Since Muse is here, I'd appreciate it's not that shitty song. Their last album totally sucks... Commercial Muse ahah. Something like Muscle Museum or Citizen Erased would be amazing.

Great to see Pumpkins though ! I can't wait to here their new album

News comes quick to the wiki, huh?

Guitar Hero III was officially announced by Activision and RedOctane on May 23, 2007 for the PS2, PS3, Wii and Xbox 360. There was no mention of the DS version, but the fall 2007 release date was reconfirmed. New wireless controllers based on Gibson's Les Paul (PS3, Wii, Xbox 360) and Kramer (PS2) models were also confirmed. Activision also avoided all mention of the title "Guitar Hero III," instead referring to the game as "the next Guitar Hero."[10] Also promised by Dusty Welch, head of publishing at RedOctane, are "new online and multi-player game play modes", and that "many of the top bands and songs we've tried to get in the past are now on board, and we've definitely got some giant aces in the hole to say the least,"[11]

And this next part might be more interesting too...
QUOTEIn addition, bands confirmed to be contributing to the game include:

  * Queens of the Stone Age[8]
  * Velvet Revolver[9]

Concerning other bands, Huang also stated in an interview, "We've got a lot of songs and artists still that we would love to have," Huang commented. "In particular, we've been trying to get Metallica, AC/DC, and Led Zeppelin. So hopefully sometime in the near future, my wish and everybody's wish will come true and we can get some of their music in the game."[12]

Kai has been an awesome dude since before the DDR days even

I hope the songlist becomes a bit more appealing soon...
Maybe i'm just spoiled by the ability to put custom songs in GH2

"Rock And Roll All Nite" as made famous by Kiss

Great traks for this time!!!!

 

[Darkforce]

They still havn't confirmed all the songs for Guitar Hero 80's yet!

Guitar Hero III will be fun, but... online mode, new songs and wireless controller asides I don't think it'll be too much different to Guitar Hero I and II. Same game... different songs. Not that that's a bad thing but with Rock Band due out this fall as well I know what I'm more excited about!

 

[BHK_Heartless]

I agree, Rock Band is the soul successor to GH, forget about GH its all for the money now :'(

 

[TLSpartan]

They better have Slither and/or Falling to Pieces by Velvet Revolver.

SLOW RIDE !!! THANK YOU !!! I love that song =D

I think they should have put God Gave Rock 'n Roll To You from KISS. I mean, it's more meaningful =/
