Rock Band is quite an important title, whose popularity has been growing ever since it has been launched. Its official site was also pretty important, as it helped all the players with pieces of advice, information about the upcoming DLC (Downloadable Content Packs) and news about the game. Recently, a new version has been launched with revamped graphics and support to offer players an even better browsing experience.

The new site is Flash heavy which means that it might take a while to load for the visitors who don't have a really fast Internet connection, but in the end it's very much worth it. It now has streaming videos that showcase the game and its features, and some very interesting options have been added to all the sections found in the original site.

We can find out new information about the two games, Rock Band and its sequel, and about the origins of the special costumes that can be unlocked throughout the game, including sketches and stories about these items. 

Also, to capitalize on the great deal of character customization in the Rock Band 2 game, Harmonix, the developer of the title, is now offering you the possibility to create real life six-inch statues of these characters. Therefore, you can have your in-game rocker portrayed as a figurine, or you can have your band printed on T-Shirts or other types of merchandise.

You will be able to stay up to date with everything Rock Band-related via the new blog, which offers information from all categories, from DLC to upcoming merchandise regarding the titles. All in all, it's quite an improvement over the old site and it's really going to help all the players out there. You can check it out here.
