I'm excited! The other day my friend was saying, "Well, you may have a 360, but you don't have guitar hero."

Well now I do.

Played this at the Microsoft booth at CES today. It is a VERY good implementation -- though I wish the guitar was wireless.

The ability to play GH1 songs with the functionality of the Hammer-ons/Pull-offs from GH2 would be awesome!

I can't wait!

Feh. Why pay more for the same game?

Wow, so glad I waited. Dead! alone is worth it, not to mention future songs on the marketplace. First time I heard that song, I thought Guitar Hero.

I'm with you on Even Rats. Great song. But what do you mean by "Xbox Live will let rockers download songs from the original Guitar Hero (hope that includes the ones you can buy, like The Slip's "Even Rats")"? Does that mean that songs from the first one are free on Live and that Even Rats is not? Or does it mean I can pop in my original Guitar Hero disc and download them to the hard drive, but not Even Rats because it's on the marketplace? Confusion!!!

Man, Even Rats. Despite all the killer songs in the main game, Even Rats ended up being my favorite song, tucked away out of sight in the bonus tracks that a lot of people I know never even bothered playing. I definitely wouldn't mind paying a couple bucks to get it off the marketplace for the 360 version.

I waited and I waited - for some reason I couldn't bring myself to drop another dime into my PS2. The only temptation was Guitar Hero. All I can say is... hell yeah. Oh yeah. I'm fuckin' speachless.

Gahhh! Guitar Hero 1 songs with Guitar Hero 2's gameplay modes? ...that..is...awesome.

Too bad I don't have a 360. =[ And I just ordered a RedOctane Wireless Guitar for my PS2. Maybe someday they'll "remake" Guitar Hero for the PS2....that'd be nice. :P

People are already doing that on their PS2s, but it requires a modded PS2....

Sony needs to do anything they can to get Guitar Hero playable on PS3 before the Xbox 360 Guitar Hero is released! I cannot believe Sony released a system that can play PS2 games, but not the hottest game for the system.

A wireless guitar that works on PS3 (or even an adapter that works) for both Guitar Heroes would help Sony get a little closer to their outrageous 6 million PS3s March 07 goal.

The 360 will still have quite the advantage with Xbox Live Marketplace being so well established already. I'll have to pick me up a 360 and GH rather than spending money on an old PS2 to play it.

Nope. And the Xbox 360 has

1. Achievements
2. Better online service
3. Having both GH1 and GH2 without having to mod your console.

Oh, and Gears of War, etc. Does the PS2 have Halo 3?

My Chemical Romance? That better be a bonus track and not part of the main game, because I am never playing that POS...dang...at least they added Iron Maiden to make up for it.

OOH! Question! The Guitar Hero 1 tracks...will they be playable in Co-Op?! That'd be AWESOME!

Wow. Yet another nail in Sony's coffin, considering that the PS3 can't play GH2.

#13 Does the PS2 have Halo 3?
You know, I love it when a fanboy makes some really, really good points, and then drops a clunker. So no, obviously PS2 does not have Halo 3, but currently 360 doesn't either.
Hur, hur does teh 360 have Zelda/Mario/Grand Turismo/God of War?
No, they only come out for other consoles? Wow! News to me.
But seriously though, kudos to the 360 for improving on one of the best PS2 series.

X-box has so many things that are only for X-box
Leave Guitar Hero for PS2 ONLY!
