Slayer to be on GHIII

2007-08-02 by south_of_heaven 11 | 36 Comments
Recently it was announced that thrash kings Slayer have allowed the Guitar Hero series to feature one of their songs. That song, to no surprise, is "Raining Blood".

It will also feature Iron Maiden's "The Number of the Beast".

Get ready to be owned.

Im not a huge slayer fan, but NOTB is really awesome, so i look forward too that.

I hope they get more great songs like these for this GH, the majority of the songs on the others are subpar.

This game's tracklist is really looking good so far. I'm still putting my money on Rock
Band to be the better game though.

And did you really feel the need to make this a Slayer article? There were other songs
announced too you know.This Message Edited On 08.02.07

Yeah I'd imagine that playing triplets on guitar hero would suck terribly. I've only played the game once, I perfer real guitar. but it still seemed entertaining.

RAINING BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
FROM A LACERATED SKY

I've played a version of Raining Blood, and Angel of Death for that matter, and they are pretty damn fast. Be ready for some intense alternate shredding!This Message Edited On 08.03.07

theyll be harder on guitar hero, especially the triplets riffs of RIB. And that solo... have fun with that.

If you think Raining Blood will be hard, you probably haven't heard that DragonForce will be on GHIII...

If Dragonforce is on GHIII, it might outdo Jordan for the most ridiculous song ever.

Or they might simplify it.

Jordan still kills me on that damn solo, because they aren't sweeps they're trills :

"If Dragonforce is on GHIII, it might outdo Jordan"
I nearly had a brain aneurysm playing Jordan on hard. Holy fuck, I was just talking to one of my buddies and saying "Wouldnt that be hilariously hard if they put a DragonForce song on GH?"!
