I will only be satisfied when The Hold Steady appear on a Guitar Hero game. C'mon, we're getting OK Go's real music, now; we're half-way there!

And they said this was going to have the most diverse setlist.

Smash Mouth? DAUGHTRY? MAROON F%$#ING 5!?!?
AAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Jeez.. I would be embarrassed to be caught on the bus with my DS playing some of these songs. Really geared towards the American Idol crowd on this one.

I was excited to see what songs they'd come up with here... hopefully, the rest will be better.

Oh my god... who wouldn't kill to play Jessie's Girl in Guitar Hero? That song is distilled ass kickery. Playing it on the DS's grubby little screen will likely dim the magic. Perhaps a console rendition is not too much to hope for.

Wow. I couldn't possibly care less about Guitar Hero on any system, but that is possibly the worst song list I have ever seen in my life. For anything.

Ever.

Ever.

Well besides not caring about GH at all I totally agree with what you said.

This is why i play Frets on Fire, you can download almost any song, my collection is about 500 and growing, not to mention you have access to harder, faster songs

GH Fire and flames has nothing on the FoF Fire and Flames, let alone something like Revolution death squad.

'Are you gonna be my girl' looks good though.

 

[danosaurus]

ok wtf? apart from twisted sister and Nirvana that's possibly the kind of playlist i'd expect to hear in an elevator to Hell.
Did i mention the elevators filled with fat guys who are beefing? cos it is

 

[Logan Frederick]

To be fair, I get the feeling Nintendo was aiming for songs popular with a younger generation. The DS generation. Of course there are some older classics, but many of those are also quite famous. Rather than the typical GH classic rock soundtrack, this is more modern.

Not necessarily good, but modern.

Dude, you're trying to mitigate the fact that this song list is tits-to-toes garbage.

(Although I will express a certain affection for Twisted Sister, and Kiss is awesome although that song... isn't.)

It's not that bad. Damn, almost said that with a straight face.

 

[Ultrajoe]

this is like being raped by a screw propeller covered in turpentine

flaming turpentine

surely someone in the dev team must have spotted that they were making the songlist most know as 'trash'
