    So they really did exclude all Sammy Hagar songs... That's 4 albums excluded, and another one if you include Van Halen III with Gary Cherone.

    Overall a good list. I'm disappointed that there's no "On Fire" or "Atomic Punk" though, both great David Lee Roth songs. Probably the two most metal ones as well, "On Fire" is nearly thrash metal.

    Atomic Punk is there. I think it's pretty decent if you are a Van Halen fan. I personally like Painkiller and End of Heartache. Those are fun to play on Expert +.

    This game took over my life for 4 freakin months.

      Whoops, I must've overlooked it . I wonder how they're going to chart the intro for it, or if they'll chart it at all.

      What a stupid question. "Van Halen fans, is their music good or are you just fans becuase it makes you look cool?"

      To answer your question anyway, why not read a couple of reveiws?

    I hate guitar Hero now. I don't know why they still think they are making money. I find their games to be rather stupid and boring now. I got the third one, and then switched to rock band, and loved both about the same, but RB2 pawns all. Especially in the main guitar hero ones not band specific, they have loads of songs that thousands and thousands out there including me have never even heard of accept for like 2.

      What? I'm pretty sure they would know if they were still making a profit or not lol.

      That's pretty sad if you've only heard 2 songs out of "thousands and thousands". There's actually only 600 or so, by the way.

      In all honesty though, the games are like exactly the same. I fail to see how you can hate Guitar Hero and yet love Rock Band when the gameplay is exactly the same. The only difference is the songlists, but that apparently doesn't impact you, considering you only know 2 songs.

        No, he had a point. Guitar Hero seems to be cranking out their games much too fast now. Instead of releasing incremental sequels with a wide array of songs like Rock Band has, they instead insist on releasing smaller band-specific games that only include that band's song and some special guest performances. Rock Band on the other hand offers up hundreds of songs all in the same game instead of making you buy multiple games for the same amount of songs.

          Yeah, like I said, it's just the songlists that are different. It's true that Rock Band makes it easier to obtain songs, but you still get what you pay for either way. It doesn't really constitute hating Guitar Hero over Rock Band when the only difference is how you obtain the songs. The gameplay is still exactly the same.

          It some respects, Guitar Hero's way of doing things is actually better. For one, it doesn't require an internet connection for the songs. It's also easier to promote an actual game, rather than just individual DLC. It's also kind of cool how you can follow the band through their career and stuff, and use them as playable characters. Also, I think it actually comes out cheaper to buy a disc than it is to download the songs. Rock Band songs are $2 each, while these band games are like $60 for around 50 songs.

          It just depends on your preference for obtaining the songs really... I still don't see how anyone can hate one game and not hate the other when the gameplay is still the same though. Maybe prefer one game over the other, but hate?

          You forget one thing - Rock Band's DLC allows you to chose what songs you want, where as Guitar Hero makes you pay $60 for 60-85 songs that you may only like half of. So really you pay $60 for, give or take, 30 good songs and 30 "shit" songs.

          All Activision knows how to do is manipulate the consumer into buying all their products because they say "and featuring *insert great, classic artist here*!! the best GH yet!!" People see the "GH" label on games and scramble to get it. I know one thing, they've done a great job of know how to get idiots to constantly keep buying all these pointless itterations.

          I'll admit it, they have good songs in there games, but there is also the high probability that those songs will be featured in Rock Band's DLC catalogue.

          Bottom line, HMX does better business for themselves as well as the fans while Activision doesn't give a shit and only knows how to milk everyone's wallets dry.

    Well as long as people keep buying, they'll keep milking the hell out of it. That's how it works with a company as big as Activision. Obviously games like Aerosmith, Metallica and Van Halen are all geared more towards a fanbase and a collectors item for them.
