Guitar Hero: Metallica

2008-06-03 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 38 Comments
Following hot on the heels of groups as diverse as Aerosmith, bad ass metal giants Metallica will become the subjects of the second band-specific expansion pack in Activision's Guitar Hero series.

With Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and Guitar Hero World Tour (Guitar Hero IV) due for release in June and October respectively, Activision are aiming to release Guitar Hero: Metallica in the first quarter of 2009.

Metallica's only previous Guitar Hero appearance was 'One' (from 1988's ...And Justice For All) in Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock.

If you want to get specific about Metallica inclusions with video games "Blackened", "And Justice for All", and "Ride the Lightning" were available for purchase on Rock Band, but I guess that's a different thing.

I love Metallica but why cant they skip the whole band specific GH games? Why not make a GH with only tech death bands so the fucking kids will stop complaining on it for beeing to easy?

It would be hilarous if they had the songs from St. Anger, they would be so easy to do!

I don't see why they would announce this before they see how well the Aerosmith game does.

Lol, the Aerosmith idea was kind of stupid, as is this. I mean, I would probably only pick this up if I were a die hard fan.

"It'll probably just include **** from the Black Album, Load, and Reload."

Not at all, they'll just do the most popular songs, so they'll include everything.

This will be loads better then Aerosmith, but it's still a bad idea. They should try Rock The 90's, because Rock The 80's was a cool in-between idea, just do it again with the 90's, or 70's. This Message Edited On 06.03.08

I'd actually buy this depending on what tracks they choose. Seek and Destroy, Creeping Death, Master of Puppets and Blackened are a must and I'd be overjoyed to see Orion, The Four Horsemen and Fight Fire With Fire here. This will probably help the series recover for the plunge it will take after the Aerosmith bombs.

Activision has played off GH too much. Just make the individual band track as downloadable content and just stop re-selling the same game at full price.

"I mean like 12 and 13 year olds. I'm in the 8th grade"

So you're 14? I see how 1 year is a huge difference in music taste.(although it is a bit, depending who you are.)

Although the best way to make money is to do a GH: AC/DC because EVERY kid likes AC/DC. Especially in the South.

Most of them, anyways.
