Guitar Hero III adds even more bands and songs!

Posted Aug 4, 2007 at 5:07PM EST by QJ Staff

Just when you thought that the all-star cast of real life rock icons was enough to knock your rocker socks off, Activision announces the addition of more famous artists to the mix. The original announcement had Guns n' Roses, Black Sabbath, Kiss, Pearl Jam, Alice Cooper and a lot more headlining the gig, but wait 'til you get a load of what's been added.

Ever wondered how it feels like to be John Frusciante with his funky riffs tearing through along with Anthony Kiedis' voice? Wonder no more. Current greats Red Hot Chili Peppers just hopped aboard the tour bus and they're taking AFI, Iron Maiden, Queens of the Stone Age, Slayer and the Strokes along for the show.

That's right, all of these bands will have tracks of their own included in Guitar Hero III: The Legends of Rock. One might argue that this is the gaming industry's answer to Woodstock.

The collection of artists and tracks is so deep that AFL's Jade Puget had to say "if you're going to start playing Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, make sure you have, say, the next 2 years free, because that's all you're going to want to do."

Knowing the kind of success that the Guitar Hero franchise has enjoyed throughout its run, Jade isn't really overstating her case. Still not convinced? Then maybe this list of newly added tracks will change your mind:

Â· Miss Murder (by AFI)
Â· Through Fire and Flames (by Dragonforce)
Â· Number of the Beast (by Iron Maiden)
Â· 3's and 7's (by Queens of the Stone Age)
Â· Suck My Kiss (by Red Hot Chili Peppers)
Â· Raining Blood (by Slayer)
Â· Reptillia (by The Strokes)
Â· Paranoid (as made famous by Black Sabbath)
Â· Cities on Flame (as made famous by Blue Oyster Cult)
Â· Mississippi Queen (as made famous by Mountain)
Â· La Grange (as made famous by ZZ Top)

Guitar Hero III comes out later this year for the Sony PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii and the Microsoft Xbox 360. If you've got the rhythm in you, go out and give it a shot.

How the hell can you be so narrow minded. Sure, miss murder isn't exactly my favourite AFI song, but I'm glad its in the game. And QOTSA are "gay"? WTF?

What is wrong with you? I listen to various types of music, and Guitar Hero 2 basically got me into metal. Hated Iron Maiden before it, but the Trooper is a great song. You should really expand your taste in music, rather than listen to just one cliched genre.

Oh, and Jade Puget is male.

SLAYYERRRRRRRRR RRRRRRRRRRRRRR! !!!!

# no — Guest 2007-08-05 12:45

well this game will obviously be better on ps3 or even 360 i mean there are probably going to be more songs then the wii (blueray/hddvds fit more space) online for ps3 /360 and probably no motion

# ummm — Guest 2007-08-05 12:47

sucks...

# Uhh yeah QOTSA — Guest 2007-08-05 16:36

I agree with the other guy. They are extremely gay. They are nothing compared to Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, hell! AFI!

# ij — Guest 2007-08-05 18:13

Why would u get the 360 version if theres an XBOX version also ( not saying there is just putting this out there) Unless you get more songs its kinda pointless. *oooh HD Guitar frets*

# Decent list. — Guest 2007-08-05 18:47

If they would go back about 9 years and use that AFI it wouldn't be half bad. I mean, that was when AFI didn't suck.

It's AFI, not AFL.

"The collection of artists and tracks is so deep that AFL's Jade Puget had to say..."

Jade is a guy.

"Knowing the kind of success that the Guitar Hero franchise has enjoyed throughout its run, Jade isn't really overstating her case."

Miss Murder is that kind of song that makes me wanna punch a baby...AFI is a terrible band.

Anywho, GH3 needs some Nine Inch Nails.
