    Rock Band 3 Goes Social, Allows Song Import

    It's music fever once again, and Harmonix have let loose details of new features in the third main installment of Rock Band.

    In addition to the wealth of new features mentioned earlier this year, like the exciting Pro Mode and keyboard support, Rock Band 3 will let fans integrate with their Facebook and Twitter accounts, directly through the game.

    Made a new setlist? Tell your friends by pushing the update through to both social networks once an account has been linked up on the Rock Band website.

    Harmonix also mentioned that DLC for keyboard and pro instruments for existing songs is being considered, but it'll be a lot of work to recreate audio streams for these songs to be compatible with the newer setup.

    Interesting. I really don't think my facebook friends care what songs I played on Rock Band, though.

    But then again, do anybody's facebook friends really care about anything they post?
    If you like fantasy horror fiction, please check out a short story I wrote, called "Hole."

    It's completely free to download. If you enjoy it, please also check out a collection called "Dark Things." This one is $.99, but the first two stories are free.

    Sure, if it's relevant to them a bit of fun or genuinely interesting.
    I have lots of conversations start on facebook.

    But I agree this automated "Yo I just like totally played dis game and got a trophy" type shit is a bit crap.

    Now, when they say there's a song import feature in RB 3 have they even directly mentioned the Wii? I know you can do that on 360 and PS3 but have heard no confirmation of the Wii platform on which Activision (Neversoft in particular) has done a wonderful job (SD card support, DLC, SDHC card support, direct-from-card streamming, etc.)

    Probably not - unless they build some form of Facebook within the game?
