Well, if MTV Games Senior VP Paul DeGooyer had his way, some album purchases in the future would be bundled with Rock Band DLC.  Similar to how Pearl Jam’s “Backspacer” special edition album sold exclusively at Target last year, music artists could option to have a normal album, as well as a premium bundle that would contain the album’s tracks capable of being played in Rock Band.

“We would love to see a world where in your premium bundle for the next Muse album, you’re able to also receive that album on your console of choice, and be able to play it,” he said, speaking at MIDEM’s Images & Brands summit this morning.

Oh, and not sure if you caught that or not, but he name dropped Muse.  That ought to be make some people in the community especially happy.  (In other words, don’t be surprised if there’s some Muse coming to Rock Band soon!)

I love this.  If the Old Navy bundle deals turn out to be just rumors, then there’s always this deal.  Most of you reading this blog probably already have Rock Band, but may not have the Rock Band 2 instruments.  If you’re looking to replace some older instruments, put this on your Christmas list!  Starting now and through the rest of this year, select retailers (see below) will be selling the Rock Band 2 Special Edition bundle for the Xbox 360 and PS3 for only $99.  This includes the Rock Band 2 guitar (wireless), drums (wireless), microphone, and game.  And if you are looking for a good gift for a good friend… pick this up for them! That way you don’t have to bring your instruments over to their place any more!

You’ve got Beatles in my Pepsi! When I logged into my Pepsi Rock Band account today to bank a few points, I noticed a new weekly prize, apparently coming September 1st.  It appears that full limited edition bundles of The Beatles: Rock Band will be given away as prizes starting on September 1st.  I’ve already got mine pre-ordered, but if you’ve opted to get the game only, here’s your chance to start drink some Pepsi and try and get yourself a full bundle!  Good luck!

UPDATE:

As HarmonixSean pointed out, the prizes page lists more details… specifically that Pepsi is giving away 200 bundles a week (albeit only for 2 weeks before the promotion ends).  That’s a LOT of bundles… start saving up your codes now!!!
