DELETED SONGS
"I Want Candy" (Bow Wow Wow)

Im actually really psyched to play Holy Diver.....I was hoping they put Dio's in or if they couldnt get that then try to get the remake that Killswitch Engage in...I just wanted to really play that song.

I WANNA ROCK.....ROCK!

:cool:

I would gladly fork out some hefty MS points for those songs.

Flock of Seagulls :love:

The 360 guitar feels alot better to me...thats why im hoping for a 360 release..

Im gonna be pissed like crazy if they release it on the PS2 first...then after a month they decide to release it in miniature downloads on 360

Wait, so on the PS2, how do you d/l it? Do you have to pay or what?

Nah. It's coming out as an actual game Funky.

And apparently there will be 30 songs total.

yea like Blitz said above me...

The Playstation 2 game will be an actual game that you can go out and buy...price is $40....

the downloading thing I was if they decided to release it for the 360...which there is no word yet..

Playstation 2 version has been confirmed though

The 360 guitar is terrible. It's so uncomfortable and the point comes up just where your arm usually rests on the guitar. Don't know why anyone would prefer that over the old one.

songs I want for this game:

Lick It Up (KISS)
Final Countdown (Europe)
Boys of Summer (Don Henley) (yes, I'm lame)
another Police song
Bon Jovi
Def Leppard
Rush
AC/DC
Ozzy
Journey
Yes
Maiden

My arms rests on that little part that comes up....I cant seem to rest it on the PS2 controller...plus the square buttons fill a little better than those Circular Square ones on the PS2.

Yeah, I hate the 360 controller. It is so awkward, and I hate the buttons. You can't slide your fingers on and off of them as easy as with the PS2 guitar. They also 'click' when pushed, which I hate because it just throws off everything that I'm used to on the PS2 guitar.

I'll be happy if there's more than the mass of primarily hair metal I'm foreseeing. I'd like to see Queen and Metallica on here.

When the Guitar Hero guys announced the songs I typed above they also made it clear that the official song list was pretty much done...they were just focusing on getting a certain song from a big name band..

They didnt name the band but if its one of the big name ones fans have been talking about then it might finally be Master of Puppets from Metallica or Stairway.....but I doubt its either of the two...

Stairway came out in 1971...

anyways, more suggestions:

Eliminator era ZZ TOP
SRV
GNR - Paradise City
Motley Crue (Spilly needs to tell us which song would be best)
U2 (totally cant believe I forgot...we need a fat Edge lick)
Permanent Vacation era Aerosmith
Scorpions - Rock You Like a Hurricane
JUDAS PRIEST
Poison (dunno what song, but CC = :y: )
Cheap Trick - I Want You to Want Me (live from the Budokan)
Dire Straits - Money for Nothing
Don Felder - Never Surrender (an obscure pick from me, but awesome)
Pat Benatar - Heartbreaker (Go ahead, make fun of me)

I kinda wanted Hot Blooded by Foreigner...too bad it came out in 1978. :(

my bad....

its still a highly requested song...and honestly...as much as everyone has been begging for this song is anyone really gonna care if they put a song from the 70's in a game for 80's music

GHIII dude. and I'd rather not have Stairway anyways. Gimme Heartbreaker or something.

I'm lame as well then :love:

Also, Final Countdown :y:

They NEED some Crue on here. That will sell me.

I would suggest ... Kickstart My Heart, Live Wire, Looks That Kill, Too Fast For Love, Wild Side, Too Young To Fall In Love or Girls, Girls, Girls.

Just some of their bigger hits out of the 80's.

If it makes you feel better, I like Pat Benatar as well. But I'd go with Hell is for Children.

Well, shit in my mouth and call me your sister. :love:

Rep for the reference.

Just for the record, I HATE the 80s. with a passion.

Join the club. I had trouble coming up with TWO bands I wanted to see on here.

Im actually hoping for some Journey on this...

The Who had a few decent songs in the 80s. I mean, no "Who Are You" or "My Generation," But "You Better, You Bet," "Emminence Front," and "The Quiet One" are all good tunes.

Considering Crüe and Van Halen both had songs on GHII, I wouldn't expect them to be on here. I'm pretty sure no artist has been used on GH twice as of yet. But we'll see, for they certainly are 80s.

Sabbath?

Pretty sure War Pigs and Iron Man count.

Ahh I don't have GHI and I've only played it occasionally, so I guess I missed that. My bad.

I need to beat Freebird!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah they need some Crue, Halen, Journey, Poison, GNR ...

My cousin was playing it the other day on Expert and got 98 %...he was so pissed and I couldnt stop laughing my ass off....

I just found the new songs out earlier today on G4....I was really begging for 18 and Life.....

another suggestion:

Glenn Frey - Smuggler's Blues

YESSSS! Poison! Skid Row! EXTREME PLAY WITH ME! Craziest solo ever.

Went and pre-ordered it today. I'm told July 2nd is the release date.

18 and Life is an odd choice for the Skid Row song
