It looks like Guitar Hero III is finally going to get some new tracks (No, I'm not just talking about the GoW track) from an unlikely band. I'll admit that I dig Coldplay's music, however, they aren't a band I'd expect to find in my Guitar Hero set list. Read The Full Story

Metallica to star in their own Guitar Hero title

, Jun 3rd 2008 Discuss [2]

I'm still undecided about the whole idea of focusing a Guitar Hero game around a single band. Sure, GH: Aerosmith is going to feature other great bands too, but as much as I love Aerosmith, I think I might get tired of mostly songs by the same band. Well it seems that Activision loves the idea, because it seems that they've already got another band-themed title in the works. Perhaps you've heard of a little band called Metallica?

SlashGear Week in Review – June 1st

, Jun 1st 2008 Discuss [0]

The major news this week came out of Google’s IO Conference, with the Android team unveiling the latest build of the mobile platform and a slick touchscreen handset to demonstrate it on.  We usually leave cellphone news to our sister sites PHONE Magazine and SlashPhone, but the Android handset – complete with compass-navigated Street View and slick animations – was too good to miss.  Considering the feedback over at Android Community, Google look like they’ve recaptured any momentum lost since MWC in February.

I'm sure that by now you've seen that Activision is hoping to reach the Rock Band crowd with their upcoming Guitar Hero: World Tour. They have a few tricks up their sleeve such as dedicated cymbal pads and custom tracks, however, one of the big questions remaining is of the price.

Double Range Guitar is a must-have for PS3 rockers

, May 26th 2008 Discuss [1]

Back when Rock Band made its debut for the PS3, there was a huge stir about the controllers from the Guitar Hero franchise not playing nice with the game. While Harmonix tried to smooth things over by releasing a patch which would allow GH controllers to work, it never saw the light of day because of a dispute with Activision. With no resolution in sight, Ant Commandos has released their own guitar that will play on all versions of Guitar Hero and Rock Band for both the PS2 and the PS3. Read The Full Story
