  • psylemon, on 08/07/2008, -0/+28+1 for 'girlfap'
  • Cdog923, on 08/07/2008, -11/+38Am I the only one more excited for GH 4 than RB?
  • Johnkerry04, on 08/07/2008, -4/+27Thank god its the original "beat it"... The Fall Out Boy version is a crime against music.
  • Tob3z, on 08/07/2008, -4/+24No. I don't understand the hate for GH.
  • PullingTeeth, on 08/07/2008, -4/+23GH3 sucked pretty hard compared to what Rockband did.
  • ThePowerDigger, on 08/09/2008, -1/+19So are we getting a keyboard attachment for 'Light My Fire' by The Doors?
  • kamikazicondon, on 08/07/2008, -1/+18MUSE!
  • codeblue315, on 08/07/2008, -1/+17Finally some kick ass Smashing Pumpkins on here (aside from the DLC on Rock Band, 'Zero'), no more of that 'Cherub Rock', not that I don't like that song, but wow I'm so sick of it.
  • MikeSetera, on 08/07/2008, -1/+16Light My Fire is gonna be awesome
  • louiebaur, on 08/07/2008, -2/+16Yea a little Eddie Van Halen never hurt anybody other than the fact that it will probably make your fingers bleed playing it:-)
  • EvilLordBanana, on 08/07/2008, -1/+14Fallout Boy doesn't suck because they are mainstream, they suck because their music sounds like an audio bowel movement.
  • RegularJohn, on 08/07/2008, -1/+14Ah, The Doors and Smashing Pumpkins will be fun to play. Dragonforce is gonna be a problem though, as always :
  • CristianRaiber, on 08/07/2008, -1/+14So do we need to hold our noses while singing like Billy Corgan?
  • marnaq, on 08/07/2008, -0/+12KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN
  • inactive, on 08/07/2008, -0/+11GH3's charts were pretty off, lots of parts where there wasn't any guitar but you still played(Like When You Were Young, you play the synth).

    Hopefully it's fixed this time around.
  • faceless323, on 08/07/2008, -0/+11Wouldn't a girl fap be "flick flick flick" or "nom nom nom"?

    :-)
  • shaymein, on 08/07/2008, -1/+9that guitar lick was the essence of my childhood ears...
  • boardthis, on 08/07/2008, -1/+9if your fingers are bleeding from touching buttons then you have a serious problem.
  • kronaldo, on 08/07/2008, -3/+10Anyone want to explain how In The End won't suck?
  • ElBeh, on 08/07/2008, -0/+7I dunno, maybe half the people with an XBox 360, Wii, or PS3?
  • sockpuppets, on 08/07/2008, -1/+8..because it's a Michael Jackson song, get it?

    *sigh*
  • scubasteve03, on 08/07/2008, -0/+6Yeah, seriously what's next? Soon they'll put out entire expansion games dedicated to bands no one has cared about for 10 years.

    OH WAIT A SECOND GUYS THAT ALREADY HAPPENED.
  • TrueXtremeIcon, on 08/08/2008, -0/+5KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN
  • marnaq, on 08/07/2008, -0/+5Buried for mentioning the Pedophile micheal jackson
  • Mossman85, on 08/07/2008, -1/+6What time is it when the little hand is on the big hand? Bed time at Michael Jackson's house.
  • marnaq, on 08/07/2008, -1/+6Thanks. Why didn't you submit it to ***** digg then?
  • mikek814, on 08/07/2008, -6/+10Who cares, Rock Band pwns Gui... oh wait, this one has drums too
  • freetyme, on 08/07/2008, -2/+6Amen.
  • ouorama, on 08/07/2008, -0/+4All fashion looks pretty stupid when you take it 25 years out of context. I'm sure that 3 month old infant will be laughing at your fashion when he's 25. That fashion was hot back in the day and every kid on the street tried to emulate it.
  • darkchild82, on 08/07/2008, -5/+9At first, I was like 'Michael Jackson'? But then, the song started playing in my head and realized it would be a good fit for the game. As for "In the End" by Linkin Park .... (*sigh*) I like the band but their music does not translate well for such games. It's as lame as the Coldplay pack that was released for Guitar Hero III recently
  • Paranoidmarvin, on 08/08/2008, -0/+3Moar... Radiohead...!!!!
  • nicko68, on 08/08/2008, -0/+3As a Wii owner, I'm definitely more excited about GH:WT. As of now, it looks like that is the only one which will support DLC, finally.
  • DforSpiD, on 08/08/2008, -0/+3Anyone can play guitar?
    Seems to make sense to me
  • tidu, on 08/08/2008, -0/+3This is Guitar Hero... guitar's gonna be playing the riffs, the bass, the organ, and piano, and they'll STILL overchart it
  • frenchkick, on 08/07/2008, -0/+3RB 2 is getting "PDA", which i would love to play

    but at least its not a song from their recent album..which was a disappointment
  • N0153T4NK, on 08/07/2008, -3/+6What?
  • faceless323, on 08/07/2008, -0/+3Youtube ruined In The End for me. Just about every AMV has In The End as its song.
  • Tob3z, on 08/07/2008, -1/+4GH3 was the worst out of GH1 & 2 because of the timing window and set list. But it's not a bad game. I haven't bought RB because us brits got shafted on the price, no doubt the same will happen with GH4.

    To me though it's like Halo 2 coming out and people saying Halo 1 is now a crap game. I know GH3 and RB are two completely different games made by different developers, but because Rock Band came out later and it is better, it doesn't make GH3 a bad game.

    Just saying :p
  • splorpdotorg, on 08/08/2008, -0/+3"The gypsies have no homes, The Doors have no bass." -Bruce McCulloch
  • inactive, on 08/07/2008, -2/+5yeah i guess there's that pretty sick solo in the middle when they face off with one another, but the fashion, ouch
  • fuzzynyanko, on 08/07/2008, -0/+3Beat it: I remember Weird Al's parody of it where the guy's guitar began to smoke and exploded. Definitely a sign of a game destined to Guitar Hero or Rock Band.
  • nicko68, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2That's great, but GH:World Tour will have drums and vocals also.
  • Ericular, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2GH3 was nothing amazing compared to 1, 2, and 80s. Especially with Rock Band taking the "full band experience" and online content crown. However, GH4 looks to be a formidable response, particularly for Wii owners. In other words, this game is going to blast your ass out of the universe. You'll see.
  • AGONYTUESDAY, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2why cant they release a guitar hero game that is JUST classic rock? all of these new "rock" songs ruin the game. just ONE with nothing but pre-1980 songs? the Who? Zeppelin? Pink Floyd? John Mellencamp?
    I really want to see Bob Segar's "Down on Main Street".
  • DrCyclops, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2Considering Van Halen's... complicated history, I'd say that an all Van Halen Guitar Hero will probably never happen.
  • Funbox, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2Because playing a guitar and playing an entertaining rhythm game are not the same thing.

    Why don't you go on a shooting spree instead of playing Call of Duty? It's more realistic.

    Get the ***** off the internet.
