Harmonix, famous for being at the forefront of music-based games, has collaborated with MTV Games, a division of MTV Networks, partnering with Electronic Arts, has just unveiled plans to release Rock Band Track Pack Volume 1 for the Nintendo Wii console as well as the aging PS2. This pack will feature up to 20 tracks of electrifying classic hits as well as current favorites, of among the artists include Boston, Nine Inch Nails, Stone Temple Pilots, and All American Rejects. These 20 tracks all use original master recordings, so you can be sure that the audio quality is definitely top notch.
