Your Song Featured in Guitar Hero II

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the psst-what's-a-wah-pedal dept.

JamesO writes "RedOctane has launched a competition in which budding musicians can get a song featured in Guitar Hero II." From the article: "To enter simply submit your song at beaguitarhero.com before 11:59 p.m. PST on June 30, 2006. There are a few rules that each entered song must adhere to though. The song must be from independent artists, must be an original piece, and must fall under the 'hard rock' or 'heavy metal' genre. The track must also feature a lead guitar. The winner will get their song featured in Guitar Hero II, plus will be eligible for additional publicity through the game's launch promotion." The winner also gets a kickass set of prizes, including a guitar, drumset, and wah pedal.

    The drumset is a confusing prize. What they should do is give away a drummer, bands never seem to be able to keep those. Drumsets are a dime a dozen, though.

    Can we get a Wii pedal instead? Maybe we Revolution owners want to play Guitar Hero too.

    It could be worse, Nintendo is released the "Wii" pedal and no one know what that does.

    I can't be the only one who thought, why are they putting Elton John's Your Song on this, can I?
