What are you doing Fernando, your equation is wrong, should be like this:
Steve Vai + Halo Theme + Guitar Hero + Free = Fucking Amazing!
Meh, I don't like the 360, nor Halo, but damn, I love the Halo soundtrack, I use that theme as inspirational, for me, its up there with "The Final Countdown"....lol

I don't sell my videogames. Never. Even if they suck so badly, I do't sell my games.

That's the spirit boyo! Unless of course, you buy a game that looks nice but in the end sucks. *cough*sorrylair*cough*
Of course, what I said isn't meant to you that is.
Sadly I don't have GHIII yet, and I wanted to try this song so badly, as Steve Vai gives songs a nice fretwork. Sigh...

So you don't sell your games, even if they suck (IYO) and you could use the money to instead buy a good game?
Wow. Good strategy.

That's great man. Never sell your games or systems. To this day, I regret selling my NES and Sega Genesis. I managed to buy another Genesis and all the games I used to have (plus more), but I haven't managed to get my NES collection back (Bionic Commando!!!). There's really no point in giving up a game, just to get $5 towards the next game. If you have any sort of job whatsoever, the money you make by selling your old games and systems is insignificant.

Hi guys.
Sorry, this has nothing to do with Halo or Guitar Hero. But this question is killing me and I want an answer. Anybody with Rock Band, are all songs unlocked when you play Band Quick Play? Or is it like Guitar Hero where you have to play through the career before you can play all the songs in Quick Play?
Thanks guys. I promise that in the future I will only post comments that pertain to the story.

Since nobody answered yet, I will. Yes, it seems that you have to unlock them through campaign. I have no idea what's in the game (don't care to look at lists), and wanted to hear what's in the game, but I have to PLAY through it first.

Yeah, and it sucks that if you do Band World Tour, you have to have the same profiles signed in every time or else it won't let you continue that campaign. There's still about 20 songs that I haven't unlocked yet so I'll probably have to start a solo campaign just to do them. All I want to do is play goddamn Epic! Is that too much to ask?

Not only that, large portions appear to be faked. If you miss a note or those long strings (forgot what they're called), the guitar is supposed to cut off. In the video, whenever something is missed, the guitar plays on as if perfect.

The reason the notes don't cut out it that it was (most probably) played on Frets of Fire, with the GHII disc.
Because the song is not 'sliced' it plays regardless of what notes you hit.

The video above is from a hacked version of Guitar Hero II, not from the upcoming/free song.

*people* generally say Indian, but Native American is considered the "correct" term so it's the one used in print or school or whatever... although my 5th grade teacher literally every time would say "then the Algonquin indians - i mean native americans - met with the blahblah indians - i mean native americans -..." and literally say indians first and then correct herself EVERY TIME.
personally i don't think it matters which is which, as long as people know who you're talking about... like saying Holland, Netherlands, or the dutch... but some people get offended unless you say native american

That's exactly what I was wondering. I'm hoping they mean "starting tomorrow" but the way they wrote the article makes it sound sort of like it's only tomorrow. Can someone please clarify this for those of us going out of town on vacation?

Yeeah, maybe because Halo is an MS exclusive property? Why would they release the music for a competitor's system?
