[Update: Apparently the song is available right now. GO GO GO!] This news is not a lie! "Still Alive", sang by GlaD0S at the end of Portal, is making its way to Rock Band. Xbox 360 Rock Band owners will be able to download the track tomorrow and PS3 owners will get the song on April 17th. The best part is that the song will be completely free for both platforms. So why such a delay with the PS3 version of the track? The PSN store is currently undergoing remodeling, so nothing will be available for a few weeks. This is probably going to be the only good thing coming out on April 1st in the videogame world. Everything on the Internet tomorrow will be a lie for the most part. So are you as giddy as a monkey on crack at this news like me? PR after the jump.
ROCK BAND Media Alert ROCK BAND(tm) TO FEATURE FREE DOWNLOAD OF "STILL ALIVE" FROM VALVE'S PORTAL(tm) This is a triumph ... Harmonix Music Systems and MTV Games have teamed up with Valve to bring the song "Still Alive", released as part of The Orange Box collection of games on PC, 360 and Playstation 3, into the Rock Band library. And, as icing on the cake, the track will be available as a FREE download on April 1 for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and April 17 for the PLAYSTATION(r)3 computer entertainment system. Written by Jonathan Coulton and originally performed over the end credits of Portal, the experimental single-player game in The Orange Box, "Still Alive" found its way into the heads and hearts of gamers and quickly became a cult classic. "While the cake may be a lie, the free download of "Still Alive" is confirmed truth," said Greg LoPiccolo, VP of product development at Harmonix. "'Still Alive' is an awesome song that brings together great gaming and great music. We've teamed up with Valve to deliver a free download of "Still Alive" as a "thank you" to our fans for their incredible support." "Rock Band has lit the industry on fire by opening a new market for cooperative musical gaming," said Doug Lombardi, VP of marketing at Valve. "We're delighted Harmonix has selected the track for inclusion in the growing library of tracks available for this phenomenal title." With the addition of "Still Alive" to the Rock Band library, there are now more than 70 tracks available for download in addition to the 58 tracks in the original game. To date, gamers have purchased more than 6 million downloadable songs for Rock Band since its launch on November 20, 2007. Downloadable content for the Xbox 360 will be available via Xbox LIVE(r) Marketplace using Microsoft Points and is downloaded directly to the Xbox 360 hard drive. Downloadable content for the PLAYSTATION 3 system's version of Rock Band will be available on the PLAYSTATION(r)Store through the free PLAYSTATION(r)Network and is downloaded directly to PLAYSTATION 3 system's built in hard drive.

Fucking sweet! I was excited for this already, but even more excited now that I know it's free! :D
ohmygoohmygoohmygodmygodohgodmyohmygodmygodohmygodgodmyohgodohgodmygodoh!
I mean yay!
dear god,
Fuck Yeah!!
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
YES...YES...GOD YES OH MY
PORTAL: The nerd circlejerk/(un)ironic internet meme joke/retard fanboy hype product of 2007.
Just a moment too late... I hate you Knives.
It's a lie, the PS3 version is coming out the sametime.
That was a joke, ha ha, fat chance.
I was going to sell my Rock Band..... now it might have to wait.
Awesome! I have a friend that sounds exactly like GLaDOS, so this'll be perfect!
I just hope this releases on time...
I call singing. I CALL SINGING!
YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
Does it come with cake?
APRIL FOOLS! HAHAHA!
I was thinking that this song would be released 4/01 ever since it was announced to be DLC, but it being free is very welcomed.
I personally see this as one upping Neversoft with the free Halo theme download game these wise (Four instruments > two).
HUGE SUCCESS!
How I will spend the 150 they will probably charge to Rock Band if they have this in the European Version!
RB DLC FTW!
See Guitar Hero. This is what we like to call "The Right Way".
Joy! Rapture! Jizz!
@Hitogoroshi
I don't get what you're saying.
+10 points if you can sing the Destructoid version to it.
I wanted Rock Band before... now I'm buying it ASAP.
Am I the only one who thinks this is an April Fools day joke?
If it isn't I am going to play the hell out of it....wait, it hasn't been released in the UK yet. Fucking EA :(
Hells yeah. Kinda wish it was the JoCo version, but I'll be checking all night long for when this drops.
I wish I could download 2 cause thats how much I loves me some Portals.
Awesome! I would of paid for it you know EA but thanks for the free song (from my game of the year). Keep the great content coming Harmonix!
There's a video of the dude that wrote the song performing it with his band, in Rock Band form. So it's definitely real.
My 360 just red ringed. D:
Oh yes. So glad I wore panties today.
WOOOOOO! This made my day. Too bad I have to wait till summer to play.
Now if only I owned it....:<
That's an interesting move. I personally would have paid money for it, and I'm sure many of my fellow gamers would do the same, but they chose to release it for free?
Aww sweet! This is gonna be awesome... WHEN THE FUCKING GAME IS RELEASED IN FUCKING PAL TERRITORIES! AAAAAAAAAAHGAAAAAAAGHAGHHAG GOD DAMN IT.
I <3 you Nordstorm
And it's available right now!!
Yes! YES THIS SONG IS AWESOME!
YES!
Too bad I need to wait till April 17 for the PSN version to kick in.
But I guess I get a updated PSN and 'Still Alive' thats good.
In the words of Mr. Concelmo....
AMAZING!
OH FUCKING HELL! I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS TOO! Cause, you know ROCK BAND IS FUCKING RELEASED HERE IN AUSTRALIA! GOD DAMN IT! THIS IS PURE FUCKING BULLSHIT NOW.
Although I'm excited about this, I think it's a shame that there isn't more.
There are april fools jokes and there's being mean
This is fucking mean
The download is out. EARLY. Go play it goddamnit.
People who said this was an April Fool's joke, you got thirty minutes to admit you were wrong. And all can be forgiven.
I'm suspecting every fucking piece of news now, so call me tomorrow.
Free is nice.
Or you could check out all the YouTube videos added in the last 2 hours of people playing it: Here
Do want. Want euroepean release of rock band more. Urge to send antrhax to EA rising.
Oh mannnnn
