Guitar Hero Van Halen \m/

[FatesFan]

Just when Guitar Hero was becoming stale , in comes GH Van Halen to the rescue. Playing the old Halen songs like Atomic Punk, Hot For Teacher, Eruptions, ec. is a blast. Also making an appearance is Painkiller by Judas Priest! If you don't have it, get it.

Who else has it?

Why is Painkiller on it? Painkiller was on a previous title.

Most deserving guitarist to get a dedicated GH game.

QFT! This is wicked cool for a non guitar player because it is the closest I will ever get to playing eruptions. (not that playing GH is anything like real guitar)

Well, it’s only 2009. Cannibalism will not really be an acceptable practice until 2012. Be patient.

Thanks man. I don't recall where I got it. I swiped it from some other forum I believe. I love Animal and it helps that I am a drummer as well.

It's a lot of fun. That is until my 13 yr old daughter comes right behind me and shatters my scores.

I've already heard that some big metal labels are using this to get their bands in there.

And btw before anyone says anything: I know my last post refers to Rock Band and not Guitar Hero. Don't care. If anything nobody should be supporting Activision and their greedy ways! Fuck 'em!

Shouldn't the "other bands" be bands that were at least slightly influenced by Van Halen? I mean at least the Aerosmith one had bands that had previously either collaborated or toured with Aerosmith. This list seems to just be catering to the younger crowd.

(Though given the piss poor sales of GH : Aerosmith, I guess I see their strategy)
