Buzz on the internet states that Guitar Hero: World Tour got rights for Jimi Hendrix master tracks. Looks like Purple Haze, Foxy Lady and Little Wing were scored. This is good news since basically tapping on plastic toy guitars is wish fulfillment to be Jimi anyway.
Get ready to ride into the Danger Zone because Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock is offering a free song download for the XBox 360 and the PlayStation 3. In celebration of Independence Day, Red Octane is offering free downloadable content through XBoX Live and the PlayStation Network. Guitar Heroes will be able to jam out to the theme of “Top Gun” while glorious explosions illuminate the night sky behind them.
Rock Band giving you a case of drumstick envy? Well fear no more because Gametrailers has a glimpse of what Guitar Hero: World Tour has to offer! As a Guitar Hero fan I’d be lying if said I haven’t played my fair share of Rock Band, but the drums on World Tour seem to take it to the next level. It’s only fair that Guitar Hero steals from Rock band since now one couldn’t exist without the other. More the merrier.
Get ready to for more all-night jam sessions kids, because the folks at primotechnology.com report that Guitar Hero 4 is on the horizon. Artists heard to be featured on the new title include Van Halen, The Eagles, Sublime, and Linkin Park. We can also expect some more master tracks to be laid down that was first done in Guitar Hero 3.
Gibson is no longer affiliated with the Guitar Hero developer, but they’ve made up for the loss with the ability for player-made instruments and musicians. Even though during the chord strumming mayhem it’s near impossible to look at your rockstar avatar, customizable characters in any game is always a plus. However I am going to be miffed if somewhere with all these changes we’re going to be required to purchase yet another guitar controller. Then again it may be worth it if they engineer a PS3 USB chargeable guitar instead of the current head-scratching double-A battery powered version that is currently available for the system. At any rate, let the hype ensue for the 4th installment of the original groundbreaking title.
