You should be fine with those 100 songs for a good month or tw-

What’s that? You want more? You’re in luck! Along with a new, constantly updating stream of Rock Band Network DLC, Rock Band Music Store DLC will still be updated on a weekly basis, while Guitar Hero still gets it’s (now rather flimsy looking) 3 songs per week. So… what’s comin’ next week?

Guitar Hero Van Halen Screen Shots

October 16th, 2009 Kristofer Brozio No comments

So I got my hand on GH Van Halen and I figured I’d grab some screen shots to share with PDVD_001you.. The game is a bit disappointing honestly though, it doesn’t bring anything really new to the GH series, but if you’re a Van Halen fan then you’ll want to grab it anyway..

The game isn’t supposed to be officially released until December, so these are a bit early for you..  Enjoy!

Kurt Cobain Resurrected for Guitar Hero 5

August 31st, 2009 Jeff Saporito No comments

This September, grunge legend and Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain will appear in Guitar Hero 5.  He will be available as a playable character for two of Nirvana’s legendary songs from the 1991 album “Nevermind.”  The songs are the iconic “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and a previously unreleased live version of “Lithium.”

“Kurt Cobain is one of the most recognizable frontmen in rock ‘n’ roll history and it’s an honor to have two of Nirvana’s masterpieces included in Guitar Hero 5,” said Tim Riley, Vice President of Music Affairs for Activision. “This is the first time the original recording of ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ has ever been licensed in an entertainment property and we’re thrilled to offer Guitar Hero fans exclusive access to the unreleased live version of ‘Lithium.’”  Every time a previously unreleased Nirvana single is made public it’s a pretty big deal, so expect a lot of hype around this track.

This feature of the upcoming game will be a big deal for many people who grew up in the 1990s and identified with Nirvana’s music.  His appearance will be cool, if nothing else.  Let’s just hope Courtney Love stays out of the game.

For those nostalgic for the dead, also being resurrected for a guest appearance in GH5 is Johnny Cash, playing “Ring of Fire.”

Free Guitar Hero: Van Halen!

August 11th, 2009 Lucas Larimore No comments

For all of you who thought you might put it down forever:  Think again.  From now until the end of October, you can get Guitar Hero: Van Halen for free.  All you have to do is get a specially marked copy of the upcoming Guitar Hero 5, and mail in the rebate form. Check the offer out here.

Yes that is two games for the price of one. And, yes it is legitimate (offered by Activision). And yes, I have already pre-ordered my copy. Now I can get Johnny Cash and Van Halen for the price of one. I’m squealing like a school girl now.
