Worried that Rock Band 2 for Wii will be the same scaled-back experience of the original Rock Band? It ain't so.
While we didn't get into nitty-gritty details, I was assured by representatives of Harmonix at E3 this year that the Wii version of Rock Band 2 will be a much more competitive product.
It was understood that this extended to things like downloadable content and online play. While I can't be sure that Rock Band 2 for Wii will have absolutely everything that its next-gen counterparts are packing onto the disc, it's certainly not going to be as disappointing, feature-wise, as the Wii version of the original.
I was under the impression that this was well-known by this point, but apparently not, as the comments section of our recent Rock Band 2 article is filled with people doubting that the game will have downloadable songs. Hope this lifts everyone's spirits.
