We hope you weren't excited by the supposed Guitar Hero World Tour set list that was 'leaked' yesterday. Activision and Red Octane have made it known that the list, which included artists like Tool and The Doors, is a fake. A representative informed Game Informer (see what we did there?) that while some of the songs on the list will make it into the game, namely Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher," the majority of the list is "wishful thinking and pure speculation."
But hey, we know it will have "Hot for Teacher," right? That counts for something. Now all we have to do is get Activision to confirm the rest of the set list ... one song at a time.

Thats a relief actually, I wasnt too keen on the list, except for most of the bonus songs and a few others.

Next X360 Headline:
RUMOR: Rumor of GH World Tour set list Rumor is a Rumor.
Seriously, enough with the stupid "rumor" posts. If there's an update just update the original post. Do you guys get paid based on number of posts a day and you're running a little short today? Ever since E3 wrapped up it seems to have gotten a little thin on news here at X3F. I love the site but stop trying to fill a post quota or at list fill it with something other than this drivel.

That was the best setlist I had ever seen a game ship with.
There goes my purchase.

So you base your decision to buy this game on a rumored, uncofirmed setlist, and when that RUMOR gets denied, you change your decision?
Would it not make much more sense to make your decision when the setlist is actually revealed (which will probably be within a few weeks time)?
Even though it was an amazing setlist...

Should've known! I'm glad I didn't set my hopes too high, but it would've been nice.

I didnt even read the list but when I saw the word TOOL I got excited and let down at the same time.

I don't care what game it is or who's making it, nobody would put 3 Tool songs in the main game, as an ENTIRE 'tier'.
That alone should have told you it was fake.
Also, when you make up Guitar Boss Battles, don't make the third one be a bassist. Dead giveaway.

Typical isn't it! THE best setlist I've ever seen in a music game and it's a fake.
Hope the developers are taking note of peoples' reaction to the fake setlist!

Damn. I was really hoping on that Mana song "Clavado en un Bar". Guitar Hero needs more latin rock bands.
