    • Call Me When You're Sober - Evanescence
    • Weight of the World - Evanescence

    • Rock 'n' Roll Nightmare - Spinal Tap
    • Saucy Jack - Spinal Tap
    • Warmer Than Hell - Spinal Tap

    +1 on the sticky idea.
    Maybe include GH in there too, i know it's DLC is piss poor by comparison but at the same time, it still fits in with the genre. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,901 ✭✭✭Twilightning


    Maybe a separate thread would do Guitar Hero more justice!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,599 ✭✭✭James Howlett


    This is a good idea, I do like it.

    Bring Me to Life - Evanescence
    I actually like this, good stuff.

    I'm terribly excited about Green Day. I'm not sure if they deserve a full game like the Beatles but they have enough good music for a decent download pack/ some-sort-of-story-campaign-single-player/band-player-type-game-thing.

    Basket Case.....

    Spinal tap is the only thing from that list that I'll be touching with a barge poll... Evanescence... *shudders*


  • Registered Users Posts: 538 ✭✭✭Greyjoy


    I can't understand why they didn't include some 'classic' Spinal Tap into the bundle to sweeten the deal with the new tracks. Ah well, hopefully it'll mean we'll get tracks from the film or 'Break Like the Wind' down the pipeline.

    I've always been a fan of Evanescence, although I would have used a different choice of songs than Weight of the World and Call Me When You're Sober. Probably Sweet Sacrifice and Going Under instead. Ah well, I'm still chuffed with Bring Me to Life. :D

    Gonna be fun to play on drums.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭cedomination


    I like Green Day but I don't think they'd be good in RB,especially not the new ones.

    Older stuff, like The Grouch would work. :D
    "I was a young boy that had big plaaaaans, now i'm just another sh*tty old maaaaan"

    Hrm, that kinda sounds like me :(
    Fun tune though! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,901 ✭✭✭Twilightning


    Turned on my 360 just a few minutes ago and still no Evanescence! Blasphemy!


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    your 360 is probably depressed by the fact that it's going to have to play such tripe, and is therefore hiding it from you

    I laughed.
    Sorry, but once Amy Lee destroyed Seether's "Broken", i lost all interest.

    I just got my xbox back,just thought that was worth mentioning :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,901 ✭✭✭Twilightning


    Finally there when I checked this morning! Not too hard on guitar, gold starred Bring Me to Life on my first try. Weight of the World had some tricky chord switches in it, though! I'll have to work on those.

    Gonna play them on drums later.

    I'm waiting for the Rock Band Unplugged songs to become available for download, dammit! Really wanna play Would? by Alice in Chains and Less Talk More Rokk by Freezepop, which was a blast in GHII. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,126 ✭✭✭✭calex71

    They're saving that for Guitar Hero: Emolicious.

    ... just in case of emergency and all that.

    I don't know how out of place i would sitting down while using the RB controller though. I've tried doing it for the first part of Free Bird on GHII. It didn't feel right.

    The sad thing is I wouldn't put it past Activision making a game exactly like that. They'd make bloody millions.

    I still use the GHII X-Plorers. :D Keeping it old skool.

    They can even have GH: Legends Of Emo! Guest starring Finch and Good Charlotte. Think of the awards!

    100G! So Emo, you could cry!

    The clacking helps me keep in time and my whammy bar just hangs down on my guitar, it still works grand if I hold it inbetween my fingers while I play. :D

    The GHIII Les Paul was the best one i had once i applied the manual fix to it, then the strum bar went on it and that was that.

    I then went through the X-Plorer, and 1 GHWT guitar. I'm not even that great on RB expert, but for someone who is considered a lightweight RB expert guitarist, i end up going through enough of the damn controllers lately. :(

    Im using the gibson explorer at the minute , but as im a lefty it hangs down in the way :mad:

    I was using blue tac to keep it in place but this warm weather has softened the blue tac rendering it usless :mad:

    Any tips :confused:

    That's a shame! What I seem to be going through right now are bass pedals. I broke my last one and asked HMV if I could get a replacement one, but they gave me a replacement kit instead. xD Only downside is I have to carry the old kit into town and bring the new one home. My new pedal just cracked today, so I'm gonna ring them up tomorrow and get another replacement. :P I'll reinforce the next pedal though.

    Roll on colder weather then i guess, so i can stop adjusting the bar during sustains that are long enough :P
    Or till i can afford a posh new RB beetles gretsch guiter with its sturdy lefty friendly bar.
