Strange Cookie Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Ah, another spring, another band-specific GH. Which makes this... only the second, actually. I love the Guitar Hero-series and Metallica is a band that has the Guitar Hero-vibe written all over it. Aerosmith wasn't bad, but this is really how it should be done. Not that I've actually played the guitar-mode, mind. I'm a bassist. And don't dare to call a bass a mere guitar. People have been burnt to she stake for less, you know. Anyway, I can but reccomend this to all Guitar Hero-fans. Only if you really loathe Hetfield and his band of merry rockers should this be avoided. And for late GH-adopters: Europe has an exclusive GH:M + Metallica-guitar set. It's quite nice. It's just... not a bass. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganepark32 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I hate, like everyone else, the constant pilfering of the Guitar Hero franchise but this is one iteration I'll be picking up because Metallica are definitely a band who deserve their own title. Looking forward to playing the likes of For Whom The Bells Toll on friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 GH:Metallica might be a future potential purchase in my case. But not Aerosmith because I don't like them at all. TBH, I'm just waiting for Rock Band: Beatles. That one could be really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViPeR Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Been playing this since March as I imported lol. Been trying to get hold of drums cheap on Ebay but it's not going well. People seem quite happy to pay retail price on 2nd hand products (which is like everything on Ebay). I love it personally and i'm getting the hang of Hard mode, which bearing in mind I hadn't played much of guitar hero before this is pretty good. It's a lot of fun playing band mode, be even more fun playing people I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goron_3 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I can't wait to play Fuel, master of puppets and Orion (especially the bass solo). After exams i will definately be picking this up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey_T Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Cant wait for Orion and Fade To Black. Almost died when i found out they were in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViPeR Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 They are indeed very fun to play. For you guitar hero vets i'm sure it'd be even more fun. Question, what would be considered the better guitar. Pre GH3 with no slide or GH:WT with slide. I have a GH3 explorer but I find solos a bit hard and I can imagine the slide would make it easier but i've heard the strum bar sucks on the new style guitars.

Strange Cookie Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 Question, what would be considered the better guitar. Well, I don't really use the slider at all, but I think the GH:WT-guitar is the best of the bunch. Haven't had my hands on a Metallica-guitar, but I don't think it'll differ very much the WT one. Bith the GH3 and WT-guitar are just fine, but the WT feels... nices. Slightly better strum and fret-buttons too. It's funny how RB and GH keep on infecting eachother. I'm happy to see there finally is a meter that indicates when you get your next star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Not interested in GH but if I was I would definetly get this. Metallica are awesome. Saw them in Wembley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViPeR Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I saw them in Wembley too, and like god knows how many other places. I only got into it because of this game and it really is a lot of fun. I own a real guitar but it's not really a fair comparison. Guitar Hero is a game at the end of the day, it's no guitar sim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
