What you get here is over an hour and a half of AC/DC at their best and live. The song list is extensive and will please any fan of the band for sure.
-
Unfortunately, you'll finish solo tour mode within a couple of hours, there's no online multiplayer and the original master tracks aren't available.
-
There are some great AC/DC tracks here which would make a fantastic addition to any Rock Band collection, but you'll have to pay a premium to get them, including a lot of songs you're probably not interested in. Unless you're an absolute AC/DC fanatic, you're probably better served waiting to pick this up on sale sometime down the road.

Playstation Official Magazine AustraliaBare-bones stuff, really, but the music makes it worth it. [Mar 2009, p.76]

The AC/DC Live: Rock Band Track Pack is an hour and a half AC/DC experience only for fans of the band.
-
The AC/DC Live: Rock Band Track Pack is a short but sweet experience that leaves you feeling like you didn't get a Whole Lotta Rosie.
-
The biggest strike against AC/DC Live is that it's just too expensive for what you get. It's too bad, because this is a fantastic set of songs. If you can't live without AC/DC, then pick this up now. Otherwise, I'd wait for an eventual price drop. In either case, don't buy AC/DC Live unless you plan import the tracks to Rock Band. It's really not worth a damn as a stand-alone game.

Hardcore fans will appreciate the lineup. There were one or two tracks I missed, and a number more that I didn't know at all, but largely it's a decent greatest hits-type collection.
-
18 new songs and, ...? Sad enough that this is the only innovation the game has to offer. Compared to the price the content is very disappointing.
-
This is a somewhat odd product. There are really excellent songs to be found here, but everything else in the package feels empty and lackluster. Since it's possible to buy a number of AC/DC albums in the Rock Band store already we're having trouble identifying the purpose of this game. Because of this we can only recommend this title for AC/DC fans, if at all.

PSM3 Magazine UKThe band don't appear on stage at all, replaced by a bunch of misfits for each song. [Feb 2009, p.85]

Playstation Official Magazine UKA miserable cash-in...A poorly conceived and clumsily executed waste of time and money. [Mar 2009, p.101]
