Portal's "Stay Alive" to hit Rock Band this month

Posted on March 31st, 2008 at 14:38 EDT

For those big time Portal fans out there the end song from the game called, "Stay Alive," will be hitting the PlayStation Network on April 17.  A song created by Jonathan Coulton, has quickly turned into a sensational piece after followers of the game Portal heard it while watching the end credits.

This download is going to be 100% free of charge and is considered as a big "THANK YOU" from the team at Harmonix for continually supporting their title.  The reason for the huge delay of release stems from the PlayStation Store redesign that is taking place this month.  Had it not been for that, we'd be seeing the release this Thursday, still, getting a free download is always great.

Rock Band now features over 120 playable songs in its library, only if you've chosen to download all of the songs available.  With Rock Band's success continuing to grow, we'll keep you updated every week with the new songs planned for release.

I heard this song once, and I wasn't really amazed.. meh, maybe it was because it was to a lame music video I just got bored... But, yeah, when Rock Band gets out here in EU I will probably download it nonetheless :)

I waited on Rock Band, waned to see how it played out in the long run. So far looks great, if MGS4 and GTA4 dont take up all my time i might just pick it up. On a side note its nice to see Sony doing the things they say...like with the store..they had me woried for abit...just abit though ^^

haha yes!!! Am I the only one is extremely excited. Whoo!!!!

I know I'm going a little overboard but I would buy the Orange Box again just for the laughs I got at the end of Portal.

By the way, the song is "Still Alive", not "stay alive". haha

Yes the Song is called "STILL ALIVE", Stay Alive was a crappy movieabout a killer videogame. I'm suprised more of you havent spoken up to correct that yet as much as you claim to like it. Dosent PSU have Editors? Anyway the song is campy fun with a catchy tune I'm glad to have it and even more glad that it's not something they're charging for.

 

As for Dragon Force being in Rockband HMX has supposedly said they're not the type of band they want to add so we shouldn't ever expect to see them on the game, but frankly I doubt the instruments can even handle most of their songs. You;d need a double base pedal and a much looser strumbar than the one on the Strat.

Well, since I haven't had the pleasure of spending $60 on Orange Box just to play Portal, I have yet to hear this song.

And shame on you Dave.  You're usually on top of fixing your articles.
