How can there be such a huge list and yet it only has 5-6 songs I would care about?

@Gib

Really? I'm not a Guitar Hero fan either, but I have to give them credit for the great track list they have going. There's a lot more than 5 or 6 songs I'm excited to play.

@Gib I completely agree, I used to be all guitar hero but now.. -.- unimpressed..

@Gib I'm no fan of GH, but there's more than 5 songs. However a lot of them will be in RB3, or are already in previous RB games/DLC...

* Alice Cooper -- "No More Mr. Nice Guy"
* Black Sabbath -- "Children of the Grave"
* Blue Oyster Cult -- "Burnin' For You"
* Bush -- "Machinehead"
* Deep Purple -- "Burn"
* Dire Straits -- "Money For Nothing"
* Foreigner -- "Feels Like the First Time"
* Jethro Tull -- "Aqualung"
* Nine Inch Nails -- "Wish"
* Queen -- "Bohemian Rhapsody"
* Rush -- "2112"
* Stone Temple Pilots -- "Interstate Love Song"
* Styx -- "Renegade"
* The Cure -- "Fascination Street"
* The Rolling Stones -- "Stray Cat Blues"
* The White Stripes -- "Seven Nation Army"
* Them Crooked Vultures -- "Scumbag Blues"

@Gib Cuz its guitar hero lol

@ Mywhitenoise, Which games were these? A few of them are not coming up for me.

@oggsy92 Your list is flawed the only ones that ARE on RB already are:

* Foreigner -- "Feels Like the First Time"
* Jethro Tull -- "Aqualung"
* Queen -- "Bohemian Rhapsody"
* Stone Temple Pilots -- "Interstate Love Song"
* Styx -- "Renegade"
* The White Stripes -- "Seven Nation Army"

The following are NOT in Rock Band...yet.

* Alice Cooper -- "No More Mr. Nice Guy"
* Black Sabbath -- "Children of the Grave"
* Blue Oyster Cult -- "Burnin' For You"
* Bush -- "Machinehead"
* Deep Purple -- "Burn"
* Dire Straits -- "Money For Nothing"
* Nine Inch Nails -- "Wish"
* Rush -- "2112"
* The Cure -- "Fascination Street"
* The Rolling Stones -- "Stray Cat Blues"
* Them Crooked Vultures -- "Scumbag Blues"

@mywhitenoise I may be arguing a point you were not making though so if that be the case I apologize. These are the songs GHWOR has in common with RB. So Far...

Avenged Sevenfold -- "Bat Country"
Drowning Pool -- "Bodies"
Foo Fighters -- "No Way Back"
Foreigner -- "Feels Like the First Time"
Jethro Tull -- "Aqualung"
The Hives -- "Tick Tock Boom"
The Offspring -- "Self Esteem"
Queen -- "Bohemian Rhapsody"
Rise Against -- "Savior"
Slipknot -- "Psychosocial"
Stone Temple Pilots -- "Interstate Love Song"
Styx -- "Renegade"
The White Stripes -- "Seven Nation Army"

I know I'm uncultured, but I feel like I should be familiar with more than just Bohemian Rhapsody and Sharp Dressed Man.

@Ranus Studios You obviously don't listen to rock music, and therefore this version of Guitar Hero isn't aimed at you.

@Yousty

Can't say I disagree. It's just a little jarring for me personally because I followed GH like a fiend through GH3 and was always excited by the set list. At first the thought crossed my mind that they were running out of good songs, but then I thought about it and realized that maybe this one is aimed at full-on fans of the bands listed. I'd bet that I'd like a lot of these songs if I actually threw down for the game.

@Ranus Studios Cultured? It's mostly mainstream rock and classic rock throwbacks. Far from what I would considered "cultured" in the first place.
Is "pop-cultured" a term?

@Dustbink popular culture is an oxymoron. Culture is generally something enduring, not something that changes at a moment's notice. But I like the setlist so far.

@Ranus Studios I felt that way about some of the music on Guitar Hero 5. I hadn't heard of quite a bit of it but there were some real gems in there. But it did too much much to try to appeal to the current mainstream sensibilities, and the set list suffered tremendously because of it. There wasn't enough going on to make me say I HAVE TO PLAY THIS. Interest in the title fell off after the first play through.

Why has there only been one The Doors song in 457,000 Guitar Hero/Rock Band games?

@sorryfsu

We're getting "Break on through" on RB3.....

@sorryfsu And because you need a keyboard to play quite a few of The Doors songs. I mean really, can you play "Light My Fire" w/o a keyboard? Imagine that song without it's signature keyboard riff. It wouldn't be the same at all. I bet you'll see quite a few The Doors songs in RB3 now.

You forgot "Holy wars" and "This day we fight!" by Megadeth

@Apollo26

And
John 5 - Black Widow of La Porte

I'm not a huge fan of the Guitar Hero franchise, but I'll have to pick this up as a rental just to see if I can beat all 7 parts of 2112 on drums continuously.

@pokemon guy Neil Peart - eat your heart out!

There is a poll at musicradar.com about the best drummer of the last 25 years. Let your voice be heard!

# Nine Inch Nails -- "Wish"

!

Free Ride will be so much fun.

"No Way Back" is a great song.

Styx, Foreigner, Steve Vai, Dethklok, Queen and Rush. A lot of songs I can listen to for hours on end! Day one for sure.

I will buy this just so I can play Uprising by Muse.

The last Guitar Hero game I bought was Guitar Hero 2, but this track list is looking pretty, dare I say, "rock" solid. I'm in. Not too shabby!

I'm pumped to scream out "FLOOOOOOOR!" during Bodies, haha.

@Uncle Jesse
You can play Bodies on Rock Band as DLC from the RBN

@Uncle Jesse
ugh...Come on Jesse, "Bodies"? Really!? I'd expect more out of a former Ripper.

@Uncle Jesse

It's so gloriously, cheesy! And let's be honest... so am I.

I didn't know it was on RBN. Nice. Thanks for the info.

@Uncle Jesse

That song is beyond terrible. What a no-talent band that was. Thank goodness they're not around anymore.

@whylekat

They came out with a new album a couple months ago...
Certainly ARE still around, although their old singer was much better.

@Uncle Jesse

Did you not know that the original lead singer died?

@Uncle Jesse

Sure I did, and then they had to go and get Soil's old singer for their new albums. DP became a lot worse and Soil became a lot better after that.

WOW what a terrible track list!! It's like they got someone who isn't into metal at all and asked them to pick their favorite metal songs.

@whylekat EXACTLY

@whylekat

That's probably because this is 'Warriors of Rock'... not metal.

@uncle Jesse

Well majority of the bands on the list are metal bands. Soo I don't care what the game is called. These are some terrible metal songs. The actual talented bands on their have way better songs to use. So f this game!

Have to admit this doesn't really grab me. A lot of left-field choices of songs and a lot of the ones that look like they would be fun are already on Rock Band. Other things like it being warriors of rock and having an ott metal storyline and then stuffing fall out boy and mcr seems like a strange choice. I like both those groups but surely sticking to the same style as the storyline would have been a better idea. The series needs to focus on just guitars and be the best guitar game there is and focus on songs that are cool to play on guitar. They won't of course, they want to appeal to as many people as possible and generally end up satisfying none. Shame since GH2 and to some extent GH3 were brilliant.

@gloomcookie

This is like the radio friendly metalish game. Most of these songs are terrible.

omg you're saying that old terrible no talent singer was BETTER then whatever hack they have now?! Geez what a waste of music.

@whylekat

Yea... That's exactly what I'm saying... Get over it!

Have to say I'm liking this list so far... 5FDP, COB, NIN, Slipknot, Rammstein...

CAN'T COMPLAIN!

But Rock Band 3 looks a lot better still.

Sorry Guitar Hero, my money is going to Rock Band 3.

I'm happy to see Them Crooked Vultures creeping onto music games this year. I'd love to see some Coheed on here. Great guitarsmanship.

Motivation such an aggravation...

No one? :(

To bad activision sucks at changing things up with their franchises. Lets take a look at another series that hasnt changed for the good. Tony hawk pro skater. So if we look at Guitar Hero Vs Rock Band, its like Tony Hawk Vs Skate, skate learns from their mistakes, and tony keeps hoping for ignorance. Rock band fixes its issues are creates new greatness. Guitar hero gives us humans mixed with animal. Not sure its the best business move. Oh yeah and I counted 6 songs that are on here and I would like to play.. but I will wait for the Rockband version.

Only band that really stands out on this is The Cure. Maybe Bad Brains but mostly The Cure.

Am I the only one that's not a fan of playing the 'Live' versions of songs?

I like RB3's setlist much more.

I was going to buy Rock Band 3 until I saw 2112 by Rush. Unless RB3 gets 2112 than I'll have to buy both. And I don;t really want to buy both.
