The Killers DLC hitting GHWT on Nov. 25

by Alexander Sliwinski { Nov 14th 2008 at 12:50PM }

Actilizzard announced today that three songs from The Killers will be available on Guitar Hero World Tour starting Tuesday, Nov. 25. Two of the tracks are from the group's upcoming album, Day & Age: "Human" and "Losing Touch." The third song is "Mr. Brightside" from their breakout album, Hot Fuss. The tracks can be purchased as a pack for $5.50 (440

) or individually at $2 (160

).

The PSN update will occur on Tuesday due to the Thanksgiving holiday, so that's why the tracks will be available for the PS3 on Nov. 25. Typically, the store updates on Thursdays.

DO NOT WANT. Give me more Hendrix DLC, or some Doors or Tool would be nice.

Dr. @ Nov 14th 2008 1:12PM

It's good to see they've got the right idea this time. Constant DLC at the accepted price.

oolz @ Nov 14th 2008 1:15PM

Not nearly as cool as the just announced 10 pack for rock Band next week.

Dead Kennedy's, lacuna coil, mission of burma, In this moment and crooked X.

nice try though..

wgasa?

oolz @ Nov 14th 2008 1:48PM

you replied... so...you.. obviously..

Neebs @ Nov 14th 2008 2:44PM

Quality > Quantity.
I'd rather have this pack than all the songs out for RB this week.

Kyera @ Nov 14th 2008 3:00PM

And, interestingly enough, using quality as the important metric, I would prefer to see the RB DLC.

Not that the Killers are bad (I quite like 'em), but I prefer some Dead Kennedys.

I'm glad and happy that Guitar Hero is actually working to keep up with DLC, but I really really really dislike the game's interface.

Great DLC tracks to choose though, coming from a Killers fan. If this was on Rock Band I would buy it in a heartbeat, but I might have to think twice before I get it on World Tour at my friend's house...

BrennaCeDria @ Nov 14th 2008 11:16PM

I have to agree with Neebs. I'm sure the songs coming to Rock Band this week are just fine, but I've been wanting more Killers on Rock Band since I first got the game, and now with it going to GH I can probably just give up on that dream. :( Mr. Brightside is one of the songs I wanted most, but not so much as All These Things That I've Done. GOD that song would be awesome. :(

M @ Nov 14th 2008 1:27PM

I demand that all video game journalists refer to the company as Actilizzard from this point forward.

Foetoid @ Nov 14th 2008 8:22PM

It's all wrong. It sounds like some sort of active lizzard. Actiblizzion sounds like what its meant to be.

Silent @ Nov 14th 2008 1:29PM

OK i guess, but the only killers song that matters is 'All These Things That I've Done'.

dutyman40kk @ Nov 14th 2008 3:37PM

Are you kidding me?
The good songs by the killers are "mr. brightside", "human", "when you were young" and "somebody told me". All the thing we've done is probably one of their worst

Jim Halpert DM @ Nov 14th 2008 2:39PM

The only song that matters? I mean that's one I'd love to play, but give the Killers some credit....

#28 @ Nov 14th 2008 5:40PM

Dutyman, are you kidding me? You're basically lauding praise over songs that make no fucking sense. "Are we human? Or are we dancer?" Does that make any sense to anyone? While you ponder that, I encourage you to find some other, better music.

Jim Halpert DM @ Nov 14th 2008 6:31PM

"Are we human or are we dancer" references a quote made by Hunter S. Thompson in which he states that America is raising a generation of dancers.

kellydude025 @ Nov 14th 2008 8:29PM

I like almost all of the killers tracks off of all of their albums including their EP Sawdust.

Too bad i am a rockband 2 fanboy and dont want to cough up the money for GHWT

BrennaCeDria @ Nov 14th 2008 11:17PM

Now, now, don't discount the majority of Hot Fuss. I agree that All These Things That I've Done is my favorite Killers song, period, and the one I'm most disappointed to not have, but both Mr. Brightside and Somebody Told me, in particular, are great songs.

seanemac007 @ Nov 14th 2008 2:11PM

Another great band that backed the wrong horse. Rock Band 2 is where its at. They are everything good about 80s rock, without the bad haircuts and a better wardrobe.

Now just give me my keyboard-guitar controller and my "I Love The 80s" track-pack (Frankie Goes To Hollywood, A-ha, Pet Shop Boys)!

Chase @ Nov 14th 2008 4:11PM

Amen.

Miles @ Nov 14th 2008 2:15PM

I'm so pissed this isn't on RB2. Not to say it won't be though.

Neebs @ Nov 14th 2008 2:28PM

Fuck! Why can't this be on RB2!?

Jim Halpert DM @ Nov 14th 2008 2:38PM

I just decided which bundle I'm buying. Killers FTW!!
(Of course I'll get the Rock Band 2 disc.)

Phoenix @ Nov 14th 2008 2:48PM

As much as I like "Human" I don't really see it as all that interesting to play.

Farseer (GDI) @ Nov 14th 2008 3:16PM

So... how does one obtain the electronic beat machine to lay down the baseline in 'Human'?

ooh cha ooh cha ooh cha ooh cha ooh cha

Oh, and while I'm trashing that terrible song, what's going on with the lyrics here?

Are we human, or are we dancers?

I had no idea that the two were mutually exclusive.
