More Guitar Hero 80s Tracks Announced
Activision has released information on eight more tracks from the upcoming Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s. In addition the previously announced songs, the company has now confirmed that the following glam and metal ballads will be available: "'Hold On Loosely' (as made famous by .38 Special), 'No One Like You' (as made famous by Scorpions), 'Only a Lad' (as made famous by Oingo Boingo), 'Radar Love' (as made famous by White Lion), 'Ballroom Blitz' (as made famous by Krokus), 'The Warrior' (by Scandal), 'What I Like About You' (as made famous by The Romantics), and 'Wrath Child' (as made famous by Iron Maiden)." Would have liked "Dead Man's Party" or "Weird Science" better from Boingo, but you can't have everything.
Could they have picked a worse Iron Maiden song?
Number of the Beast? Wasted Years? THE EVIL THAT MEN DO?
C'mon, seriously.
Peace sells, but who's buying?
Radar Love by White Lion? I guess that should have been Golden Earring.
But the distinct lack of really great songs as well as tons of "As made famous by..." really put me off. I suppose I can wait for GH3 for the Wii and hope the track list stays as top notch as the songs released already.
More tracks from what is probably the worst decade of popular music. Guitar Hero III looked to be shaping up fairly well as far as the tunes go, however.

Where's the Van Halen?
Where's the Bon Jovi?!
Where's the GUNS AND ROSES?!?!
(me wonders if Harmonix are really music fans)
"Where's the Van Halen?" Guitar Hero II "Where's the Bon Jovi?" Got me there. "Where's the GUNS AND ROSES?!?!?!" Again, Guitar Hero II. (me wonders if you've ever played either Guitar Hero)
