KrakenKing Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Does anybody have the game Guitar Hero for the PS2? I've seen it around for a while now and finally decided to pick it up for myself yesterday, in my opinion, it's great! Think of Dance Dance Revolution... but with a guitar. I started on Medium and have beaten all the Medium level. I can pass most of the songs on Hard and a few on Expert as well. Here's the songlist for the game: Motorhead - "Ace of Spades" Ozzie Osbourne - "Bark at the Moon" Audioslave - "Cochise" Pantera - "Cowboys From Hell" Cream - "Crossroads" Sum 41 - "Fat Lip" Edgar Winter Group - "Frankenstein" Blue Oyster Cult - "Godzilla" Burning Brides - "Heart Full of Black" The Exies - "Hey You" Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Higher Ground" Joann Jett - "I Love Rock and Roll" The Ramones - "I Wanna Be Sedated" Bad Religion - "Infected" Black Sabbath - "Iron Man" Queen - "Killer Queen" Boston - "More Than A Feeling" Queens of the Stone Age - "No One Knows" ZZ Top - "Sharp Dressed Man" Deep Purple - "Smoke on the Water" Jimi Hendrix - "Spanish Castle Magic" Incubus - "Stellar" Megadeth - "Symphony of Destruction" The Donnas - "Take It Off" Franz Ferdinand - "Take Me Out" Stevie Ray Vaughn - "Texas Flood" White Zombie - "Thunderkiss 65" Helmet - "Unsung" Judas Priest - "You Got Another Thing Comin" David Bowie - "Ziggy Stardust" In addition, there are 17 unlockable tracks from Indie Rock bands, which include: Acro-Brats - "Call Out" Anarchy Club - "Behind the Mask" Artillery - "The Breaking Wheel" Black Label Society - "Fire It Up" Count Zero - "Sail Your Ship By" Din - "Fly on the Wall" Drist - "Decontrol" Freezepop - "Get Ready 2 Rock" Graveyard BBQ - "Cheat on the Church" Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives - "Hey" Made in Mexico - "Farewell Myth" Monkey Steal the Peach - "Theme from Guitar Hero" The Bags - "Caveman Rejoice" The Model Sons - "The Story of my Love" The Slip - "Even Rats" The Upper Crust - "Eureka! I Found Love" Shaimus - "All of This" The Guitar controller consists of five buttons on the neck of the guitar (Green, Red, Yellow, Blue and Orange), the "Strummer" and even a whammy bar. I don't know if it's only in the Orlando area, but Best Buy has it out for people to try it. Guitar Hero 2 is scheduled to release in November. So far the tracks that were confirmed at E3 are: Van Halen - "You Really Got Me" KISS - "Strutter" Butthole Surfers - "Who Was in my Room Last Night?" Black Sabbath - "Warpigs" Drist - "Arterial Black" Reverand Horton Heat - "Psychobilly Freakout" Rush - "YYZ" Primus - "John the Fisherman" I can't wait!

Masked_Maverick Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I don't have it but after playing it at Best Buy I want to get it so bad now. Once I got used to the guitar I couldn't stop playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiFan Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I never considered getting it because I already have Guitar Freaks 1st and 2nd Mix for PS1 (Konami's guitar game series that they never released in the US other than in arcades). Because it sounds so good, I'll get it eventually but I'm waiting for a good deal before I buy it (under $30) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvcoasterguy Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 It seems pretty pricey. Last week at Best Buy, it was $73, on sale. I like all the rhythm/music games, so I might give it a try if it goes to forty or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkdcoaster Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 yea the game looks really cool but I am in the "wait till its cheaper boat" BTW Krackenking that vid in your sig is funny as hell!!!! JEFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjgx Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Yeah, Guitar Hero is a bunch of fun... I've played it before at Best Buy. I'm not that great at it, but for obvious reasons... I've only played it once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapseofreason Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I have it, but haven't played in a while. If I remember right, I'm stuck somewhere on the Hard Level. I can't play for more than three or four songs in one sitting though; the background makes me dizzy. REALLY LATE EDIT: I also passed up electronic drums to get this. Stupid. And I don't think I've played since I originally posted this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeow Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 ive played it. a real guitar or bass is loads more fun. and KrakenKing your siggy really is hilarious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not For Sale Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I have everything beat except for Cowboys From Hell and Bark At The Moon on expert. I also made this cake. It's so damn geeky of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrakenKing Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Lol at the cake. I dunno if the game will go for any less than $40 (The one including the Guitar)... the guitar itself costs $40. DDR costs around $50 if you get the one that includes the really craptastic pad, so I don't see why $70 is a big deal. After you buy that DDR bundle you're still spending $30 or $40 per game title (DDR Max, DDR Max2, etc...) Guitar Hero 2 will be sold in a bundle for $70 and the game will be sold by itself for around $30 or $40 (I'm guessing $40 because In The Groove [Produced also by Red Octane] sells for that much on its own).

verticalzero Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I have this game, I will re-spray the guitar a different colour soon. I will def get the 2nd one which is due out soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astat Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I like Guitar Hero, although I spend more time playing this... But actually, does anybody know if Guitar Hero 2 will have the real songs in it this time, instead of cover versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvcoasterguy Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 ^ Doubtful. Most music games use cover versions due to licensing stuff in the US. Strange, but that's how they do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not For Sale Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Some of the songs in Guitar Hero 2 will be the original songs. It's been confirmed that the Primus song is the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixflagsmagicmountain Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 The first time I tried this game I thought it was hard as hell, I guess it just takes some practice. I am okay at it now, not a game I want to rush and buy, I just play my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I watched some videos of people playing this game on you tube and I thought it looked midiocre. Having covers of the songs is terrible in my opinon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaddyboy Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 For guitar hero 2, do you think we'll be able to use the guitar hero 1 guitar? Is this how it's done for DDR(sorry, I've never played it)? I would really love to just pick the game up for $40 or less and be able to use my same guitar.

Hercules Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 I tried to play this game at Best Buy last month and thought it was horrible. Of course, I wasn't very good at it, so that is probably why I think it sucks. All of the little 9 year olds were laughing at me. I don't know whether it was because I sucked so bad or if I was a 22 year old trying to play a video game in Best Buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfie Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 My friend has it and I owned him the first time I ever played it. It's very easy if you're a musician, but it's still a fun game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
