I haven't played it, but I'd say it's one of the best packs they've released thus far, possibly *the* best. With the full-band Guitar Hero around the corner, a track pack with songs that focus almost purely on what matters in GH3 - the guitar - is like a kind bid farewell (though I know this won't be the last pack they release).

I've got more important things to purchase right now, or else I'd consider showing my support with a purchase... even though they need more competitive pricing. Still.

Downloaded, played. Win. All three songs are pretty epic, especially Joe and Steve's. Buckethead's songs are hard, but not that great to just listen to.

Yah I found it intersting how BH's song is completely overshadowed in this pack by Satriani and Vai. Though when compared to these two guys, most of his stuff, and anyone elses, would be overshadowed.

My favorite was actually the Buckethead song but I am a HUGE Buckethead fanboy.

With an artist so diverse, you must be listening to the wrong songs.

I'm probably not listening to the best of his songs. My friends like his stuff more than I do. I do like his songs but I was speaking more specifically about the two songs that have been available by him on the Guitar Hero series of games. Compared to the Steve Vai track in this pack, which is really listenable by all kinds of people, this Buckethead song is just a little too long and possibly repetitive.

I'll consider paying for GH3 DLC just as soon as someone assures me I can play it in GHWT. Until then, forget it.

Not going to happen. The file formats are different. So unless Activision wants to go all file-compatibility-filter on us, GHIII DLC is GHIII DLC only, not for GHWT or GHA.

I believe I read somewhere on Joystiq that the GHIII songs will be playable on WT, but not the GH: Aerosmith songs.

I was kinda disappointed. I beat them all on a sightread and even 5 starred Soothsayer. It really feels like they were charted by a totally different group than did the original game, which is both good and bad. They seem oversimplified, or maybe I'm just a complete god at this game.

Well, considering that so many people bitched about charting effects (whammy, string bending, etc) during sustains (Raining Blood's Ending), it is no wonder that they didn't chart Buckethead's effects pedal. Although, I would rather see things like the effects in Soothsayer charted. Technically, that would be overcharting, though. Overall, I feel that Soothsayer was charted the worst, but it was still charted very well.

As for the For the Love of God and Surfing with the Alien charts... PERFECT. PERFECT. PERFECT.

Surfing with the Alien is my favorite song in the pack, because it is upbeat and it's the freaking Satch man!

You know what Joystiq needs? More terrifying pictures of guitar playing bucketheads. TERRIFYING.

the inclusion of drum and vocals sullies the very name of Guitar Hero

There can be no more guitar-only awesome tracks. They all have to have vocals, drums, etc.
