Guitar Hero: Metallica finally confirmed

by Sam Naylor on December 15, 2008 at 2:13 pm

Guitar Hero: Metallica has finally been confirmed, after a series of rumours about the game. The game allows players to play in some “famous settings” with 28 Metallica songs and some Alice in Chains, Foo Fighters, Slayer, Machine Head and Queen ones, too. Also featured is “an all new Expert+ difficulty setting featuring two bass drum kick pedals.” Seems, well, difficult (if One on GHIII is anything to go by). The game is set for release in the first half of 2009, although there is no word on which consoles yet.

    Why do they have to make a million fucking versions of guitar hero? Couldn’t they have just released a Metallica pack for GT:WT? Greedy bastards. If I ever buy a music game it’s going to be rock band.

    I’d just like to point out something- this makes 12 Guitar Hero games that Activision will have released as of January 1st, 2010. Twelve. In 2.5 years.

    I’d like Guitar Hero a lot more if it was better and called Rock Band.

    Yeah, I’m getting Rock Band. It has way more polish than these quick churn-outs from Activision.

    Yeah, I’ve played the World Tour and while there are things that I like about it (extended drum note type deals being one that really sticks out), overall I’d have to say the game sucks ass compared to Rock Band. Even if that wasn’t the case, the simple fact is that I can still play all the DLC music and the songs from the original Rock Band in Rock Band 2. I just don’t see how Actithieving can justify all these different versions of the same game that aren’t compatible in any way. It’s fucking crazy. Who do they think they are, Electronic Arts?

    This is so badly a photoshop job; you can tell it is because the shadows are all wrong. Oh, and the fact that his fingers have managed to creep under the buttons. I mean, yeah, his hands are small, as you said, but are they really THAT small?!
