The Official Guitar Hero/ Rock Band Thread

[EvilGenious]

This thread is dedicated to two of my all time favorite games...Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Here you can list songs you like, how long it took you to complete the game, songs you hate, and other random stuff.

My favorite all time song comes from GHIII....Dragonforce's Through the Fire and Flames. I had always loved that song, and when I found out it was on III, I was estatic!

GO!!!!

I downloaded "Message in a Bottle" by the Police on Rock Band last Friday. I just love singing that song!!! I also like singing Still Alive by GlaDOS and all the Weezer songs.

I used to play Guitar Hero a lot, but since Rock Band came out...

My roommate loves anything weezer. as for me, i then to go for anything hardcore. i love all the metallica songs. some of my other favorite songs are "welcome home" by coheed and cambria, "thunderhorse" by dethklok (the band from metalocalypse), "the light that blinds" by shadows fall (i absolutely love the intro and transition from slow to extremely fast), and "learn to fly" by the foo fighters.

i am starting on hard for the games on guitar, but im on easy for the drums. dont ever ask me to sing. i break ear drums.

edit: i got the group that sung "the light that blinds" wrong and corrected it. i guess i need more sleep.

"Learn to Fly" is awesome!!!! We should get together to play someday.
You play the guitar and I sing.

I can actually play the guitar and sing at the same time in some songs. O_O

I promise I'll post videos of me playing some day. XD

my roommate can sing and play drums at the same time, but only if she knows the song really well.

The ad is so bad that it's good. XD *wiggle wiggle wiggle*

Seriously, I'd feel kinda stupid playing this....."rock on"??? tsc, tsc.

[rykarreolacr]

Yeah, i saw that video this morning and I felt ashamed for anyone who buys this. XDDDD

I looooooove Guitar Hero =D Though I can't play any songs past Medium xD One of my all-time favorite songs is F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X by Fall of Troy. I found it in GHIII as one of the unlockable song and I was soooooooooooo happy! I only own I and II, but my neighbor has III and lets me play it.

I haven't played GH in a while, but I really love Rock Band. It's a nice game to get with friends and jam to. I'll be getting the newly unveiled Guitar Hero: Metallica, fo sho, that'll be kick ass off the shizzie. I'll also be buying Guitar Hero IV solely for the Dream Theater song . Finally my favorite underground band gets a little less underground. Other than that, the games are fun and engaging. GH got boring really fast for me, probably because of my taste in music, but Rock Band keeps me going due to the PlayStation Store (just downloaded Hysteria by Muse last night) and the whole friends getting together aspect. Good stuff though, can't wait to hear what songs GH: Metallica will have. Maybe they'll have the entire discography!! (fanboys can dream, too!!!)

CAMBRIDGE, Mass - June 2, 2008 – Harmonix Music Systems, the leading developer of music-based games, and MTV Games, a part of Viacom’s MTV Networks (NYSE: VIA, VIA.B), announced today that they will team up with Q Entertainment, a leading Japanese music game designer, to bring the best-selling music videogame Rock Band to Japan. The two studios will work together to develop the title, marking the first US-originated rock music game to be heavily localized for the Japanese market. The game will feature Japanese musical acts as well as other localized assets.

If Japanese songs are made available to the Western market as well, and there's Asian Kung-Fu Generation in it, I'll seriously wet my pants... O_O

Hell yeah!! There's always room for more Metallica fangirls.

Green Grass and High Tides is a pretty cool song to play on guitar. Also, is Rock Band coming out in Japan? >_>

I love Guitar Hero, but I can only play it during school when I can mooch the game off of my suitemate! :) I'm pretty good in Hard mode--not great, but good--and can pass a few Expert songs. (The really repetitive ones!)

When I saw "Ruby" and "Knights of Cydonia" in GHIII, I was so happy. Those songs (and "Sweet Child of Mine") are my favorite tracks.

I'm actually excited about the new Aerosmith GH. I may actually get spend money(!) to buy a copy for my Wii. I didn't know about the Metallica version; that's awesome too. If I could just play "Enter Sandman," I'd be so happy!

Music games rock in general. ;)
