A First Look at Guitar Hero Van Halen

[Vidboy10]

Those who ordered Guitar Hero 5 in September and took advantage of the free Guitar Hero: Van Halen offer are starting to get their game in the mail, offering a peek at something that's flown under the radar until now.

The game arrives in a promotion-copy-only sleeve, with the same advisory stamped on the disc so, no case and no full value for those who think they might flip it for cash or store credit. Recipients also found no evidence of the means to export Van Halen tracks into Guitar Hero 5, probably another resale-defeating mechanism. although who knows if this capability may be enabled once the game is fully on sale in the U.S. Dec. 22.

On the whole, the game appears to be based on Guitar Hero: Metallica, skinned for Van Halen. More pics and details at the link

Is it sad that I've yet to a single screenshot of gameplay of a game in a huge franchise that some people are already playing?

What is there to see? They're all the same game with different songs. lol Probably a new feature here or there but...mostly the same game...

trueeee....but still they havent even shown an image of any of the members. They usually whore the crap out of the 3d representations of celebrities. Not to mention they're literally handing the game away. This doesn't bode well for the game. Its either they expect the game sell out the ass anyways or dont expect the game to sell at all. Probably the first but hopefully the second.

it cant get dumped early as it will never be sold in stores or has a street date

all it said if that people will receive a copy of GH:VH free in oct. if you buy GH5 in sept.
and they already started shipping them

probably soon though expect to see a dump online

I would have liked Sammy Hagar in it.....

I liek VH but don't like them enough to buy this game.

Led Zeppelin: Rock Band pl0x. God pl0x.

 

[Joe88]

Guitar Hero Queen plz

and fix the dam normal controller problem
its fine for people too cheap to buy a mic but not fine for people too cheap to buy the guitar??? (well I have about 4 guitars, but want to play with the controller as its more challenging)

Harmonix are releasing a Queen 10-song pack. Add We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions from Lego RB and you got 12 Queen songs! Queen FTW

Led Zeppelin is awesome. Or maybe I should ask for a Aerosmith: Rock Band, with drums.

Led Zeppelin coems first.

I want a doubleneck controller this time, to suit with Jimmy Page.

And :crepe: ? :tasty:

Oh and what does the guitar for this game look like? Will it have a Frankenstein faceplate?

The present one doesn't hvae drums.... And don't have classics like "Janie's Got a Gun", "What It Takes" and "Angel". Fuck that. And it also doens't have my favourites off the newer albums.

And how do we play "Jump"'s Synth parts? The guitar? Wtf is this shit. Keyborads on guitar.

Can't since Fender and Charvel have the rights to the Frankenstein design since they, along with Peavey have created the Franken Strat guitar.
