Guitar Hero.

Recommended Posts

Replacement disc arrived this afternoon. I played it, in stereo. I don't know if there is a difference b/c I got my sound system between the time I sent the disc off and got the new one in.

 

Either way, back to pretending I'm a rock star.

SUpposedly there is going to be a free song pack released in celebration of St. Patricks Day.

Additionally, Activision will be kicking off the St. Patrick's Day celebrations with a special free track pack from the popular Celtic punk band Dropkick Murphys that will be available mid March. Straight from the band's sixth album, The Meanest of Times, the Dropkick Murphys pack will include master recordings of "Famous for Nothing," "(F)lannigan's Ball" and "Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ya." The track pack will be available for free to download on Xbox LIVE Marketplace and PLAYSTATION®Store.

 

Awesome. I love the Murphys. I'll have to take my HD over to a friend's house and download it on their box though.

I don't wanna bitch on the fact that there's going to be a Dropkick Murphy's pack for free but it would have been nice to have the cover of Amazing Grace and their obviously most famous song (I'm Shipping Up to Boston) in that pack.

Well if we're talking favorites I'd love some of their more well known stuff like "Amazing Grace", "Sunshine Highway" or maybe something more upbeat like "The Dirty Glass". I'll take what I can get.

 

Or they could have another band like Flogging Molly. I'd love to get a crack at something like "The Devil's Dance Floor" or "Drunken Lullabies" (esp. the banjo opening).

 

Either way, I've gotta make sure I get this downloaded before the St. Patrick's Day parade here in town. Running the parade, getting plastered, then trying to stagger through this sounds like fun.

not sure if this would warrant a thread but here's an early track list of Guitar Hero: Aerosmith I got from Wikipedia in which they source Gamepro Magazine:

 

"All the Young Dudes" Mott the Hoople

"Dream Police" Cheap Trick

"Make It" Aerosmith

"Uncle Salty" Aerosmith

"Draw the Line" Aerosmith

"I Hate Myself for Loving You" Joan Jett

"All Day and All of the Night" The Kinks

"Movin' Out" Aerosmith

"No Surprize" Aerosmith

"Sweet Emotion" Aerosmith

"Complete Control" The Clash

"Personality Crisis" New York Dolls

"Livin' on the Edge" Aerosmith

"Rag Doll" Aerosmith

"Love in an Elevator" Aerosmith

"Kings and Queens" Aerosmith

"Mama Kin" Aerosmith

"Walk This Way" Aerosmith

"Dream On" Aerosmith

 

and according to the same source there will be tracks from Stone Temple Pilots, White Stripes, Lenny Kravitz, Black Crowes, and Deep Purple, basically the game will be 60 percent Aerosmith songs and 40 songs of bands and artists that were influenced by them

The Kinks were influenced by Aerosmith? ;)

 

That said, I'd get this just to be able to play a Black Crowes song..

 

Having said that, I really hope we get a GH: Led Zeppelin one day..

You don't have to wait. Just get Rock Band and download "Hard to Handle".

I may just buy it for songs by them. Depending on the songs of course.

 

Oh yeah, and where the fuck is my Wii Downloadable contenet?!

I'm sure they'll include all of Aerosmith's singles. From what I have read, the game will follow the band's rise to stardom, beginning from their first gig till present time. Songs will apparently appear in chronological order, which means that instead of cursing the final tier of songs for their difficulty, we'll curse them for being so shitty in comparison to earlier tracks. Also, each set will be structured as such:

 

Song 1- Other band

Song 2- Other band

Song 3- Aerosmith

Song 4- Aerosmith

Encore- Aerosmith

I don't want to miss a thing is going to be in this game.

 

 

Man they really bombed on this. They could have done a Judas Priest game instead.

Except Priest are nowhere near as marketable as Aerosmith.

And have a fraction of the amount of hit songs.

 

 

But there are better songs to play, and more challenging.

 

Breaking the Law, Victim of Changes, Beyond the Realms of Death, The Hellion/Electric Eye, Painkiller. (This would be a sweet song to play on Rock Band)

Well, the Guitar Hero drums have been revealed. They have 5 drums to hit, as opposed to Rock Band's 4. Which means the drums are incompatible.

Yeah, a ton of shit has been confirmed:

 

- Vocals and drums included

- Create a player

- Players will be able to create their own songs, sans vocals, and upload 5 at a time for sharing.

 

The drums do have 5 pieces, with the cymbals being blue and orange, but there is a bass pedal as well:

Oh, I almost forgot... ATTN: AGENT OF OBLIVION- I finally fucking did it! Weird thing is, I hadn't played GH in weeks, and it only took me about 7 tries yesterday to beat "Through the Fire and the Flames" on Expert:

I wish they raise up the left side of the kit to allow for closed hand drumming. This is the main gripe I hear from drummers that I know. It still looks pretty cool, though.

I'm impressed. Haven't played the game in at least a month or two. I'll have to take another crack at it this weekend.

Does anyone else find it annoying to play GH with people who can't? The you play and do really well, only to feel like a dick because you're the only person in the room good at it?
