But no MSI.

Screw dat

Actually, I'll buy the game and love it. I just don't particularly like any of those songs/bands.

*gasp*

It has Van Halen, Black Sabbath, Alice in Chains, Primus, Rush, Stone Temple Pilots, and various rad-ass songs by other bands I haven't even heard of.

Love incarnate.

W00t GH1 kicked ass can't wait for this one to come out. Personally. I liked all the song's in GH1, but they need some newer bands if you ask me..Green day, Linkin Park..Etc. But eh. The song list is pretty good so far. Keep it coming.

New bands suck compared to 70s rock, and they always want a lot more money than the artists who are done performing for royalties.

Anyway, I liked playing Guitar Hero when I had the chance (don't own a single Sony device in this household and I intend to keep it that way) at my friend's house. I think GH2 isn't going to fly off the shelves like its predecessor simply because of the lack of recognizable songs. I mean, the first game had about half popular songs and half unknown things, and that doesn't even include the bonus tracks.

I've heard maybe four songs on that list.

Ps no dragonforce? =(

Re: Guitar Hero 2

Hehe.

This has been on my calendar since June.

Decent playlist.

@ Pheonix: No. New bands have nothing on classic rock. Rush's music is musical genious, and influenced and inspired a lot of IDM today.

lol ya, just TRY to play Dragonforce on GH. THE GUITARIST FOR DRAGONFORCE PROBABLY COULDN'T EVEN DO IT.

I've heard of seventeen of these bands and like all the songs they've chosen to use. I can't wait for it.

Re: Guitar Hero 2

Oh man, "Misirlou" and "Beast and the Harlot". I can't wait to play those on expert.

There's a Youtube video of them playing Guitar Hero.

They suck at it.

Re: Guitar Hero 2

Isn't "Free Bird" suppose to be on that list too?

[scorpio1690]

Re: Guitar Hero 2

=O

If this has Freebird I'm buying it for sho.

Lynyrd Skynyrd only really needs two song names.

"Freebird" and "Not Freebird". Cause really, that's the only song people care about.

[Metalmuppet]

Re: Guitar Hero 2

The songlist also has "Last Child" and "Hangar 18". Yes, Freebird is on there.

If you don't know at least 7 songs from that list, it just might be that rock isn't your musical genre. If you haven't heard at least War Pigs, Heart Shaped Box, You Really Got Me, and Shout at the Devil, you probably haven't tuned in to a classic rock station in your entire life. And, if you haven't heard of at least half the bands, well, just goes to show you might be out of your element again.

What I'm getting at is rock enthusiasts will have heard just as many songs from this game as from the one previous.

ALSO:

They are supposed to have about 50 liscenced songs this time around. This list is hardly complete yet. I know they are working on getting the Iron Maiden liscence (Number of the Beast is rumored to be on the game) just for starters.

Re: Guitar Hero 2

I've probably heard the songs but the titles are unfamiliar.

If they're unfamiliar to me, someone who grew up on 70s / 80s / 90s rock, they won't be familiar to the majority of the people who grew up without it.

The problem is listening to radio stations and hearing the songs but not the titles.

Re: Guitar Hero 2

Click on the guitarherogame.com link I posted. They have little short snippets of 14 of the songs up on it, just like they do in Guitar Hero when you scroll over a song and wait to hear a sample of it.
