RB3 | experience it all.

To make a short story even shorter… Last week RockBandAide leaked a partial setlist from the upcoming Harmonix music game Rock Band 3. This week at Gamescom in Germany, three Harmonix developers set up a camera and dispelled all rumors surrounding the “official” setlist. During this brief video (which is embedded after the break), the developers revealed the entire 83-track setlist in a tongue-in-cheek manner; while two devs told viewers not to believe the misinformed rumors posted online, the other dev nonchalantly scrolled through the entire setlist while the camera was rolling! Avenged Sevenfold, The Bronx, Bob Marley, David Bowie, Deep Purple, Devo, Elton John, Foreigner, INXS, John Lennon, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ozzy Osbourne, The Police, Queen, Steve Miller Band, War, The Who, Yes. The setlist is pretty phenomenal, so make sure you peek past the break to check it out. Thanks to disc export and DLC support, the game will have access to a library of over 2,000 songs! Rock Band 3 releases October 26, 2010 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Nintendo Wii.

Are you ready to rock!? Well don’t get too excited since we’re still a few months away from the next iteration of Rock Band. MTV Games and Harmonix announced that RB3 hits stores October 26. The game will ship for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, and DS. Pricing details were previously reported. Besides the all-important release date, a bunch of enticing preorder options were detailed, too. If you preorder the game at Walmart you will get a $10 eGift card. Those who shop early at Amazon will receive access to an exclusive in-game guitar plus $10 off a future videogame purchase (the latter offer applies only to Xbox 360 & PS3 RB3 preorders). And last there’s the GameStop special: three free downloadable songs (“My Own Summer” by The Deftones, “Blue Monday” by New Order, and “Burning Down the House” by Talking Heads). I don’t have to tell you which option is best to choose. Look after the break for the official PR.
