Tom Morello - Image 1Living guitar legend Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave has confirmed in a recent Rolling Stone interview that he's going to be one of the bosses in Activision and RedOctane's upcoming Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. He said he loved the game and is hoping to be a competitive character.

"Whenever I play Guitar Hero, my opponent always kicks my ass on my own riffs," says Morello. "Now that I'm actually in the game, I hope the digital me will win once in a while!"

Morello has been distinguished because of his trademark synthetic riffs and politically-charged numbers while with Rage Against the Machine. He continued to play mean melodies in his stint with super group Audioslave alongside former Sound Garden frontman Chris Cornell.

Brett Michaels of Poison and Slash of Guns n' Roses have earlier been named as bosses in Guitar Hero III. RedOctane promises more legends to challenge when the game launches later this year for the Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii.

» Audioslave's Morello... -_-

Should have said "Rage Against The Machine's Morello" instead, because Audioslave kinda sucks, compared to Morello's previous ass-kicking band.



Anyway Tom Morello rules, I'm looking forward to seeing him in the game. I hope they will put great songs in the game, though, because the first Guitar Hero was much better than the 2nd one for that matter - in my opinion, at least.

This guy is such a hack. He considers a solo to be taking the cable out of the guitar and running it over the pickups to get feedback and high squeels. Ask anyone who actually plays guitar for a living and they'll tell you this guy sucks ass. If you want to hear someone who is actually good on guitar, try John Petrucci

He destroys any and everyone that is on any guitar hero game. Look him up further if you want to see how fast and accurate he can actually play and all the different style ranges he can pull off.

Maybe they used Audioslave's name, since Rage kinda blows.
