While I love the song, I am worried about how well "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" will work. The song is basically just Billie Joe Armstrong playing a guitar and singing. There are no drums or bass, so the song really just works for two people.

There are already songs like that available as DLC for Rock Band. Not quite totally without one of the instruments, but almost.

Seeing this list just emphasizes to me that Green Day is far too minor of a band to have a whole game dedicated to them.  Obviously Green Day is a major band but to me, prior to American Idiot they were a band with a huge breakthrough album and a smattering of decent hits since.  Since American Idiot they're a band with two huge albums and a smattering of decent hits.  I see bands somewhat in terms of how many discs a good comp of their's would be.  Green Day is a one discer.  It's a great one disc - but that's it.

And here they're folowing up The Beatles!  The biggest act of all time!  A band where damn near EVERY song is considered essential.  In terms of comps I have the Red and Blue albums.  That's 4 LPs worth of material and there are obvious omissions.  And at the same time nothing on those albums should have been left off.  The Beatles: Rock Band is, in my mind, MISSING important Beatles songs.  That's how big that band is.  This is missing nothing.  If anything it has some outright filler.

These individual artist focused music games should be saved for the absolute biggest of the big.  It should be for bands like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd or The Rolling Stones.

I would buy Rolling Stones Rock Band even if it required me to buy a whole new set of instruments. As for Green Day Rock Band, I recently bought Guitar Hero Aerosmith because I found it for $3; I'm not sure I'd buy this at that price.

HAA HA HA!!

I laugh at you all, FINALLY it pays off! Green Day was the band that interested me into Alternative Rock in the first place, HA HA!

My favorite band of all time is getting the treatment it deserves. I'm going to play Dookie till my hands cramp!

Rolling Stone, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, THE BEATLES...HAA HA HA, Curse you and your good taste in music, see where it has gotten you? Now watch me as I run to the store and spend my hard earned money on playing one album and a few "good" songs  that I already air gutar to  while you wait for a more worthy purchase.. HA..ha..ahem..wait??..??

Or one :P I often do guitar and vocals because it adds a little more challenge to what can become stale gameplay.

I like you.  I hope you stick around.

$49.99 US?

Aaaaaaaaaand I'm out.

I can't believe they're charging full price for this - yes, there are 47 songs, but most of Green Day's songs are under 3 minutes. They should have just put *every* Green Day song on there (they easily could), and then I would still not buy it.

I am officially STUCK. TY

I really could have just handled Dookie and Jaded/Brain Stew.

I would bet they'd have made more money if they just released all the songs as DLC. I know I'd probably buy at least three or four of those songs as DLC, but there's absolutely no way I'll pay $50 or anywhere close to it for the disc, and I know I'm not alone in that.

I know, right!? I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that after reading that post..

Nice.. we'll see how long that last :P

Yay Dookie! :D  Playing Longview is going to be sweet.
