Coincidentally, my three favorite Def Leppard songs, other than Pour Some Sugar On Me. However, I think they're missing a real opportunity, marketing later Def Leppard material on rockband designed for use of only one drumstick

That was very black humor. Luckily, I like my humor dyed with pitch.

In an update, word from 1Up is that the guitarist mispoke and the songs will actually be made available as downloadable content. A tad disappointing as we have no news on the status of GH4, but it's great that they're pushing downloadable content.

Actually, Def Leppard is a pretty awesome band. Their later releases, which covers a lot of ground given that I consider that pretty much everything post-Hysteria, may have been heavily-commercialized attempts at mainstream success, the harder edge of their early sound made them a major player in the NWOBHM, and the significance of the Pyromania album really can't be understated.
