Nice setlist you missed out Three doors down though
wtf!!!!! no metallica????? well i guess they did just come out with there own game…
Why no SOAD???
I know it will never happen again but I would die to see Bloc Party in GH.
Looks like a decent setlist. Not what I’d call their, “best setlist ever”
I NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHERE IS SOAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dey should make one jus 4 dem
Is it just me who thinks Guitar Hero is embarassingly filled with Pop for a GUITAR orientated game, rather than a singing game?
GET SOME MORE METAL IN THERE DAMMIT.
Harold Rodriguez has got it spot on, this is the worst one yet for metal. Sort it out guitar hero
Wat the heck no foo fighters or metallica, what about sublime, or the beatles.
oh snap there is sublime. it should be doin time
I don’t think the line-up is horrible, clearly Guitar Hero 5 is going for a specific target audience with bands like Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, Sonic Youth, The Killers, Vampire Weekend, TV On The Radio. The setlist is shockfull of indie bands. Hopefully other versions of the game will continue to include different bands from different genres.
There are alot of obviouses and surprises in the setlist. I mean come on, led zepplid should have been up there with lynard skynard in GH2. It’s also good to see some returns like megadeth and iron maiden. i think this might be a good seller and enjoyable gameplay
Why no pantera would of liked to seen walk
What no gnr def lepperd no journey they dont even have vanhalen wthat about ERUPTIoN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am excited to FINALLY play RUNNIN DOWN A DREAM. I like that they got the Rolling Stones back in there along with Bon Jovi, John Mellencamp, Elton John’s Saturday Night’s Alright for Fightin will be a blast on guitar, finally Dire Straits, Rush (hopefully Spirit of Radio), Queen and David Bowie (probably Under Pressure), Peter Frampton (hopefully Show me the Way), Police, Thin Lizzy, Kiss, and Grand Funk Railroad (hopefully We’re an American Band). However, where is GUNS N ROSES WITH PARADISE CITY????? WHERE IS MORE DEF LEPPARD WITH POUR SOME SUGAR ON ME???? THEY NEED TO GET MORE HARD ROCK AND CLASSIC ROCK (JOURNEY- DON’T STOP BELIEVIN)???
cj- I don’t believe they put Van Halen on there, although I do LOVE them, because they are coming out with a Guitar Hero:Van Halen this summer which does include Eruption! I do agree with you though that Def Leppard and gnr should be on there!!!!!
hell yeah Rammstein its about time i hope its Buck Dich
Please Forget Def Leppard – Way,Way Overated. Now as for GNR – I’m with you all,
but nobody mentions one of the Best Songs Ever – “I used to Love Her” – That’s
what I’m talkin about. Put that with “Sweet Child O’ Mine”, and I’m a happy Man.
Also, maybe I’m seeing things, did I see “All Along the Watchtower” by Dylan &
not Hendrix. Listen Dylan might have written it, but Jimi made it into the Greatest
Rock Song of All Time. Please tell me I’m wrong about seeing this
IM KOOKIN OUT. Gov’t Mule, T-rex, The Funk, Stevie Wonder the list goes on. HOLY DOG SHIT!!!
The setlist is better than 4 ill give it that but still comon. What has happen to the GUITAR in guitar hero? Like really? Guitar heros 1-3 were just epic and each one got harder. Now they are just pathetic. I cant believe that we ve gotten to the point where Weezer (which is possible one of the most homosexual bands ever) to officially have more songs in a guitar hero than Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet for my Valentine, Dragonforce, or Buckethead does. WHATS WITH ALL THE INDIE MUSIC???? and people may say that the developers are just trying to get everyone play the game and attract all aspects of music. UMMM we are at the, what is it now, 8th guitar hero. IF PEOPLE HAVENT STARTED PLAYING IT BY NOW THEY ARENT GOING TO START JUST BECAUSE BOB DYLAN IS IN THE GAME? and if they are trying to make a wide variety then why cant we make a guitar hero with 90% hard rock and metal. 2 VERY POPULAR GENRES RIGHT NOW THAT SEEM TO BE LACKING IN GUITAR HERO 4 AND 5. Guitar hero is a dying series thats going to wear itself out unless it can start to step it up!
dragster i agree with u that GNR(my favorite band)should be on there.They stopped GNR after 3 and then started bringing in all the pop and homosexual bands lyk weezer.Def Leppard should definetly be in there with pour some sugar on me that song rocks!!!!!……. they r taking away the hard rock bands and the game is VERY SLOWLY turning in to guitar hero jonas brothers.!!
guitar hero should honestly dedicate a guitar hero to just creepy and death metal bands. Just use bands like Dope, Mindless self indulgence, lamb of god, Marilyn Manson, Cradle of Filth, Bloodbath. That would make a good game for people that have a large intrest in those genres because they keep making stuff for 8 year olds, homosexuals and old people. Most of the people buying guitar hero are metal fans only buying the game for usually the last 2 setlists of the game. Setlists 7 and 8 were amazing in guitar 2 and 3 but in guitar hero 4 it just sucked. Sure Bullet for my valentine is awesome but everything else was much older stuff.
And to all SOAD fans SOAD only has two good songs everything else is’nt that great.
put all of the songs not bands
im a guitar hero fan but this guitar hero5 with no system of a down songs ?? WTF ???
it’s awesome, very good Dire Straits….
Awesome
what? No Foo Fighters or RHCP??!!!!!
Man, no guitar game is complete without Stairway to heaven , Hendrix, Steely Dan, The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, Alter Bridge, i dont know whyt hey leave thes guuys out every time its so frustrating!
and i agree there are some extremely epicly homosexual bands on there…Duran Duran, Elton John, Coldplay!!!!? i MEAN COME THE FUCK ON
what is up with this bull crap pop wannabe music?
i know just change the name to guitar…wait nah just call it nothing
When are they going to release some good MODERN ROCK tracks. Examples: Chevelle, Collective Soul, Shinedown, Sevendust, Seether, Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Trapt, Audioslave, MORE Avenged Sevenfold, Disturbed, Eve 6 (Inside Out….one of the greastest rock songs of my generation…IMO), The Exies, GREEN DAY, Incubus, Hoobastank, 3 Doors Down, Korn, Linkin Park, Nickelback, Nine Inch Nails, Papa Roach etc
WTF!!!?!?! Really, half of that list up there is bands already featured on the 4 games before. How about something DIFFERNT than the creators gay indie bands favorites and worn out bands. That list sucks, and I refuse to buy another Guitar Hero game until they get some decent music on their setlists. I own II, III, Aerosmith, Metallica, And World Tour. World Tour set list sucked after the 5 gigs. Tool was its only redeeming factor. I love Guitar Hero gameplay, but Rockband has x1,000,000 better songs and the lists you can download are insane. Tons of great modern rock and classic rock tracks. Ive probably downloaded 60 bucks worth of extra songs from RB and RB2. Get your crap together GH creators. Your songs suck.
alls i need is a good nirvana song and the game is complete
guitar hero still needs a soundgarden song in one of there games
but it seems decent and i will probly think about getting it
hey if u want hard metal krap songs go play rock band i like the classics just fine we need to get rid of all the little punks anyway
bands r only homo 2 the people who dnt like them no1 is forcing u to buy the game if u dnt like it dnt buy it
I would like to see some nickelback, anberlin, rise against, disturbed, and green day. They need to get more modern songs if they want to keep attracting younger generations and make more money.
DANG, SUBLIME and KINGS OF LEON! MY FAVORITE BANDS! but it shouldn’t be sex on fire, it should be 4 kicks, and Sublime better be Under my Voodoo! or Badfish
WHAT THE FUCK NO LED ZEPPELIN!!!!!! IF THEY WERE IN THE GAME WOULD BE PERFECT!!!! STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN HAVE BEEN RATED BEST ROCK SONG OF ALL TIME HOW THE HELL COULD THEY SKIP THAT!!!!
Yes Muse Again But What Song This Time ??
DAMN RIGHT, LUCAS!!!!! Those dumbshits keep putting more crap pop music and shit!!! The game should just be, “Rock N’ Roll.” I don’t ever recall one AC/DC or Led Zeppelin song in ANY of the guitar hero games!!
please guys,if your’re actually guys quit the wining over S.O.A.D,people say tallica has lost they’re way well that the way soad started and ended with riffs riffs riffs and rubbish,comon there is no serious subject in any soad songs and if there is the singer is singin it like crap or the guitarist is playing guitar like an 8 year old,its all 1 finger dopr d crap or sounds just plain pathetic,maiden heck even status quo outranks that crap band in 10 fault.avenged sevenfold is okay but still teenagers stuff we need exodus saxon testament megadeth all those classeic thrash band and perhaps dio or priest,this list defines pop hero instead of guitar hero and we all know pop and rap destroyed outrageuos guitarist on mtv and other channels,so this game will not even pay tribute to the guitar.this list is so off or to fast and soulles micheal angelo batio and to slow and simple/boring nirvana really im done with this stuff i pretend it does’nt exist.
No country and i will be happy… this is a rock and roll game!!!! put in some more metal!
they should make a guitar hero
they should make a guitar hero SYSTEM OF A DOWN. I would buy it on the first day.
or make a guitar hero metal version, for us metal heads. I would want chop suey by SOAD on it. Because rock band pisses me off
Wow, no Rise against… balls…
dude, they need to make a pure metal GH.
with slipknot, metallica, five finger death punch, a7x etc..
this crap ain’t cuttin’ it. this has to be the crappiest GH yet.
Pantera would have been awesome, especially if they had becoming
I think if you view the way gh is set up its better than rb but rb has way more songs
the next gh should be focused on modern day songs like Atreyu -Becoming the Bull or Nickelback
i must admit that greenday and ac/dc are big misses
they always put gay bands in no metal or hardcore or screamo And how the hell DID BECK get in there the only good band i like is ATTACK ATTACK! i probably won’t buy this one
People do you research before you QQ about the songlist. There is no and never will be led zeppelin in a rhythm game, they have announced multiple times that the only way you can play one of there songs is with a real instrument. No beatles, AC/DC, or GNR because they are rock band exclusives. There is no Van halen because they have their own game coming out. I think this has to be one of the best GH games based off of the bands some of them have really caught my eye. Going down the list i can hope for Kiss-love gun, Blink182-whats my age again, Muse-supermassive blackhole, White stripes-seven nation army, gorrilaz-feel good inc, racontuers-steady as you go, coldplay-Talk, Nirvana-smells like teen spirit, Rush-Spirit of the radio (anything would be awesome though lol), Smashing pumpkins-bullet with butterfly wings, Attack attack-stick stickly, wolfmother-Joker and the thief, Beck-loser, Weezer-island in the sun, Queen and david bowie-under pressure (duh), The killers-All these things that ive done, rolling stones-sympathy for the devil, thin lizzy-Jailbreak, elton john-tiny dancer. thats what im hoping for anyway
it better be girls girls girls by motley crue
hurry up and tell us what songs it is and not just the feking artists i dont care about the artists in the end its the solo/riff i care about
im a drummer so i dont care actually :P
So far they have only released the list of bands and not the song list, yet. As soon as i get it i will post it.
Hm, me getting this all relies pretty much on what Megadeth song they’ve put in.
Also, SOAD fans…shut up. SOAD had ONE SONG in the HISTORY of Guitar Hero. Its not like this is the first one WITHOUT it.
With any luck, you go RB Style and Export all of the songs from Neversofts Band games (Metallica, GHWT+GHWT DLC) would make it much better. Perhaps even export the GH3 songs into the game too?
Do that, and Rock Band has one less player! (PST…I mean me)
Damn this setlist suck
why??????????????????
why dont they put some ACDC, Led Zeppelin, Santana (another one), more rock! they arent focusing on guitar, they are focusing on shity songs
maybe they have so much indie because indie is good. + they just came out with mettallica which is 100% metal. Im buyin this just for arctic monkeys they are the best
No attreyu, anberlin, a7x, disturbed, rise against, shadows fall, or foo fighters. Hell, I would have settled for a my chemical romance song. I’d sure hate for these genius creators to satisfy the people who got them rich and famous. Thanks for the disappointment.
They seriously need Enter Shikari and taking back sunday on guitar hero!!
i think that everyone talking bout metal is right i canplay expert and after aerosmith i wanted GH$ so bad and i quit playing cause of those gay ASS songs on there. Put some AC/DC in there, metallica, GNR, Zepplin, some metal i mean these gay songs wont cut it
they need to get more metal in there instead of this light pop stuff, thats not real guitar. put in metallica and metal like that
this is a load. ever since they added the vocals and crap they made everything more pop. bring back the good songs. i loved the over 90% of the songs on GH2. i want songs that im gonna actually have to try on. not songs where its the same notes over and over. and they should have a GH black sabbath/heaven and hell
Look at the bright side, this is a whole lot fuckin’ better than Guitar Hero World Tours list, that was preety horrible accually lol. I’m so glad Children Of Bodom is on it too, Kissing the shadows would be epic. I hope it’s Holy Wars… The Punishment Due by Megadeth will be on it. And I’m fine with any Smashing Pumpkins song from thier first 3 albums… They’re my favorite band so it’s great to still see them on Guitar Hero. Geek U.S.A needs to be on the next guitar hero, It has really hard drums and guitar. The solo is #53 on GuitarWorld. Geek U.S.A would be freakin’ epic. Beck! I’m so happy! Thatt was unexpecting! And Gorillaz! And if they’re going to have any Elton John son they better have Rocketman! AND WHITE STRIPES OMG YES. The only bands that are bad on here are the emo bands (like Thrice, EW) and a few of the indie bands. This is an epic win for Guitar Hero, If they have all of each of the bands best songs on this game that would make this the best guitar hero hands down.
And Blue Orchid by White Stripes will be on it not Seven Nation Army. Both songs though would be nice … They should have The White Stripes be a band on it and be playable characters :D
I love when you guys think so much about the worst band in history, SOAD. They had like one good song in their entire career. When I see people say metal and start naming all these mainstream bands it sickens me. Now what Guitar Hero should do is think hmm, 90% of the people who play this its because they want to play a fast, fun, hard song. In this case, metal would be amazing. Get some technical bands on there like Protest the Hero or The Human Abstract. If they could put Mea Culpa or Vela, Together We Await the Storm, I would buy this game in a heart beat.
Oh and it better be Downfall by CoB haha, songs epic.
No Metallica!!!!!!Man!Activision/Neversoft is the worst!!!!!!!!!
CoB should have kissing the shadows, and guitar hero should put more metal bands… or at least their DLC be better because on world tour it sucks bad!!!!
For all of those who are completely unaware, there will be no time in the near future where you will see any song from Led Zeppelin on Guitar Hero or Rock Band. In numerous interviews and requests, Jimmy Page has expressed ABSOLUTELY NO INTEREST in allowing GH or RB to use their songs. He is completley against the whole idea of people learning “how to play instruments” by the use of a video game. While I am a super fan of Led Zeppelin I am sorry to say we will not now or probably ever see a Led Zeppelin song on any video game!
WTF is there no Zeppelin in any of these games, get some more good classic rock in a Guitar game.
for all u idiots out there that were in a coma in march, THEY JUST CAME OUT WITH GUITAR HERO METALLICA. if u want to play metallica that damn bad go buy it. and seriously they need some metal bands on here. like trivium, atreyu, a7x, devil wears prada, underoath, more lamb of god, more korn, more killswitch engage, gojira, more disturbed, more slipknot, bring me the horizon, bless the fall, more all that remains, and a day to remember. and it would be pretty kool to see bob marley on there too. and seriously putting vocals in there just made the game so much worse. all it did was make them add gay ass songs. next thing u know hannah montana and all those disney cunts and no sex ring wearing faggots will be on it.
Everyone quit bitching that there’s no Zeppelin. As of right now, there never will be. They’re not a sell out band. That’s why you can’t buy their music on iTunes or at least you couldn’t. They chose not to sell out like other bands. Again, they just came out with Guitar Hero: Metallica. It’s amazing. Shut the hell up that there’s no Metallica in this guitar hero. Just shut the hell up. If you don’t like the set list, don’t buy it. Quit being p.i.t.a.’s.
They do need to start putting some better music on guitar hero. I would love to see some more metal/progressive stuff. Dream Theater, Dragonforce, KSE, Slipknot, and other stuff that would be fun, but challenging. Some of the stuff is good, but some stuff is just what the hell is going on. I think it will overall be a fun and entertaining game. Should be good.
Omg stop goin on about metallica iluv them yes but there getin there own game so its pointless putin there songs on gh5 just buy gh metallica i was hopeing to see sume soad and slipknot but thats my opinion
Honestly, I wish that you guys would read first, post later… Instead of 18 messages about how Stairway to Heaven wont be on this. You act like that was their best/only song to begin with, but just stfu…
As for all of these metal demanding people… who name great bands and than in the same breath… ask for some real shit bands. Yeah slipknot would have been awesome but we (i hope) want the old shit… Iowa and older. At best we could expect Vermillion 2 to actually make the cut.
Point is, shut the fuck up.
Metallica came out, and you are a bunch of whiners. Get over it and go play a real guitar.
THIS GAY AS SHIT!!!
pop ass gay shitty cock songs
They better commemorate michael jackson now!
And don’t even say anything assholish. Sure he had allogations against him but did anything happen with those allogations? I didn’t think so. And even so he was a person, I’ve already wrote it once but if your mom looked a little funny and had some false allogations would you be happy if she died? Didn’t think so. He may not have been close to you personally but he was a human life! And all human lives should be commemorated (if they were famous :D)
And no, I’m definitely not religious e-mail me if you want my religious views-
s_hultine@live.com
but seriously, DEFINITELY NEED SOME MICHAEL JACKSON NOW!! THRILLLLAAAAH! THRILLER NIIIIGHT!
no ones forcing you to buy the game. if you dont like it just sit down and shut up because your complaining is just anoying. i personally love indie rock and i think this is the best setlist yet. they gave you metal ass holes guitar hero metallica so stop complaining.
they need to stop making it a pop-oriented game I mean srsly there focusing on mainstreamism not on difficult guitar songs…..
weres the metal srsly
Cynic
Death
atheist
necrophagist
the faceless
nile
mostly death but all have a list of songs that would fit Really well
WTF! NO LINKIN PARK!?!?!?!?
Hahaha, I just read the requests that people would like to see in guitar hero games… Nickelback? Avenged Sevenfold? Green Day?
Come on. That stuff is shit. Personally, I’m more than happy with the bands on here…
Band Of Horses
Muse
The White Stripes
Beck
Weezer
Sonic Youth
Vampire Weekend
TV On The Radio
great fun, and fantastic music. Stop bitching, go wear assless leather chaps, watch The Song Remains The Same, and leave fans of good music alone.
p.s.
fuck metal
p.p.s.
SONIC YOUTH!!!
poeple only know them from Kool Thing, but if you’re looking for great music, listen to EVOL, Sonic Nurse, Washing Machine, A Thousand Leaves, etc.
p.p.p.s.
linkin park?
FAIL.
OMG :D rolling stones,, old classics and new legends are all involved in this great setlist. So what if thers no metallica, u have the metallica version for that :P cnt wait for this one to cum out.
Seems alright… I’m getting into music cause of gh and yeah, i wish there was more metal. And whichever game comes out with Seether first i will stay with that music game. Oh and Silvergun. I’m kinda tired of the pop personally. And something harder than through the fire and flames. I’m over it. Beat it on Smash Hits. Just stating my opinion.
And i agree i want more SOAD (B.Y.O.B. rocked in GHWT) and Disturbed-DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS! Seriously though some Seether.
what about system of a down!!!!!!
Exactly some SOAD (System of a Down)! Chop Suey or Sugar would be my picks.
Seether:Like Suicide, Fake it, F*** it, or Pig
Silvergun:Ridin’ With the Devil (Crazy on drums)
Maybe another Dragonforce song to make things hard
good god this is the worst set list anyone could have ever created first of all the game is GUITAR hero and a little over 3/4 of this setlist i listen to and hear almost no guitar what happened to guitar hero having the great ROCKnROLL bands such as motorhead, Blue oyster cult, cream, ozzy, black sabbath, now granted zz top is not the best band ever but it was fun to play, im glad megadeth is back but there are more bands that could be added such as more hendrix (with vocals), led zeppelin would be amazing of course but will likely never happen, more iron maiden, some Black label society (you know that amazing guitar player from ozzy Zakk Wylde’s band) stevie ray vaughn was good on 3 why not more of him the sysytem of a down and slayer songs are hard but imensly fun to play they need to leave out the pop rock such as def lepard and definatly NO JOURNEY if you need JOURNEY to be in guitar hero your messed up it’s a chick band Now some classic REO Speedwagon before they turned into a chick band would be nice
but my biggest thing is why not add more thrash metal such as more Slayer Anthrax TESTAMEN Overkill Exodus or even High of Fire and more THE SWORD keep soft rock crap out especially the efed up hair metal such as motley crue and i swear if i have to play one more Poison song i will burn my copy of guitar hero and never play another one
Well I like that they brought The Sword back, Freya was one of my favorites off of GH2. Also I like that they put Darkest Hour in there, hope its Demon(s). And Attack Attack but yeah the Guitar Hero franchise is just like falling like im into Deathcore and that stuff so i need stuff thats heavy not Elton John. Honestly they should make a Deathcore/Death Metal GH but they most likely will never do it just cuz it be damn hard but whatever it’d be a challenge. I remember when I got GH4 and i got 5 stars on every song except for Satch Boogie and Hot for Teacher. just sad
Hahaha dude you guys crack me up! like i said earlier no ones forcing you to get the game. hey i have a GREAT idea! if you love all that metal shit and want to play it WHY DON’T YOU PLAY IT ON A REAL INSTRUMRENT AND NOT A GAME! stop your bitching and do something real! seriously! and i still think this is the best ssetlist yet. my only complaint is maybe some RHCP. they have one of the best lineups in the history of music in my opinion.
Hahaha dude you guys crack me up! like i said earlier no ones forcing you to get the game. hey i have a GREAT idea! if you love all that metal shit and want to play it WHY DON’T YOU PLAY IT ON A REAL INSTRUMRENT AND NOT A GAME! stop your bitching and do something real! seriously! my only complaint is maybe some RHCP. they have one of the best lineups in the history of music in my opinion.
okay people they were saying that you can transfer you setlist from guitar hero world tour to guitar hero 5.
and plus there will be downloadable content!
chill people.
I have to agree with Supa. It is time for a metal only Guitar Hero. I am a huge Marilyn Manson fan but have been disappointed year after year. Enough with Nirvana and Beastie Boys as well as Sonic Youth and Weezer. How about more of Korn and SOAD ( one song each) and how about Manson, Killswith, and Atreyu. I have become an expert at playing songs weith my eyes closed and head falling back because the songs are boring and make me sleepy. How about a guitar hero where fans can vote for their personal favorites!?!?!?
Good setlist….. to much indie…
YAY FOR BLINK 182!!!
deff needs more metal though…
no SOAD!
No RATM!
No Slipknot!
and why haven’t Seether or Karnivool had a song yet?
Still, looking fowrad to blink 182, Smashing Pumpkins, B’ Boys and Rolling Stones
Stevie Wonder better be Superstion!
THE WHITE STRIPES are on there?!!?!?! That’s awesome!!!! What song? It’s kind of odd though because they don’t normally have any bass in there… Oh well. It’s Guitar Hero not Rock Band anyways…
I’m gonna have to say that this is one of the most exciting setlists for me :D
NO GUNS N’ ROSES!!!!! Now I love eveything else but the no GNR thing ticks me off!!!! UGH somebody call the company I want my GNR! But I love Thin Lizzy good choice!
Thank god the makers of GH finally realised that putting the likes of the Arctic Monkeys, Kings of Leon, Blur e.t.c will increase their sales on GH5 hugely
P.S I really cant understand why people are moaning about there being too much indie because some people have had enough of playing shite like system of a down seriously i ive had to play all the other GH with the likes of motorhead, bullet for my valentine, korn, metallica who personally i think are shit and you are moaning because 1 out of the 5 or GH have indie in it? How about if they made the next 3 or 4 GH with similar setlists? You’d then understand what its like to sit year after year playing games with 70% of the songs you think are shit.
they need more modern rock like 3 days grace, breaking benjamin, korn, A7X, Rise against, Disturbed, Papa Roach, Bullet for my Valentine, and Linkin Park.. come on Guitar hero
this is a fact you will be able to export GHWT songs to the system you can play them on GH5
I don’t know about GH Metallica and smash hits but it seems likely that they will also transfer
there are a few band i like to see like the the smiths
dio
the misfits
cannibal corpse
heaven & hell
gwar
himsa
bleeding through
static-x
tiger army
the 69 eyes
dead to fall
the trashmen with surfin bird
turbonegro
satyricon
overkill
mindless self indulgence with shut me up
king diamond welcome home
johhny cash
devildriver
those are justa few band i would like to see on the next gh
this band set list aint all bad.
i’m an indie fan so i’m glad to see some indie music on there (at long last.)
one problem is that all the hard rock/metal fans are mad that there isnt any “true metal” music on here. i dont know why. “Guitar Hero: Metallica” is out.
another is they are puttin more modern music. they should add a few classics.
but the bands i’m happy with are:
Vampire Weekend
Arctic Monkeys
The White Stripes
Gorillaz
Rolling Stones
Wolfmother
King of Leon
Iggy Pop
Sublime
& TV on the Radio.
But there are some bands that surprised me by them bein there like:
Johnny Cash
and Stevie Wonder
And bands i wouldve wanted on as well are:
The Strokes
The Ramones
The Dead Kennedys
The Gaslight Anthem
Peter Bjorn & John
Bloc Party
& Tokyo Police Club
where the hell is slayer, guitar hero, jesus christ
Holy crap Activision..you took a major shit on this one..the only stuff i saw that i liked was:
Iron Maiden, Nirvana, The Sword, Rammstien, A Perfect Circle, Children of Bodom & Megadeath.
Guitar hero..need i say more?..GUITAR hero..not punk-ass-homo-bitch hero…you majorly need to include:
Bullet For My Valentine, Avenged Sevenfold, Disturbed, Atreyu, Shinedown, Papa Roach, Killswitch Engage, Slayer, Anvil, Escape The Fate, The Offspring, System of a Down, Senses Fail, Diecast, Sevendust….ANYTHING with real freakin guitar! or drums at least since you decided to copy rock band! Jesus Hates You
Oh Ya…Dope, Rise Against, The Fall of Troy..Come on!
Come on wheres foo fighters? For a band game they’re one of the best modern ones. And too much metal isn’t good cause all the drums are like the same with blasts beats and all… it gets easy too fast if your good at it.
holy shit thats not a setlist its just the bands
I agree and disagree with most ppl…. need more modern bands for sure…. slayer, black label society, disturbed, godsmack, s.o.a.d, slipknot, shinedown?, breaking benjamin, what about old skool offspring??, or better older suff could be def leppard, led zepplin, more ozzy!!, pink floyd??, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST………………………………………………………
JOE SATRIANI IS A FUCKING GUITAR GOD!!! ITS HIS LABLE AND HE SHOULD REALLY GET HIS OWN GAME BECAUSE IT WOULD BE ABSOLUTLY STELLAR, BUT NOT ONE SONG??? COME THE FUCK ON!!! SATCH BOOGIE WAS FUCKIN AMAZING TO PLAY EVEN ON THE DRUMS, I THINK HE DESERVES AT LEAST ANOTHER SONG PPL!!!
Wow there’s gonna be a lot of songs on this one. Yay!!!!
Omfg I didn’t see Scars on Broadway!!!! They’re awesome!!!!! Just like System of a Down!!!!!
Led Zeppelin isn’t in this? What does guitar hero have against them?
Who agrees with me on the joe satriani????
I agree with you justin they shouyld have some Led Zeppelin songs like stairway to heaven or houses of the holy at least something. And montrell, Rockband is already making Rock Band Beatles.
They dont have anything against Led Zeppelin. The band is notoriously hard to get to license there stuff out, the reason there’s no Led Zep is cos Led Zep wont let them use there songs, and im not saying i dont like all the indie music and pop i am more of a metal man but tbh calm down, the music on this setlist is alright but then again, if you listen to it, its not exactly guitar driven. The reason stuff like metal is would be better for this is because generally metal is more guitar driven so would be more fun and challenging to play. If you dont like it check out rock band they have a fuck load of downloadable content wich will probably make you happy, theres no Metallica because GH just made a fucking game about them and christ, if you love some of these bands so much to defend them fiercely how bout actually picking up a cheap guitar and amp and learning some basic stuff, guitar is fucking easy, granted it takes some practise but so does most things. Just cos you cant solo as soon as you pick one up it dosent mean you suck you just got to practise. And dont do any stupid hate comments just cos you think im being unreasonable cos ive not bashed any of your bands you nonse
thank god wolfmother is back on GH and the whites stripes are a good addition
nice! i hope they put the red hot chili peppers on the next one and i would like to c a tribute to michael jackson like a human nature or billie jean or maybe if you can a THRILLER!!! :) tht would be nice!
Sick – Brand New is up there. That’s going to be fun to play… considering the song is Sowing Season. It’s a pretty intense one…
Anyway, this is probably the best list yet.
And you metalheads have to understand something – you represent a very small part of the market. Market research goes into making these games, and obviously they have found that more teens are into pop-ier music, which is fine by me because I don’t need a game full of old, mediocre metal.
And believe me, an only-metal Guitar Hero game would flop before it was even made.
they need GH : Pantera , GH : Maiden , GH : SOAD , GH : Joe Satriani , GH : Dimmu Borgir , GH : SoilWork…….The list goes on!!!!
elton john? stevie wonder? that really dosnt fit in with guitar hero plus stevie wonder in all piano!
if they put a def leppard song i will prefer the first ones because after pyromania them songs have a little portion of pop
but def leppard stills rock too fkcng hard
i will prefer billy’s got a gun,high ‘n’ dry,me and my wine or wasted
jesus christ screw scars on broadway, where the hell is system of a down? also some a7x wouldnt hurt and neither would disturbed.. id LOVE to see marilyn manson too.
also the song walk by pantera is loong overdue and needs to be put in at least as DLC
Not gonna be good, no metallica, no avenged sevenfold, no killswitch engage, no system of a down, fuck that rock band is being patient for #3 not like Guitar hero coming out with all these shitty games!
I am NOT going to buy this GH. The only good band on here is children of bodom! Or Rammstein. Where is all the metal or hardcore music? This is “Guitar” Hero. So make it a little bit more difficult. Put some metallica, SLIPKNOT, Disturbed, As i lay dying, A7X, Lamb of god, dope, Sevendust, HATEBREED!, and Shadows fall. Quit putting all these damn EMO, indie music on these fucking games! The faggot ass emo’s don’t even play guitar hero. they sit at home and cut their wrists or suck their faggot ass boyfriends dick!
u guys should b exited 4 this theres 3 times more songs then gh4 and there r some pretty good bands in there but i am mad that there isnt acdc or guns n roses those r the best bands to play gh on but im going to buy it cuz im upsesses wit it and this is going to n awsome cuz theres so many songs
hmm, SOAD are a good band but the two songs of their’s i’ve played on guitar hero (BYOB and toxicity) wern’t all that fun to play so i dont think a specific game for them would work very well. Maybe that’s just me though
sweet.
still waiting for some Billy Talent and Protest the Hero though.
there are a couple good songs but not many there is not enough metal at all
This setlist sucks horribly. So do some of you commentors[Ray(#78-81), mitch(#75)]
What do you gay pricks listen to? Pop? Shit? Your parents orgasms as they are having sex while you still live with your parents? Metal rocks. GH:Metallica just came out. I beat it. It pwned your gay-ass bands. They did leave out plenty of Metallica to use in other GH games. They should have A7X, Disturbed, Metallica, Muse, Linkin Park, AC/DC, (screw the foo fighters), and Finntroll! So many good bands, none of them are used. Muse had better play Supermassive Black Hole in this.
I think i’m just gonna stick with rock band. There is more music to download and the gameplay is better. If GH had the downloads that rock band has it might be a better choice.
come on no avenged sevenfold, slipknot, bullet for my valentine, or arch enemy. and i thin here should be more death metal in gh
so cool that 3 doors down will be on new hero they desere it .
well at least megadeth is on there, basically the same band of metallica.
no paramore!? screw you gh, im gonna go play rockband
HOLY CRAP Children Of Boddom will be in there!!!! im so geting his game when it comes out XD
this one kinda sucks. i mean they should put harder to play songs on guitar hero start making it with death metal. its all to easy i get bored playing on expert but there are some really good bands on here like iron maiden. my favorite one they made so far was gh,metallica.Hey what about Ugly Kid joe or Faith no more or how about cradle of filth.
YeSsS….Scars on Broadway is on here…..der a gr8 band…they kinda sound like soad….WOOOOO!!!!
NO GUNS N’ ROSES?! I am shocked… NO LED ZEPPELIN?! Now this is getting ridiculous and you want to put some tenacious d on there for some humour. But no guns n’ roses? By rights they should have their own game :P
stop complaining… listen crybabies the reason they dont good bands like AC/DC & Zeppelin are because some of them wont sign over the rights to any of thier songs. I really doubt there will ever be a Led Zeppelin song on any guitar hero . Lots of bands don’t like to put there stuff on there unless it’s a mastertrack beacause if you remember how much they changed ‘Devil Went Down to Georgia’. Not all bands want that… and look at My Curse on GH3. It’s moer complicated then how you guys are looking at it.
Also AC/DC & The Beatles already already signed most of their rights to rock band
wow you guys say the setlist sucks u name gay DEATH crap.. all they need is seether n some more hendrix!
I don’t really care what else they put up on this game, I’m buying it for whatever Rush song they decided to include. Really though, after GH5, Activision should quit marketing Guitar Hero games and start coming out with DLC. I mean, GH3, GHWT and now GH5 are going to have DLC. Harmonix and Rock Band are making a crapload of money, and they aren’t marketing a new game every 6 months. Learn a lesson from a formula that works, Activision, and start focusing in on improving one game instead of adding a bunch of bells and whistles and hoping that next time it’ll sell well.
WOW some of the worst comments i’ve ever read!
Please stfu! If you don’t like the setlist or your favourite band isn’t in the game don’t complain about it, dont buy the game or make your own music game if you’re so clever and think Activision sucks because your favourite song isnt in the game! Dumbf**ks!
and BTW:
Metallica… got their own game.
Led Zeppelin… dont want their songs in any gh/rb game!
Van Halen… got their own game
A7x… RB got 3 songs!
ACDC… own game -.-
Jimi Hendrix… GHWT
and so on…
and yeah some of you fags only know bands like dope or shadows fall because of gh/rb
sad…
GH:DEATHCORE or GH:HEAVY METAL
just saying it’d be fun.
The problem with adding new instruments to guitar hero is that now they have to find songs that have fun part for allllll the instruments. there is tons of great songs out there with awesome guitar or drumming but there is very little vocals, drums and bass, and vice versa .
damn they need to come out with a fucking death metal guitar hero with break downs and shit….slipkont and SOAD and distrbed and all that horse shit it BUTT Metal not metal…..but i also like the classics so ya
this is better than world tour, thats for sure. that shit sucked monkey balls. hopefully guitar hero wont keep going down the drain. i mean..come on, Weezer? this is just really starting to piss me off. How hard can it be to put REAL music on a game that thousands of people are clearly giving great recommendations to? i dont understand.
and for all u dumbfucks who think people cant express their negative opinions on the game here, get real because thats what the damn comment box is here for. everybody isnt gonna be happy-go-lucky about it. Deal.
What people have to understand is that Guitar Hero isnt what it was anymore. When the original game came out it was aimed at rock fans wanting to replicate the guitar experience on a console, and so it continued building through 2 and 3. Thing is, to compete in a market where Rock Band was gaining through use of multiple instruments, Guitar Hero had to change. So people moaning about the lack of deathcore tracks may want to remember the fact these songs have to be played on a plastic drum kit and sung using a singstar-esque microphone and software, it’s on the most part unfeasible.
To sum up, GH is mainstream now, everyone knows what it is, and it’s target audience isn’t just rock fans anymore, it wants to cater for everyone, from children to women and also not upset the original fans (hence tracks from megadeth and The Sword for instance still being on there). I admit, as a metal fan and a GH fan right from the start, it is a little upsetting not being tested like we were in 3, but you have to respect that sales matter more to Activision than a few people whinging on a forum.
Ps. If you want a great setlist with drum and microphone support, pick up GH: Greatest Hits, it has the majority of the best tracks all collected on one disc. It’s pretty awesome not having to mess about swapping discs and having drum support.
god im tired of this garbage music. so boring. i swear im not buyin a gh game until theres disturbed and lots of it. and no metallica isnt the same thing.
RAMMSTEIN YES YES YES
hmm, fail list me thinks, i know what Schabe means but i would have thought guitar hero should focus on the original fans that made it what it is today rather than changing the genres completely, world tour sucked, this game looks good, artists don’t really look to good, but i will most probably still buy it, if not i shall wait to a guitar hero with METAL :)
ppl say to much pop…there isnt much in it…more classic rock and rock…needs more metal tho…im happy bout COB and megadeth tho
NO FOO FIGHTERS ?
You guys really need more hard rock and metal especially Avenged Sevenfold Disturbed and AcDc
Seriously…. no foo fighters, or metallica…… what the hell?! This is their worst setlist
WTF? No paramore? i kinda got used to the bands songs on guitar hero and rock band.And now that i think about it… i know the next big thing…. GUITAR HERO 6-
DRAGONFORCE
OH YEAH, AND THE SETLIST IS OK TOO. needs byob again though. and some trhee doors down……and three days grace.
my bad i meant system of a down again.
NICE !
The Killers, Muse, White Stripes, Coldplay and Weezer in 1 game !
hmm its an ok setlist, actually kinda good… but…
IT NEEDS MOAR METAL!! >:( A7X!!! BAT COUNTRY god dammit.. i dont know! theres plenty of metal bands and more awesome rock bands to choose from!! >:(
this is GUITAR hero god dammit… its cool with the drums and everythin else… but how about some more challenging guitar songs??
and to that ray guy and all of you who said ‘fuck metal’ i say, STFU and take metal up your ass! you bunch of pathetic excuses for wussies…
and p.s. i DO hear every type of rock, EVEN indie, but you just cant diss metal..
I’m with metal head on this one I think their should be more metal and less emo music because if you actually took the time to listen to one of disturbed or slipknot songs etc etc you’ll see that they do produce good music and it doesn’t make anyone want to cut them self I think it makes them do the opposite. Plus it would be awsome to play metal songs because their so freakin tricky and fun to play and you can just get into the music and the game more. Think About it.
I think it looks like a good setlist. But They’ve been saying they’d put Eve 6 on and I dont see any. Oh well. I’ll buy this game for sure
and they should have some sick puppies
seriously! i want to see some SOAD! Sugar should be in this game! it’s my fave SOAD song and I mastered it on real guitar in 30 minutes! :) I did enjoy guitar hero Metallica, and i can see why they didnt put it in there (bcause their own game was released) but, honestly, I’d luv to see ride the lightning, harvester of sorrow, st. anger, ,,,and justice for all, and blackened in a future game such as band hero. and and I’m afraid to ask, why the hell is there gonna be a friggin DJ hero. like rap hasnt taken over the world ENOUGH?! people these days and their tastes in music
Wow. Most of the people buying guitar hero games are metal fans? I’m working at gamestop and I can assure you that there’s definately an all-around fanbase for this game. Guitar Hero’s not a guitar game anymore; it’s a band game! Most of people absolutely hate those metal songs when they’re band-playing.. so I guess that setlist’s there to please every ”band-member”. Plus they’ve got an Arctic Monkeys song! <3
Anyways, stop complaining that there’s no metallica! They’ve just had their own guitar hero, and some of their other songs are featured in rock band! And.. hummm… I don’t see that much of emo songs?! There’s like, 2 ”emo” bands?! But I agree that there’s a lot of indie… but there’s never been that much indie in any guitar hero game. And, what’s with all that ”There’s no AC DC songs” whining? I don’t think they’ll sell their songs to Guitar Hero because they already have their very own rock band. Unless you’re on Wii… just get the damn game.
I don’t think it’s that bad. It’s even alright… but it doesn’t look like a Guitar Hero setlist… It’s more like Rock Band Downloadable Content stuff. Rock Band’s better than Guitar Hero anyways.
to all u idiots sayin s***t about soad, go F urselves with a donkeys hind legs or somet
there is some bodom an rammstein on there, we can thank that much the rest of the pop an rock wannabes shud piss off to singstar or w/e an we dont want emo bands either, cant we jus have proper music e.g.
more iron maiden, disturbed, dragonforce, TRIVIUM, more a7x, more slipknot, katatonia, more shadows fall, CRADLE OF FILTH, deathstars, more slayer, more lamb of god, some scorpions an KORPIKLAANI xD, heck even the darkness if u skip the singin out, some skillet maybe? drowning pool? put trogdor back on!!! 69 eyes, wednesday 13, nightwish, within temptation, lacuna coil, arch enemy, more dream theatre, more machine head, more motorhead, caliban, seether, lost prophets older stuff (fake sound of progress album) cant think of more >.<
an to white stripes: WHY?!?!?!? seven nation army must be one of the most repetitive songs ever an their other songs arent any better
an if u want pop an rap on it, then jus use MUTE an put every song on, then put guitar down an perfect every song on expert without doin anythin -.-
The only artist that truely matters is Bon Jovi….WOOOOAAAAAHHHH WERE HALF WAY THERE WOOOOOAAAHHH LIVIN ON A PRAYER!!!
thy should really just cut the bullshitty songs and put in what people actually want and that is rock/metal nobody wants to play a crappyass song frm wheezer since it s not even challenging or fun to play…………..they have to dedicate a guitar hero specificall to rock and metal i dont know name it metal reolution or metal meltdown just something catcy and something trhat will actually sell not be left at crappy ass walmart sitting on the shelves for a whole year
Com on for all i care you can throw out all of the crap bands of today like three days grace, subline, wheezer, 3 doors down and all of these other bands no one has never heard of. Put more of the classic 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s bands in while they are still alive and can have thier fame on guitar hero. They did put some bands on that they seem to always pass over like dire straits, Grand funk railroad and david bowie! Finally! When did Johnny Cash and Stevie Wonder become rock or metal? Guitar Hero is going down the tubes. Can they ever put the only 2000’s band that is good on the game, Green Day! Last, Millions of people can back me up on this. The classic rock bands are will always be the masters of the real ROCK. Get rid of the Modern thing you dorks call “rock”!!!
I have to agree, this setlist is pretty, actually reallly crappy. I don’t like half the stuff. Sublime, APC and Muse caught my interest a little bit. But I mean come on! They just ruined GH when they added vocals and singing. GH 1, 2, 3, 80’s and Metallica were their best. World Tour seemed cool but the only songs I actually enjoyed were the Tool songs and Scream Aim Fire and SOAD, other then that it was all just this punk, pop crap. They need to have more hard rock like Slipknot, Disturbed, Incubus, All That Remains, Atreyu, NIN, Avenged Sevenfold and some of Coheed and Cambria’s good songs like Feathers, A Favor House Atlantic, No World For Tomorrow, and Justice in Murder. I need some songs that will actually give me a challenge, none of this note repeating crap that all this punk stuff they have now have. I liked GH when I actually enjoyed playing almost every song. Now I see the setlist and I just get mad at how much GH is getting ruined. This one is going to be a very big disappointment cuz most people I know buy the game for two reasons. One actual GOOD songs and two a challenge. As far as I can see this one is going to be as easy to beat as World Tour was.
I also think that some people on here should really think before they comment, cuz some of the stuff your saying is down right annoying and stupid. Most the people that are complaining are hard rock/metal fans, so to all of you saying that a GH with only metal and hard rock songs would fail. If you haven’t notice, most the people complaining about this setlist are hard/metal fans that want a GH with only metal and hard rock on it. So I think a GH like that would be a big success, cuz not only would it get all the us hard rock/metal fans buying it but it would also get all the people would a challenge, so I think they should really consider making a GH: metal/hard rock edition, that would be kick ass!
Wow “supa kool guy” just because you only
know TWO! System of a Down songs like B.Y.O.B
and Chop Suey doesn’t mean tht all of their
other music sucks…. Just because you don’t like
any of their music outside of guitar hero 4 and
Rock Band 2 does not mean their music is bad
you stupid douche bag
What about some Queensryche. Then guitar riffs on their music are just awesome!!!!
“JetCity Woman” or “I Don’t Belive In Love” or a dozen of there other hits, I mean come on………………..
Soad sucks balls but yes more metal lamb of god slayer megadeth and black sabbath pop sucks so bad
Also by slayer should be next that would be a fun as game but no VAN HALEN I only like 3 songs from them come on why? They need to listen to the fans for the next guitar hero game next month :)
Guitar Hero is acting like MTV, I thought “Guitar” Hero was suppose to be about shredding solo’s? I am glad to see they finally put Darkest Hour on a song, and thank god no Faggotforce is on it either.
These bands suck! I’m sure i will NOT buy this one. Fifty bucks or more for this? I rather just keep that money for my next guitar or a mixer. I bet the makers of guitar hero are just normal fans of the bands. I bet they aren’t even in a band or can play a Rock instrument. They are just “wanna bes”. I’m sick of stupid people who think they know rock. Please comment if you argee.
it’s setlists like these that made me switch over to rock band…it has waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better songs (including most of the ones people are complaining about not being in guitar hero) and the overall gameplay is just better. i hate the guitar though, i still have to use my guitar hero one. but seriously people, you dont have to put up with this, just make the switch to rock band and actually enjoy the songs you’re playing.
No Foo Fighters? No Metallica? No Aerosmith? this game will really suck ya know? no sence at all, what made GH3 so good? the SETLIST and this game’s suck. any idiot whould have done something better
am i the only one looking forward to this game? its got lots of good songs on. and no im not an emo. they have to cater for lots of different genres, and all you metal heads, youve got gh: metallica to play. i actually like the setlist. pity long road to ruin isnt on though.. may have to buy rockband and download it :/
ps metal heads, not everyone is as good at gh as you, so players can now have fun playing EASIER songs instead of breaking their hands at something like “i wasted my life and now im going to jump off a cliff.. ROOOOAAARR” which would be F*****G HARD TO SING. end rant.
This setlist is kinda a little screwed up. I mean come on you can put Scars on broadway in but you cant put in System of a down or even Serj Tankian? There also isnt disturbed…they should be more metal and heavy metal…only old people listen to this classic stuff…the younger generations listen to pretty much either rap and hip hop or metal and hard rock. hopefully the next game will be heavier.
Does anybody know whether you can use the guitars and drums from World Tour for Guitar hero 5?
This game sucks big hairy juicy boobish tittielicious monkey hair meat motherfucking lint bawls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WTF we need some good shit!!! rock band 1 has better trax then this pile of horseshit (exept gorillaz and nirvana)PUT IN cheap trick bloc party MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE!!!! boston and foo fighterz the creators must have been on crack putting the songs in.
wow this sucks ever since gh 3 the setlists have been just going downhill, this one is the worst yet
WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!! everyone needs to stop being so fuckin retarded about genre exclusive guitar heros. How about a guitar hero with a good balance of good songs from different genre’s granted I love metal but there is some shit that is actually good besides that. This is a horrible guitar hero mainly because it was made for 8 year olds who fail on beginner and old fuckers that are trying to be cool that can’t get the game started up in the first place cause they don’t know how to turn the fuckin system on (and if they do they have a stroke before the first loading screen pops up). Even though there are some great bands on here (Smashing Pumpkins, Megadeath, Iron Maiden, Children of Bodom, Sublime, The Crue, Rush, Queens of the Stoneage, Rammstein, and Johnny Cash) what happened to the guitar heros that had songs that people who actually could play the game enjoyed. Seriously, ever since Neversoft stepped in (excluding Gh3) all of the guitar heros have been shit. Theres a reason why everyone is still asking for Metallica and shit like that. Its because no one wants this band exclusive bullshit knock-offs that they sell every six months. Its a waste of money to fuckin get a game with one band on it. That goes for Rockband Beatles too. Why can’t they have some good shit like Pink Floyd, All That Remains, more/better Black Sabbath, more Tool (Jambi would be great), better Social Distortion not this Story of My Life shit, Slipknot, Dream Theater (preferably Honor Thy Father), Pearl Jam (Black would be nice), better Rise Against (like State of the Union), some Bob Marely the list goes on and on. At least have stuff that isn’t just chords and chords over and over. I learned how to play all the songs on world tour on real guitar before I learned how to play all of them on expert (they’re that easy) and add on the fact I’ve been playing Guitar Hero on expert before I even picked up a guitar for the first time. We all know that Children of Bodom and Rammstein are both going to have the two most absolute hardest songs in the game hands down. I mean I’d be fine if there was indie rock on it but not all indie rock. And for the record System of a Down has had way more then one or two good songs (Toxicity, Cigaro, Aerials, BYOB, Chop Suey, and Mesmorize are all great songs). Without a doubt this is even worse then World Tour at least World Tour had some variety/difficulty to it. This one will probly take me a day or less to be able to beat everything on every instrument. Thats all I have to say about the game.
p.s. If you like this game your an old emo faggot who slits there wrists while they listen to Bob Dylan shoving a dildo up his ass.
P.s.s. THIS IS BULLSHIT I HAVE TO PLAY ROCKBAND 2 FOR ANOTHER YEAR BEFORE ANYTHING HOPEFULLY GOOD COMES OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would love for some Slipknot to be on GH5 like Pyschosocial, Left Behind & Duality how good would that be! and some Metallica just to mix it up a bit like Battery & Enter sandman unless u can upload those songs to GH5? tbh there shud be alot more heavy metal bands like Killswitch or Slipknot :/
put paper wings-rise against and shinbone alley/hard to exist-spin doctors and ill be happy
just to say blocparty were in gh3 with helicopter
Ya… i think more Michael Jackson would be great. and they should make a pad you put on the floor like DDR that you can dance while you sing and grab your crotch as you hit the high notes. That would be great! Live on Michael!! we know you are not dead!
Why isnt there any Faber Drive or The Veer Union !?!?!?!?!?!? maybe their not big enough ?? but still thats pretty gay …
am i the only person around here to thinks this is the best setlist ever? it’s about time guitar hero gives credit to the little bands who have heavenly guitar riffs. i’m looking forward to this game more than the others.
Too much indie crap on this setlist. If I were to get this game it would only be for CoB, Muse and Gorrilaz. 3 songs just isn’t worth it, so I won’t be getting this or any other future game that lacks the proper dose of metal that the original fans (the people that made GH famous) need! I don’t really feel like buying another drum set, guitar and game just to play songs that are on Rock Band either. As if one drum set doesn’t take up enough room anyway!
Needs more of this:
Lamb Of God, Machine Head, Slayer, Chimaira, SOAD, Winds Of Plague, Disturbed, All Shall Perish, Gojira, Dragonforce, Trivium, Dimmu Borgir, Tenacious D and Mors Principium, you know…bands with more than an ounce of skill between them. Death metal is one of the hardest genres of music to play on both drums and guitar, so why are Activion ignoring it?! GH3 was made famous by how hard the songs were, like Through The Fire And Flames. I’m dissapointed that Dragonforce have been forgotten since they practically made GH3 what it was.
In my opinion, GH:Metallica was good except for one or two songs which were repetitive as hell (both weren’t metal songs, SURPRISE!). Soft rock, pop and indie are all obsolete when it comes to guitar playing because it’s just not fucking fun, it’s all the same chords the entire song which gets old very fast.
Fuck I’d buy two copies of a GH game that had all the bands I mentioned above. They should bring one out called GH:Ultimate Gamer Edition or Metal Uncensored WITHOUT EDITING OUT THE SWEARING! That’s like editing fucking Shakespeare ffs. All game developers want these days is the maximum amount of turnover, so they aim all the content at the mainstream population. I mean, just look at the Wii’s game list, all kid’s games, it forces the parents to buy it. It feels like gaming is losing its edge, it’s not for teenage boys anymore, sadly.
