The Guitar Hero Thread

[METALMAN]

No you can't. Sorry to disappoint.

[AnnIQ Edison]

I just got XBL and have linked up my GH:III to an account on the site. Do I now just play the game noramlly and it will update itself on the site or what happens now?

[Tarheels.]

So I heard that they were going to have Low by Flo Rida but it's the Travis Barker remix.

Please tell me it's nothing more than terrible rumors

[ragbag]

It was confirmed to be in in a USA Today article, unfortunately.

[Regia]

It'll be funny watching geeky whiteboys think they're gangsta singing it though .

[Full_Metal_Wolf]

Yay, today I beat Pride And Joy on Expert! That song had been killing me for a while. Only problem is that I can't beat One.(Got 74% in before failing to something that I am forgetting at the moment...) Number Of The Beast is just insane...I have the initial beat down, but barely manage to get past the (BO) R R, etc. sequences before inevitably failing because I'm somehow missing some notes. On the positive side, I can get nearly every note in My Name Is Jonas, and Impulse is a walk in the park.

Any tips on Number Of The Beast, or pretty much any song that requires some pretty intense workage of the frets?

[NobBe Nobbs]

1) Put the game down.

2) Buy Rock Band.

3) Burn your copy of Guitar Hero.

There is no advice you can be given on them period.

I saw that they're releasing a Pumpkins pack too that has 1979 which has me insanely excited about that. Plus after seeing the Tool songs, Muse, Mars Volta (hopefully we can get a track pack from them once the DLC starts flowing in), Coldplay, The Doors. Basically there are very few songs on this list that I can see myself dislike playing. There's just too many good ones.

[zero]

Good setlist, but a lot of crossover with Rock Band. Still, it'll be worth it for Pat Benetar, Michael Jackson and Ted Nugent.

When will one of these games have some Incubus? I want to sing Incubus

I agree with this.

[Tarheels.]

So I just pre-ordered this, it's coming out in North America on the 26th of October. Before then I'm also getting a 12 Month for XBL again so I'm going to need somebody to play GH4 with, so how many people intend on getting this when it comes out.

[EddieRuckus]

I will, not sure what instrument I'll play yet but I'll be up for playing, I saw enough unique songs that I was interested in that I'll at least be buying the game, since I have a microphone and a drum set from Rock Band.

[Kyle_]

Although there's a few too many songs that are on both RB2 and GH:WT, I will def be picking this up. Are they releasing a new guitar with this as well?

[ZJ Penn]

2005. The very first Guitar Hero has Stellar on it about halfway through the setlist. It's not a master recording but it's decent enough.

SING, I want to SING!

[Tarheels.]

They are releasing a new guitar. It has the "slide" feature which is very similar to the solo buttons on RB, but this acts as a slide where you just have to slide your finger up and down it.

[Clawson]

Phew....I was worried when I read Oasis it would be followed by Wonderwall, but Some Might Say is probably the second song I'd want on there the most behind Supersonic.

[Benji]

Odd question, does anyone know how to clean off the gunk left behind by the stickers on a GH guitar? I put them on one night out of boredom, took them off and now my guitar is all horrid and grey and sticky
