it wouldve been cooler to have some of their shreddier/heavier stuff in the game but ill take what i can get...and if they were gonna put a fall of troy song it was kind of expected this would be the one they'd choose....i can still hope for seattlantis though for gh4 right?

Metallica, slayer, and Maiden in the top tier? Are you shitting me? Slipknot and disturbed in tier 7? This is an abortion of a list.

alright, this game is more than sold to me. however, I have one question: can we get the songs WITHOUT co-op? I'm not giving up money just to get another guitar to unlock a few songs.

besides that, bloc party, matchbook romance and fall of troy just guaranteed my purchase.

having played this just today at TGS07, i can say that the interface is nice, everything looks good, and the songs available were all cool. however, there is a TERRIBLE problem with it. as i wrote in the TSG thread:

I'm a little disappointed, none of the new songs really caught my eye.

I also hope you can play those songs without co-op

And no Ateryu or Velvet Revolver? Those were both confirmed. I also thought there would definitely be an MCR song, with Dead on GHII 360 and the downloadable songlist.

For now, I'm calling BS.

yeah, unless my brother gives me his 360 guitar and i find a used version of the game before christmas, im gonna pass on this game. i'll use whatever money i get for christmas and just buy rockband instead, not because i think it'll be a better game, but because i'd rather sing and play guitar than just play guitar.

on a side note, i played halo 3 with someone who was supposedly working on guitar hero 3. i thought he was lieing, but then saw he had every achievment from the game, so i took his word for it. but when i said i thought rock band would be a better game, he said that it wasn't gonna be as good as guitar hero 3. doesn't that remind of you of when sony edited wikipedia's halo 3 page to say that it wasn't gonna be that great?

Edit: One, even though i love it, and its my 4th favorite metallica song behind fade to black, orion and battery, is not that hard. the first half of the song is pretty slow and straight forward. the second half is incredibly repetitive, and even though its fast, its nothing compared to how quick miserlou was. lastly, that solo is complicated, but its pretty short, and the break down solo is pretty easy. i dont see why that song is so far up the list.

Well I expected them to cater to popularity over quality and credibility to some extent, but never this badly. It's just sad.

I was hoping they'd make the game harder over all, but I don't see that happening given the lame songs given.

so no one else has a problem with the horrendously early syncing? or was it just that no one seemed to catch me mentioning that?

Game Informer said for Co-Op Career, if you've beaten songs on Hard & Expert & your friend wants to play on Medium, guess what? GO PLAY THE ENTIRE CAREER AGAIN ON MEDIUM!

it might've been the hd lag. guitar hero 2 had that same problem.

uh.... what are you talking about? if you mean that the lag is due to a standard signal being converted to HD (common definition of 'hd lag') it doesnt apply since the signal sourse is already in HD. no conversion required.

-Song selection now shows the year each song was recorded in.
-You can select multiple sections in practice mode to go through in one play.
-There is an option for Co-Op career mode, but is disabled.
-There is now an option to calibrate the whammy bar, in addition to lag calibration seen in Guitar Hero II.
-Rock You Like A Hurricane's lyrics got censored alittle ("b!tch" got taken out.....HUH.....*Looks at DDRMAX2 & EX AC*
