As bizarre as it may sound, an Age of Conan press release stated that Rock Band 2 will have at least one song from the Scandinavian rockers – Turbonegro. Now before you start fantasizing about an ‘Age of Rock Band’ or ‘Conan Rock Warrior’ or something on those lines, let me tell you that FunCom is in no way linked to the Rock Band franchise (although that would have an interesting outcome). The way this revelation came about, is that in an effort to pimp out Turbonegro (since the band’s songs appear in the first Age of Conan soundtrack release), FunCom introduced them as the guys who made an appearance on several TV shows, “as well as the game Rock Band II.”
Although it’s pretty much a given that Rock Band II would eventually be released (since the original was so successful and all), I’m sure neither studio owner MTV games nor EA are too thrilled about the way this revelation came about. Oh well, if it makes you feel better we can pretend to be surprised when you unveil the game officially, EA. Bad jokes apart, I can’t wait to hear more about the game, and hope it reaches Indian shores unlike the original Rock Band!
