And people said Rock Band had better music.
Everything in the above post is opinion unless stated otherwise.
I love Van Halen..and I will probably still try out this game but couldn't this just have been sold as DLC? We need yet ANOTHER one-band release? Yes, I know there are also more bands on it but...damn...Activision seems so damn money hungry with these releases!
Mika: Where are you taking me, Gillian?
Gillian: To look at videos on YouTube...
Mika: *sigh* No more videos of a drunk Harry dancing with a dead Snatcher...
Giliian: Nope, it's better...Its LiquidPolicenauts YouTube Videos!
Gillian: And after that, you should also visit
The Policenauts Paradise and Snatcher Shrine
Hooray!! No Van Hagar!

this game should be pretty good
Autobots. Roll out.
I got bored of music games about a year ago... surprised nobody else has.
Should be fun for people who still like the genre though.

Track packs and DLC is the way to go.
I would usually agree, but playing as Van Halen is jusy WAY to appealing. They finally got me on this one, now if only there was a Guns N Roses one, that would be the only two I would ever need.
No Sammy, no buy. Activision is clueless DLC would have been the way to go from here. I haven't bought a GH game since Aerosmith, I'm done. Rock Band gets all of my money from here on out.
Guitar Hero Wham! is next.

Although i agree that a GnR one WOULD be awesome (again...could also just be DLC), they would probably just fuck it up and add stuff from the "fake" GnR of Chinese Democracy. Hey...maybe they'll think its "teh rockzzorz" and have a "battle of the guitar gods" between buckethead and slashI would usually agree, but playing as Van Halen is jusy WAY to appealing. They finally got me on this one, now if only there was a Guns N Roses one, that would be the only two I would ever need.*sigh* now I miss the real GnR even more
As for the single releases, I gotta say it again...why not just make it DLC?!? Hell, they could let you download the actual avatars to play as them IF you wanted to. GH:Aerosmith, Metallica, Van Halen, Guitar Hero 5, DJ Hero, etc. etc.etc....just too damn much already

I'm sure the problem with selling it as DLC is that fewer people would be buying. Most of the 'music gamers' that I know don't even have their consoles online.
A Rock Band style track pack would make more sense, but Activision prefers $60 price gouges over $30 track packs.
That would be a good idea, but when the servers die, so does the DLC.
Having the songs in a physical media is much better, IMO.

Got me so I cant sleep at night.They really got you? They really got you?
IMHO, there probably never will be a GH: G 'n R. Why? 'Cause there's no way in hell Axl will ever share more royalties w/Slash.
Here's a David Lee Roth game for ya...

Which one is Van again?
Selling collection, Atari through XBox. Send a PM with whatever games you're looking for.
my good sir, i refer you to chapter M (for metal) of 'the alphabet of manliness', page 100, figure 1 for those following at home:
(caption under a pic of hippies in a drum circle)
Figure 1: Do not stick you thumb out. This is the symbol for "love," which has nothing to do with getting rocked.
I can only say "meh." The musicians are all very talented technically in Van Halen, but their music never grooved me at all. I know some people would die for this band, but I always found their music somewhere close to pop rock with a technical flare.

The moral is, don't **** with Uncle Tim when he's been drinking!
Seems like Activision is milking the Francine...
How many damn games do we need
