rock Band 2

Posted by Dan on Jul 15, 2008 @ 9:12 AM

I was just looking over the song list announced for Rock Band 2 and the inclusion of Dream Theater really caught my eye. While I would have picked a song different from Panic Attack, I'm giddy to see Dream Theater show up in a game like this.

Some other song that caught my eye were:

  • AC/DC - Let There Be Rock
  • Alice in Chains - Man in the Box
  • Billy Idol - White Wedding Pt. I
  • Foo Fighters - Everlong
  • Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son
  • Megadeth - Peace Sells
  • Metallica - Battery
  • Ratt - Round & Round
  • Rush - The Trees

For a complete song list, see Gizmodo's coverage of Rock Band 2.

    Dream Theater always appears in Unreal Tournament III and Quake 4 when I'm playing deathmatch. I keep my playlist going in the background while playing a match. Helps get me further into the game :)

    'Pull Me Under' is confirmed for Guitar Hero 4 - coming out in October I believe.

    @Wayde:

    Very cool. Glad to see DT popping up in these games--it should only help their exposure to a broader (and probably younger) demographic. I can't even count the number of times I've listened to Images & Words. Easily my most listened to album of all time.

    Will i have to "Purchase" this dream theater song or does it appear in the game throughout Tour Mode after beating a certain venue?
