Recently, it was announced that German bands, Tokio Hotel and Rammstein were on the musical line up for the Rock Band 3 game. Each band will contribute a song; Tokio Hotel's "Humanoid" will provide some of the musical tone for the game as will Rammstein's "Du hast". Fans of the game and of Tokio Hotel and Rammstein will have a new dimension to the rock and roll experience (in addition to hearing the lyrics to their favorite bands's music in a game context); today, Console Digest is reporting that there will be localized websites for the Rock Band 3 game.

The country-specific sites will be unveiled in the UK (www.RockBand3.co.uk), Germany (www.RockBand3.de), France (www.RockBand3.fr) and the Nordic countries www.RockBand.se.
Game Awards
The game has received quite a few awards like “Best Rhythmic Game at Gamescon 2010 and will feature the music of Tokio Hotel, Rammstein, Roxette and other international acts.
For Tokio Hotel fans who play the game, it'll be another chance to hear the lyrics for "Humanoid" in yet another musical context. Should be an awesome experience for both gamers and music fans alike!
