Rumored GH6 setlist below (pulled from the RB forums )



Few notables: Dream Theater! Queensryche! Muse! Tesla!

Other than that a lot of 'meh.

Will pass. Glad to see NoFx return, but USA-Holes is a surprising choice.

Nick Jonas fits in nicely with the rest of the setlist

Where the fuck is Skid Row in these games!?

Only about 12 songs or so I am interested in...and Live ruined a couple.

Oh yeah, where the fuck is Live!?

I thought Jimi was a Rock Band exclusive now? I call b.s.

If that setlist is true, then skipping GH6 will be extremely easy for me.

Live as in a live recording that, based on all previous GH/RB examples, will blow or for sure not sound as good as hte original.

I know what you meant. It just reminded me that that band Live has yet to make an appearance in any rhythm game (except maybe Lips?), including RBN.

I posted a list of 90's bands over on the RB forums earlier that need consideration, and you bet your ass I included Live.

Interesting Mars Volta choice...

and He Man Woman Hater!??!!!

Pass.

I wore my "Straight Outta York" t-shirt a few weeks ago, hoping to send vibes over to HMX for the weekly DLC announcement. It didn't work

Well, there's one I can wait for the clearance rack on.

I'm sure there are some on that list that are correct (outside of the already announced stuff), but I'd say it's not 100% accurate.

Some great 80s-90s tunes in there, but I'll wait for it to get$10-$15 and play it for a weekend.

Somebody from Neversoft must have seen me at the music store a few weeks ago when I bought that Enuff Z'nuff disc.

Santa Monica, CA – June 4, 2010 – This fall, living room legends and their friends will join together and embark on an epic rock journey to save rock n’ roll with Activision Publishing, Inc.’s (Nasdaq: ATVI) Guitar Hero®: Warriors of Rock. The latest installment in the world’s most popular music game series, Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, will once again redefine music gaming with an all-new, story-driven Quest Mode, a completely redesigned rock-inspired guitar controller, the biggest on-disc selection of rock music ever in a Guitar Hero® game and Quickplay+, which invites challenge-starved fanatics to test their rock skills in any of the on-disc or over 500 songs in the Guitar Hero Music Library.

Running on the powerful Guitar Hero engine that has been expanded and refined, coupled with the return of the critically-acclaimed and fan favorite features like Party Play’s jump in/jump out gameplay, a host of Competitive modes and the ability to play any combination of guitar, bass, drums and vocals, Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock offers the complete interactive and connected experience bringing friends and foes to the stage in the ultimate rock music adventure.

“Guitar Hero has set the standard for music based gaming and with Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock’s all-new Quest Mode, robust and authentic set list, over-the-top challenges and rock-inspired new hardware, we are once again bringing the soul and energy of rock n’ roll to fans around the world,” said David Haddad, Chief Operating Officer, Guitar Hero.

In Quest Mode, using any combination of instruments, players will embark on a larger-than-life, epic rock journey from the stage of CBGBs, the infamous punk-rock club in New York City, to the molten lava fields of rock treachery as eight Guitar Hero characters transform into rock warriors that must join together to use their unique, game-changing powers to help the Demi-God of Rock take down “The Beast” and save rock n’ roll.

"The world is a boring place. Come with me, and enter a world populated of Demi-Gods and Beasts. Transform from an everyday person and become the savior of rock and roll,” said Gene Simmons of KISS. “It was an honor and privilege to narrate Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, even more so, to voice the Demi God. From the God of Thunder to the Demi-God, how cool is that..."

I will sit through everything else just for the Foo Fighters, Muse, and Silversun Pickups.

You're actually going to continue to encourage this dreck for 3 measly songs?

They don't need my "encouragement" to survive.

I won't be purchasing it. Don't worry, they won't see my money for it.

Looks like that rumored setlist was pretty accurate.

The new trailer is god-awful:

So you play with animals now?

Kotaku had a longer list of the confirmed songs and had STP "Interstate Love Song". The rumor list has "Unglued". I would love "Unglued". Even if I had to play it in GH.

Really disappointing given how GH5 was actually a step in the right direction. Now you're a magic metal monster on a quest. GUITAR HERO!

You know I had totally forgotten about liking the structure and presentation of 5.

Wow, that trailer actually made me want it even less. So it's even less about the music, and more about turning into a pig monster. Great.
