I Can Play Guitar – The crappy Guitar Hero knockoff from Mattel

, Aug 22nd 2007 Discuss [32]

You have to wonder how many people have risen to the top of big companies simply by taking someone else's great idea, changing it just enough to be really crappy and then putting it on the shelf for unsuspecting grandparents and relatives to purchase as a gift. Well, whoever came up with this little gem likely got some kind of a promotion I'm sure. Read The Full Story

Interview : Jonathan Davis of Korn talks gaming, gadgets and Guitar Hero

, Aug 15th 2007 Discuss [3]

Jonathan DavisIf you’ve been reading SlashGear for any amount of time you’ve probably noticed that I’m a huge Guitar Hero nut. Well last Friday I had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to sit down and talk Guitar Hero with another fan of the series, Jonathan Davis of Korn.

Korn has been headlining the Family Values Tour for almost a month now with Guitar Hero sponsoring the second stage. At each stop they have a competition for the best Guitar Hero player, the winner gets an autographed guitar (a real one) and the opportunity to jam with Jonathan Davis. While I wasn’t able to enter the competition, I still had the chance to witness the late-night jam session. That video, however, is for another day.

Jonathan was kind enough to agree to an interview with me where we talked about gaming, gadgets and Guitar Hero. First, I have to say that Jonathan is a really cool guy, he’s very laid back and not uptight like some people that I’ve heard about. If you’re wondering what all of the background noise is, that’s some people playing Guitar Hero outside the bus.

Video of the Day – Guitar Hero dueling banjos

, Aug 8th 2007 Discuss [3]

Alright folks, we're trying out a new segment here at SlashGear. Every day of the week I'm going to bring you a cool tech-related video clip that I've found. They'll be of all different sorts, with a new one every day of the week. [youtube 8wfdgY5ZYDk] First up is a Guitar Hero mod that someone has made. I'm not usually that into custom tracks, but this one is great, it's dueling banjos. The intro is a little slow, but it's worth it. Now only if they could get this one working in multiplayer.

Man, LEGOs are awesome, there's just nothing that you can't build out of them, except maybe a space shuttle, but I'm sure one of these days someone will build one of those too. As you might have guessed, someone's built something really cool from the tiny bricks. This time it's a fully-functional Guitar Hero controller. Read The Full Story

Activison announces 11 new tracks for Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock

, Aug 2nd 2007 Discuss [0]

The release of Guitar Hero III is creeping ever closer, and as it does, Activision is slowly giving us new tracks that we can expect to rock. They've just officially announced 11 new tracks (though we already heard a few from the guys at Score Hero). The great thing is that of the 11 tracks that they announced, 7 are master tracks. They have a good mix of old and new rock, which is really needed. After playing Guitar Hero 80s, I realized that having music from different eras is essential to the success of the game. Hit the jump for the 11 new tracks. Read The Full Story

Score Hero spends some quality time with Guitar Hero III

, Jul 27th 2007 Discuss [0]

I'm a very impatient person, I hate waiting for a new game to come out. Guitar Hero 80s was alright, but I've already beaten it, with only a couple of songs left to 5-star. I'm ready for the next full game to come out, Guitar Hero III. The guys over at Score Hero were invited to a special sneak peek at Guitar Hero III on the Xbox 360. We can look forward to a couple of new characters, Midoi and Slash, as well as 8 new venues where we can rock out. They also were able to score a few new tracks that have not yet been revealed.
