These are the pictures of the new guitars they will be releasing for Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. The game is coming out for PS2, PS3, Nintendo Wii, and XBOX 360. The guitars I feel have a newer and better style.
“Of the eight listed songs, an impressive six are drawn from the master tapes of each band’s original recording: The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again,” David Bowie’s “Suffragette City,” Weezer’s “Say it Ain’t So,” Nirvana’s “In Bloom,” The Hives’ “Main Offender,” and, for that extra bit of cowbell, Blue Oyster Cult’s “Don’t Fear the Reaper”
The remaining two tracks, Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid” and Mountain’s “Mississippi Queen,” will be performed as covers, in line with most of the music used in Harmonix’s previous Guitar Hero games.”
This is the first video I have come across on the new game Rock Band. The concept is exactly like guitar hero almost, but you can actually put together a band, in various parts of the world. Using the guitar, drums, bass, ect. Video isn’t great, but that part comes at the end, the first part is about another concept they are creating on a virtual world. The guitar they will be using is shown below, with link to video.
Ending with a song “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey could be a genius song for an ending to a great show like Soprano’s…
Just a small town girl, livin in a lonely world (Here’s where they could have shown what happened with MeadwShe took the midnight train goin anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in south detroit
He took the midnight train goin anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill,
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin anything to roll the dice,
Just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
(chorus)
Dont stop believin
Hold on to the feelin
Streetlight people
But alas it wasn’t used to it’s potential… so here is a place where we feel the song was better put to use:
