Limelight to be available for Rock Band via download

Wed, Jan 2, 2008@1:38PM | comments removed/disabled

The Rock Band video game from Harmonix Music Systems released late last year to much fanfare. The game built on the success of its Guitar Hero predecessors, adding vocals and drums to the mix thus allowing players to create a virtual rock band. While the Guitar Hero 2 game included Rush's YYZ, Rock Band includes the Rush classic Tom Sawyer along with dozens of other rock songs from the 60s on up through the present day. Harmonix has promised to release new songs for the game on a weekly basis and just announced that Rush's Limelight will be available for download this week. Like the Tom Sawyer song included with the game, it will unfortunately be a cover version and not the original. The song is expected to hit the PlayStation Network sometime tomorrow. Thanks to showdonttell25 for the heads up.
