One of the top metal bands of all time has entered the rhythm game wars. Guitar Hero Metallica is set to kill 'em all, and we've got your review. Does Metallica seek and destroy the competition, or do they merely fade to black? And what about the co-op? Would you be better off playing as one? Don't get frantic, just read the review!
So you have all these awesome plastic instruments laying around, and you've upgraded them all to be wireless. Tired of that ugly corded microphone for Rock Band or Guitar Hero? Wouldn't it be cool if those sexy new wireless microphones for Lips worked with the full band games?
This release almost slipped past us; we're not used to those weekend street dates! Let's hope you've been doing some wrist and calf strengthening exercises, because Guitar Hero Metallica is here! You and up to three co-op partners can now perform your best Metallica impersonations within the comfort of your own home. Remember, using the links below saves you money off retail, and also supports Co-Optimus!
Are you ready to make your wrists ache this weekend? Ewww, not doing that. I mean downloading and playing the Guitar Hero Metallica demo for the Xbox 360. The demo just came out on the Xbox Live Marketplace and weighs in at 1 GB.
A video just hit YouTube that was taken at some recent event which showcased Guitar Hero Metallica, the upcoming 4 player co-op Rhythm and Band game from Activision.
Shield your eyebrows because Guitar Hero Metallica is going to melt your face to 11 - or something like that. I mean...look at the FLAMES!!!
It's only been a few months since Guitar Hero World Tour was released, which means one thing. There's another Guitar Hero game right around the corner. No, not that one...this one.
It's not often we get to put up a link to Metallica's website, but that's our source for this news item. We'd previously reported a rumored list of songs for the upcoming Metallica-centric Guitar hero title, but now we have it straight from the horses mouth. If you like Metallica, you'd like the list. I'm a fan, and I'll probably be picking it up at some point, as my love for "Battery" is greater than my dislike for giving Activision my money. Also, "Fuel" is one of the songs, and my son, as a toddler, sang that song like this: "Gimme food, gimme fries, gimme something on the side!!" I feel that memory is funny enough that I just have to pick that same song up in rhythm game form!
For all you folks out there who think playing Drums on Expert in Rock Band 2 or Guitar Hero World Tour is too easy, we have some news for you! We hate to use Gamestop as a source, but if you check the pre-order page for Guitar Hero Metallica, you'll find something quite interesting.
Better grab a welding mask, because your face is about to melt. Activision has released the official trailer for Guitar Hero Metallica and it's not for the faint of heart. No ma'am, this isn't your average party game. Promising Metallica's "fiercest songs" I wouldn't expect this game to be for anyone other than the greatest of Guitar Heros.
We here at Co-Optimus generally prefer Rock Band to its older brother, the Guitar Hero series. That doens't mean we aren't stoked about the upcoming Guitar Hero Metallica. Due the first half of 2009, and available for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, and the venerable PS2, GH Metallica features a mix of Metallica songs (dur) as well as a few other bands. The latter include the Foo Fighters, Queen, Samhain, and Alice in Chains.
