Posted by EvilDeadGamer

Has anyone else heard about this? planning on buying it, ect. if you havent heard of it its pretty self explanitory, its GH, its all classic rock...my favorite kind of music




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Classic rock? Hardly, most of it sucks ***.

Why didn't they choose the 70s? The 60s?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Haha... classic rock.

Anywho, **** sucks. Seriously, wow. What a horrible track list.

Unlike previous Guitar Hero games, there will be no bonus tracks in Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s

Sounds gay. Plus no more bonus tracks so that's just down right gay.

They should of. I would of loved rocking it out to some Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, The Who, etc. :)

Classic rock my ***. No metallica or acdc. booooooo




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

metallica isn't classic rock...

But yeah, why they chose the 80s for a guitar game... I'll never know.

It seems like everyone is overlooking this one and focusing on Guitar Hero 3, and even more so on Rock Band.

How much is this one going to cost?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

full price. And really, people SHOULD be overlooking this. GH3 looks pretty lame, but it's gotta be better than this. Then there's Rock Band which looks amazing, far better than either game can ever hope to be.




Posted by Ant

do the guitar hero guitars work on Rock Band?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Probably, but they'll miss functionality. There's an extra eight buttons on the new guitars I believe.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Five up top, five down near the bottom of the neck for solos. :D




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

why'd I say eight? I meant to say four, which meant to be five.




Posted by Tiptoegecko

I will still be getting this regardless of how crappy the song list is. Im not paying for it, and it would be nice to play some ****ing new songs.


Quoting The X: Five up top, five down near the bottom of the neck for solos. :D


Yup. That Stratocaster replica looks ****ing hot. I can't wait to use it in Rock Band<3

If you buy Guitar Hero III, you will have wasted your money and be wishing you bought Rock Band instead. If you buy this, you just need to die. And agreed, I read the track list a while back. Sucks. I like one song on there, and that's it. Sucky playlist and a sucky game.

GH 3 should have a pretty solid track list and the wireless Guitar looks great. If you think that is a waste of money I don't know how you're going to justify the $200 that Rock Band will set you back.



Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

200? Please, it's going to cost a hell of a lot more than that. You can buy full albums. People are going to spend so much money on Rock Band.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Can't you just buy Rock Band with a single instrument? Or do you have to get the full package?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

You can just buy whatever you want. You can form a band over live with those who have instruments you don't have.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

I think I'll just buy it with a guitar. I can't sing, and my friend's an expert drummer, so we'll have those bases covered. Plus, I'm pretty sure I heard the Rock Band guitar works with Guitar Hero and vice-versa. Finally I can get those co-op achievements!




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Yeah, except the GH guitar doesn't fully work in RB since it's missing the other buttons.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Yeah, I meant the other way around. Using the RB guitar to get GHII achievements. :cool:

RB guitar looks a lot better than my ***-awful X-Plorer.




Posted by Colonel

I can't get Rock Band :(




Posted by Anti-Muffla

I think Rock Band sucks. It's going to be way too much money and it's really nerdy. a buncha videogame nerds sitting around thinking they are a cool band, when they are really just playing a dumb game. Jesus make your own REAL band, it's way better. GH is good though, i love guitar hero because it's fun and affordable and you can play it by yourself or with a few friends.

Yea, go and kill yourself.

Guitar Hero 80's is the ****!, but the song selection is very little and isn't worth the 50$ price tag at all, but it still follows the GH gameplay on the the dot and is just a little appetizer for the main course ( Which is obviously GH3 )




Posted by Sapphire Rose

That would make Rock Band the whole ****ing resturant.

How can it be the sh[COLOR=Silver]it[/COLOR], as you put it, if it's hardly worth the money?
