Pulling the plug: no PSP-to-PS3 interaction for Rock Band

If Retribution and Resistance 2 had some form of “Infected mode”, could Rock Band have something similar? An ability to share songs between platforms or unlock special content, perhaps? In case some of you guys were hoping for this, Harmonix and MTV Games wants you to know that Rock Band: Unplugged for the PSP will definitely be unplugged. Unplugged from the PS3 version, that is.

Ever since the handheld spinoff was announced, people were hoping that Rock Band and/or Rock Band 2 for the PS3 might be able to have some connectivity features with Unplugged – maybe share songs or unlock special content. This notion was shot down by Harmonix, telling 1Up last week at a game demonstration that the feature was not going to happen.
