If you guys are jamming hard on GH5 and can’t get enough, you’ll be pleased to see all the downloadable tracks. I could see myself hitting “Beautiful People” or Wolfmother. These aren’t freebies, but if there’s something you have to have, here is the song release schedule for October.
You know when I’m down to just my socks it’s time for business, that’s why they call it business socks.
One of the best HBO comedies around, Flight of the Conchords, is coming to Rock Band. My Guitar Hero: World Tour owning soul yearns for this awesomeness. The humor in the show is a little offbeat and very musical. But if you’re into that, you’re golden.
Guitar Hero 5, the latest in the retinue of the award-winning, fret-slamming, head-pounding video game, is now available. New features to set it apart from its four older brothers are turning up the volume for diehards.
Guitar Hero 5 is more than just same old game, new packaging. There are enhancements that make it a worthy purchase for a true Guitar Hero fan. One of those improvements is a refurbished single player mode. In “career mode” players have more options available to them for switching instruments, say from the bass guitar to the lead vocals. A fancy new menu gives some educational insights on songs both past and present that are important in music history.
Guitar Hero 5 features Rockfest, which is a set of multiplayer modes for your jam sessions. 1up has an interview about what all the modes actually are.
• Momentum - All players begin at medium difficulty and go up in difficulty when they hit 20 notes in a row. But they go down in difficulty after missing three notes.
• Streakers - Longer the streaks, the higher the scores.
• Perfectionist - Most notes hit equals king of the hill.
• Do or Die - Miss anymore that 3 successive notes and you’re out. At least until the next section.
• Elimination - A song is cut up and divided amongst rockers. The weakest link gets dropped til it’s last one standing.
• Pro Face-Off - The tried and true ax battle.
