Garden_Pigeon Posted January 8, 2007 Author Posted January 8, 2007 More info people, Tomorrows the day for even more info, including a official release date. From TeamXbox: Tomorrow, RedOctane will be making a formal announcement to offer up some key details about the forthcoming Xbox 360 release of Guitar Hero II. Among them is the confirmation of a March 2007 ship date. The press release will indicate “over 70 finger-melting tracks,†though a person close to the company told TeamXbox that the game will include 74 on-disc songs—the 64 tunes that made up the PlayStation 2 Guitar Hero II song list, as well as 10 more that are exclusive to the Xbox 360 game. RedOctane’s announcement is expected to reveal five of them (and the artists that made them famous): * Billion Dollar Babies (Alice Cooper) * Dead! (My Chemical Romance) * Hush (Deep Purple) * Life Wasted (Pearl Jam) * Rock N Roll Hoochie Koo (Rick Derringer) TeamXbox was also told that three of the remaining five exclusives are Possum Kingdom (Toadies), Salvation (Rancid) and The Trooper (Iron Maiden), Screenshooters: Don't thank me
Domstercool Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 Oh 10 more songs? Cool! I'll probably buy this because I actually got the second one sent to me from Activision, it was a review copy, so I never paid for the second game. It wouldn't feel to bad actually buying the 360 one now.
Sooj Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 I found donkey konga a lot of fun so this should also been great. Not been a massive follower but everyone seems to be talking about it so I think I will just buy the 360 version
Domstercool Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 It does rock! It's all that is needed to be said. Owning both on the PS2 I've come to see the greatness of rocking out.
gmac Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 well seeing as I got both on the ps2 as well as 2 controllers there really is no point in getting this for the 360 unless I can get a cheap usb adapter that lets me use my ps2 guitars
arnold Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 I NEED this Game, it's the one game thats soley tempting me to buy a Ps2 again...I fecking Love Guitar Hero 1, never did get chance to play 2 though and when I did hear it was coming on the 360 I was sold Instantly and Damn it I want it I want it I want it I want it I want It I want it >> looks like March is the month I reactiveate my gold account and buy some points
KKOB Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Unless this game has online multiplayer it can crawl back up Harmonix's arse and die.
Zygo Ape Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Any news on the release date yet? Ill stop being lazy and check myself anyway. March would be perfect, 01 March for example.
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 March release date and Iron Maiden= win.
Garden_Pigeon Posted January 10, 2007 Author Posted January 10, 2007 Wow, The guitars wireless according to Microsoft.
Guest Stefkov Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 ign footage beyatches not watched it yet, downloading it now. cant see the underside, so we dont know whether that plug in the picture n the first post is still there.
4q2 Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 THE TROOPER ... IRON MAIDEN!!! Sold. Bah....Number of the Beast would have been preferable.
Hero-of-Time Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 http://www.achieve360points.com/game/guitarheroii/ Achievements for the game.
KKOB Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 just to be clear . . . this game doesnt have online multiplayer?
Charlie Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 It's got online something, we just don't know what I think...
KKOB Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 It's got online something, we just don't know what I think... doesn't it just use live for say leader boards and downloadable content? thats why it has the XBL logo on the box?
Guest Jordan Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 According to Red Octane, it could definitly be patched in the future.
KKOB Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 According to Red Octane, it could definitly be patched in the future. if and when it gets online multiplayer is when i become interested in this game again, the PS2 one is just over there *points* and cost me less.
Samdecahedron Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I'll be getting this, even though i have it for the PS2. Achievement points and online functions mean i can't miss this one. Plus, how cool does the guitar look!? As a side note, i literally just 5 minutes ago finally did Cowboys From Hell on Guitar Hero 1 on expert mode. WIN!
