Guitar Hero: World Tour gets lots more Pumpkins to Smash

by Majed Athab on Sep 2nd 2008 12:30PM

Smashing Pumpkins fans will probably have an urge to smash some poor defenseless squash in delight upon hearing this news bite. Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan will appear as an in-game character on Guitar Hero: World Tour (due out this fall). He'll be bringing us back to the tunes of the early 90s with the SP hit song "Today."

In addition to the on-disc content, a Smashing Pumpkins DLC pack has already been set. Included in the DLC will be a brand new single called G.L.O.W. which will debut "exclusively in the game." Other older tracks come from differing Pumpkins eras, such as "The Everlasting Gaze" of early 2000 and "1979" of the late 90s. The three-song track pack will be available sometime after the game launches.

LOL, that pic just made my day!

it looks like billy corgan needs some help escaping from the evil, lecherous clutches of mr. rodman.

Looks like he's enjoying it...

yeah he looks like he's proud to be his girl and he don't mind showin' everybody.

Id tell rodman to get the hell off me. I swear he's bi, back in 1997 when allen iverson was a rookie in philly he patted him on the butt and iverson said to get the hell off me and they almost fought. it was the only fight iverson ever "almost" got into on the court.

Sweet. not dat i needed more incentive 2 pick up the game or anything. but have they announced the full track list 4 GHWT yet? Oh and i remember when Dennis Rodman was relevant... those were simpler times. How bout he gets added as an ingame character jk

It's "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" on GH:WT and "Today" that's on RB2... I've seen this posted incorrectly about 3 times today I swear.

No, it's Today in both games. The original press release is on Kotaku and it says it's Today.

Bullet with butterfly wings came from some article in Stuff magazine, and the accuracy of that is in question as they said the Linkin Park song was In The End which would be a. horrible for this kind of game and b. the Linkin park song has been shown to be What I've Done.

Also, they stated that the songs by Van Halen and Foo Fighters in the game were unknown but they were known at the time.

No, Mr. Rodman, Billy is not on the menu today.

Will be picking up this pack when I get the game. There are live recordings of GLOW on Youtube, for any fans out there.

Well, in Billy's defense he was arested in a chicago crack house right around when Rodman was a Bull

ah, then that gives Rodman plenty of rights to grope him. that explains it.

Im Glad! Although Today is already on RB2. It's nice to see the addition of the song with Bullets with Butterfly Wings. That and 1979!!! Definately a must get!!

Love the Pumpkins and can't wait to play their songs on Guitar Hero.
