Activision recently sent notice that contained the schedule for all of the Guitar Hero World Tour downloadable content for December. We reported all the dates and artists, and added them to the Events Calendar so you couldn’t forget, but sometimes it’s just nice to have a reminder isn’t it? Well, today you are reminded that the Eagles DLC is available! Good stuff too!
Also, for you Xbox Live users, if you haven’t tried this handy new feature, you may want to check it out. If you’re away from your console but on the internet (say, at your job!), you can head to the Xbox Marketplace which allows you to make your DLC purchases online and adds them to your download queue. So, next time you turn the console on, the download starts! Nice feature huh? (Click here to add the Eagles pack or any of the singles to your Xbox Queue)

Poor Wii owners. Somehow they are always treated like the red-headed step children of the console wars. Apparently you won’t be getting the jimi Hendrix downloadable content that the rest of us can choose. According to an Activision PR rep:
Due to technical or licensing restrictions, the DLC offerings will not be the same for every console platform. For example, certain artists prefer to keep the integrity of the track pack rather than releasing singles and the Wii’s infrastructure only allows us the ability to release single songs as DLC.
Apparently the Wii platform can’t handle packs and the late Jimi Hendrix really prefers you have ALL of the songs or forget it! Well at least you guys get the consolation of Wii Music. Oh wait…
According to an Activision press release and Wired.com, apparently both Rock Band and Guitar Hero World Tour will have new downloadable content from the Killers on November 25th, the same day their 3rd album “Day and Age” hits stores.
Wired.com reports that three Killers songs will arrive in Rock Band: “Mr. Brightside,” Smile Like You Mean It” and “Spaceman,” with the final song coming from their new disc.
Activision’s announcement has three songs as well, but with two of the three coming from the new album plus the hit single “Mr. Brightside”. The new songs will be “Human” and “Losing Touch”.
Check out DLC Central for updates and previews.
