Re: Guitar Hero: The One and Only Thread

I originally sent it in via mail (not online confirmation) and it never updated so I went through the online process last night to be sure and get a confirmation number.



If anyone needs a Guitar Hero Smash Hits XBOX 360 import code, pm me.

Wow out of both lists there is a single *new* track I would like to play, American Pie. Of course there are others I already enjoy via RB DLC. Here's hoping Lego Rock Band is a little better with the setlist.

Well, we know about 20 or so of the LEGO setlist, and it's pretty good so far. There are a couple of repeats from GH, but obviously there will be none from RB.

When I first saw the full tracklist for Band Hero, I thought it was the full tracklist for LEGO. I got excited for Bosstones, but then I noticed all the songs that were already available in RB and realized my mistake.

I'm sure that there will be two Bosstones songs in the future to make them into a "Challenge" like they've done with so many other on-disc artists (Alanis, Steely Dan, Dinosaur Jr., etc.).

If I do pick up Band Hero, it'll be for my 6 year old daughter... She loves Taylor Swift (there is a "no fail" mode, right?).

Re: Guitar Hero: The One and Only Thread

I want Big Country, Airborne Toxic Event and the Kooks. Not enough to get sucked into another Activision money grab. GH5 was fine because I feel like I paid $25 for it ($25 for GH5 / $25 for GHVH). I can live with that because I know I'm getting a crapload of VH tracks I've never seen before.

Still, I would have considered tossing down some bones to have some ATE -- but there's some real garbage on that list... and I'm not looking at anyone in particular here, but "Sugar, We're Going Down" is definitely part of it. It pales in comparison to Jesse McCartney, however.

Me too, I generally like some of Fallout Boy's songs Obviously most of these songs and artists don't match the audience here at DVDTalk

Re: Guitar Hero: The One and Only Thread

So far I am only interested in Taylor Swift, Yellowcard, The Kooks and Sugar We're going Down... everything else even remotely interesting to me is already in Rock Band....definitely see this one as a rental.

Rock Band needs American Pie, Frampton, and Mellencamp.

More like an "all fail" mode IMO.

Re: Guitar Hero: The One and Only Thread

AFAIK, it's always been October first. Purchase by 10/1 submit by 10/31. It's in the fine print at the bottom.

Looks like people are starting to receive GH:VH.



Also, the drum solo intro to Painkiller has been removed.

I hate to be that guy that complains about something free...but it would have been appreciated if they would have at least sent some artwork that could fit in a regular case.
