    This DLC plays so much better than Ten, IMO...

    So I can't play my PS3 with these download codes til Thursday? How is that possible, seeing as the point of it was being a special "day of release" deal?

    Ok, I have Xbox360, but no internet connection.....does the Rock Band Version at target actually have the tracks on it, or will I need to get Xbox live or something?

    No Vedd Head. It's just got a code you get once you pop the cd into your computer. I think all you need is an internet connection with your respective system along with Rock Band 1 or 2.

    I just played Gonna See My Friend, Got Some, and The End, and I think this is amazing that I'm playing the album the day it came out! It's definitely too expensive, but I couldn't resist.

    So I bought the disc that had the rockband today, and I can't find my code; I have nothing that tells me my rockband code to download or for my free live show downloads. I have already opened my disk so taking it back to Target won't work.
    They people at Target were no help.
    Any help here would be great.

    I love Backspacer and can't wait for LA 3 & 4.

    it costs me more to buy an "album" on rock bank xbox live than to buy the real CD. What a joke.
    I haven't even bought Ten - refuse to pay $30+ to download some songs for a game. On top of the xbox live yearly fee! :roll:

    Mine was the same way. Pop your cd into your computer, and when the Backspacer thing shows up, click on downloads. It gives you the option for Rock Band or Concerts, and within the Rock Band link lets you choose between Xbox and Ps3. It's pretty easy from there. You basically have to write the code down(it also offers to email it to you), and then go put it in your gaming system. Hope that helps!

    um both the Ten and Backspacer downloads come out to about $18 if you buy the entire albums at the same time, and you don't need to have xbox live gold to download, you just need a silver account which is free...

    I downloaded the entire Backspacer album for Xbox360 on the day of release :!: and played all the songs today...Well, I am in love with the album since 9/11 but this game made me adore the songs even more, still can't believe how fantastic it is!!!

    Thank Pearl Jam for making their 9th masterpiece!!!

    And thank Rock Band for making this unbelievable experience possible for PJ fans!!!

    "If you know everything about Pearl Jam, think again: Backspacer may be the loudest, fastest album the Seattle quintet has ever made, with lots of full-throttle, garage-inspired rock'n'roll"

    Hahahaha.... I guess Vitalogy and VS slipped their mind. :lol:
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

    Never thought I'd live to see the day where Eddie would have the most challenging guitar part in a Rock Band game for an entire Pearl Jam album... but Just Breathe is painful on expert. Most difficult part of the album imo.
